HC Deb 26 May 1994 vol 244 c293W
Mr. Jamieson

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what measures his Department is taking to ensure the safety of children participating in activities at outdoor activity centres in Northern Ireland.

Mr. Ancram

All schools were circulated with detailed guidance on "Safety in Outdoor Education" in November 1989.

Northern Ireland is represented on the steering group, set up following the announcement on 11 November 1993 by my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Education. This group will shortly be publishing further guidance in respect of safety in outdoor activity centres.
