Regulation 23 — Safeguarding health, safety and welfare of child

  • General Safety: 1. Garda vetting was available for one adult.

An exit door situated in the dining room where children from the Toddler 1 and Toddler 2 rooms ate their meal had a low level, thumb-turn lock which could be opened by a child.
