My son is a Tenant with a housing association and shares a small apartment block with three other Tenants. He has been told that Fire regulation do not allow him to have a door mat. Is this true?

It depends if it is a trip hazard or not, if it is outside his front door and other tenants escaping a fire could trip over it then it needs to be removed. If it is inside his flat the fire regulations do not apply and it is up to him.
