Description of content: Proposal
for uniform legislative framework of fire protection requirements. Adjusted
to the European fire protection requirements it contains no regulations
included in any European standard localised in Hungary. The draft is structured
in accordance with the following: Chapter I: General provisions, Chapter II:
Interpretive provisions, Chapter III: Safety objectives and planning
principles, Chapter IV: Classification according to fire hazard and fire risk
categories, Chapter V: General structural requirements, Chapter VI:
Protection against spread of fire, Chapter VII: Requirements of establishment
subject to function, Chapter VIII: Evacuation, Chapter IX: Requirements to
ensure intervention by fire fighting units, Chapter X: Protection against
heat and smoke, Chapter XI: Split-open structures, Chapter XII: Fire
protection of special structures, Chapter XIII: Electronic and lightning
protection equipment, Chapter XIV: Common rules related to fixed fire alarm
and fire fighting equipment, Chapter XV: Rules related to fixed fire alarm
equipment, Chapter XVI: Rules related to fixed fire fighting equipment,
Chapter XVII: Requirements of establishment related to the storage and
measurement of combustible liquids and gases, Chapter XVIII: Rules of use,
Chapter XIX: Rules of use for combustible liquids and gases, Chapter XX:
Monitoring, maintenance and review, Chapter XXI: Fire protection technical
compliance handbook, Chapter XXII: Closing provisions.

Objective and rationale, including the
nature of urgent problems where applicable: The practical use of the fire protection norms requires continuous
review and, if necessary, modification of the regulation specifying the fire
protection requirements. The effective regulation has been amended on several
occasions, making it impossible to appropriately follow the technical
developments and the domestic adoption of the EU standards, while its
structure and some of the requirements have become outdated. Instead of
repeated amendments there is need for a regulation based on a completely new
approach. The draft mainly focuses on the expected level of security and the
actual characteristics without specifying the technical solution ensuring the
required security level, its establishment or features. These must be defined
by the designer, thus increasing the freedom of design.
