§ 22. Dr. D. Johnsonasked the Minister of Education what steps he is taking to give guidance to children of school age in respect of the elementary principles of home safety.
§ Mr. Geoffrey LloydI am sending my hon. Friend a copy of my Department's handbook of suggestions for teachers on health education, which includes a section on accidents at home.
§ Mr. HastingsIs the right hon. Gentleman aware of the enormous success of instruction in schools on road safety, especially when it is given by uniformed policemen? Could something of the sort be given to children in elementary schools by some specialists in home safety?
§ Mr. LloydThat is primarily a matter for the local education authorities, but I think it is an interesting idea.
