The Owner or Occupier of premises where the accident occurred is required to do all that is reasonable to protect lawful visitors to their premises from harm. Despite this duty avoidable accidents frequently occur including at swimming pools, shops, restaurants etc. All businesses should be protected in respect of these accidents by public liability insurance and so should most private homeowners and landlords.
