by jpkeates

There is a specific requirement that the tenant has to agree to receive those particular documents in writing and provide an email address to do so.

Keeping my suspicious mind in gear, you could be right.... if they have asked for a rail and then months later they '' fall'' due to a lack of rail..... could the take legal action ? Maybe, i assume you have landlords insurance with 3rd party liability etc.
