(2) The conditions are that—
(a)the lift or the safety component for lifts in respect of which the relevant notice was served neither—
(i)presents a risk; nor
(ii)contravenes any requirement of these Regulations; and
(b)the relevant notice was not served because of neglect or default by a relevant economic operator.
