The Department for Education and the Welsh Government have launched a consultation into propsals to update and simplify legislation on safeguarding children involved in performances. Issues covered include: clarifying when a local authority licence is required for a child to take place in a performance, streamlining the licensing process, and looking at the maximum number of children that a chaperone can be responsible for. The closing date is 3 August 2012. |
