No more panic evacs from crisis-hit blocks

We are talking about extremes. The Vicinity building was briefly evacuated because there were structural flaws discovered around the same time that an earthquake was felt in Sydney.  Would you have told people to sit tight?

The Lacrosse block was evacuated in Melbourne after a cladding fire in which no one was injured. Would you have told them to move back in immediately?

Would you make the call that a building was relatively safe because it was “only” a fault in the fire protection system?

In January this year, a fire door in a block in the Bronx in New York was left open as a parent rushed to rescue his kids from a fire in their flat.   It was “only” a faulty or missing standard automatic door closure that failed yet 17 people died needlessly from smoke inhalation…

Nobody died at Mascot or the Opal. You have to draw a line somewhere.
