Environmental health officers will contact key holders first and ask them to attend to the alarm. Alternatively they may have to obtain a warrant to break into the property to disable the alarm. The property will be left properly secured. Any costs incurred (ie locksmith’s charges etc) will have to be paid by the owner or occupier.
