[QUOTE="apprentice87, post: 332597, member: 13534"] I think you would have an obligation to inform the client, but as for doing something about it, no law can make you do that.... Say you found a dangling cable, would you drill holes in a wall to secure it?? That would be criminal damage. As for any "duty to act if you see something dangerous" does that mean i can go round inspecting the neighbours cars and impounding them if their tyres are not very good, or can i just wander into the local factory and pull the fuses if i think their wiring is not too clever?? I am going to McDonalds later, can i tell all the customers to leave because the potentially hot food might burn them.... Here is a better example; Say i take my car to a garage to have a new set of plugs. Is the garage obliged by law to fit new tyres and adjust the brakes while they are at it?? of course not. john..
