1) How many fires involving balconies occurred in total between 1st August 2023 and 31st July 2024?
2) In the same period, how many fires occurred where balconies were found to have contributed to the spread of the fire across the external walls?
3) Please provide data on the causes of any fires that started on balconies in the period (ie; barbecue, discarded cigarette, electrical appliance fault, etc.)
4) The number of occurrences for each cause.
Suppose your incident recording system does not include "balcony" as a recorded location. Could you please perform a search on free text fields in your database for the term, as I have found in the past that this often returns useable data.
