HC Deb 15 December 2003 vol 415 cc668-9W
Mr. Goodman:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills whether schools are obliged to publish risk assessments in relation to school trips. [143534]

Mr. Ivan Lewis

[holding answer 11 December 2003]: The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 require employers (local education authorities for most schools in England) to tell employees about the measures taken to manage risk. There is no requirement to publish the risk assessment.
