Comments:
Many of the other headings refer to elements of risk, but this data item should cover flags like "Visit in pairs" which may be held by planning enforcement, community safety etc.
In general, property-specific hazards and risks are poorly communicated between services. One approach might be to have a hazard/risk flag, with contact details of the person/team/service who holds details, so anyone needing to visit the property can be given whatever detail they legitimately need and are entitled to.
This might be a high priority data item for the "digital firebox", as the details about the risk could be kept secure but immediately available in casses of legitimate need.
