When I had my inspection it was advised that I put a stair gate at the top of the stairs as the Lo's slept upstairs.

I only have one at the bottom of the stairs as upstairs isn't used, I also have one on the kitchen door so that I don't have to put locks on the cupboards or draws this just stops them going in.:thumbsup:

I would have one if you intend to use it in future and I think it is a good idea as it shows you have risk assessed and put it into practice. It all depends on the accessibility of the stairs. The key is - risk assess first - as if you are minding. :thumbsup: and if any risk presents itself - cover it :thumbsup:
