and
(b)
consider a range of measures for detecting those fires and explosions in the
event that they do occur; and
(c)
consider a range of measures for eliminating those potential fires and
explosions, or for otherwise reducing the risk arising from fires and
explosions; and
(d)

systems for the detection, control and extinguishment of —
