How did the lack of an official EWS1 register contribute to the current situation, and what are the broader systemic implications for fire safety in the UK?

The actions of Adam Kiziak, whose company Tri Fire issued a significant portion of EWS1 certificates, highlight flaws in the system for verifying fire safety in high-rise buildings. The lack of an official register for EWS1 certificates makes it difficult to track and verify their authenticity, leaving buyers vulnerable. The incident also underscores the potential impact of individual actions within the construction and finance industries on the broader housing market and consumer trust.
