Hi,
This is my first post so please be gentle ...
I live in a ground floor flat that is served by what i believe to be a TNS supply in the communal hallway. Having read around these forums, I'm fairly sure the earth is soldered to the lead sheath and is then joined on a small MET, where the earth cables are distributed. These are then clamped to the two separate metallic sheathed supplies for each flat.

My queries are:
Firstly is this safe? And if not who should address it the electricity supplier or an electrician?
Southern gas have recently moved my gas meter outside without bonding to it in anyway. Should the MET be used to provide the main conductive bonding or the earth bar in my CU?
thanks - Colin
