Reporting gas incidents

Death or major injury in connection with liquefied petroleum gas

If you are a distributor, filler, importer or supplier of flammable gas and you learn, either directly or indirectly, that someone has died or suffered a specified or major injury in connection with this gas, then this must be reported immediately.

If you are an installer of gas appliances, and registered in the UK with the Gas Safe Register, you must provide details of any gas appliances or fittings that you consider dangerous to an extent that people could die or suffer a specified injury.
