It uses the word endeavour, which means try, so not ' you must repair/make safe' just try to make safe, also it does make it conditional on the agreement of the user or owner, I'm pretty sure the ESC are in the real world and would expect a cost to be applied for works done, so if the owner/user won't pay, then you've every right to leave it.
