That advice - to stay in their flats in the case of fire - ?
Where did that come from ?
The first thing that is drummed into you from workplace fire drills is drop/stop everything you are doing and evacuate immediately.

Each flat should be self contained for fire and should stop it for 30 minutes or so. The fire brigade don't want people trying to get out whilst they're trying to get up the staircase to put the fire out.

Obviously workplaces aren't isolated in the same way.

You still have fire doors etc. Even in a hospital with patients the plan is to move sideways through each set of fire doors away from a fire before having to move down
