The Policy says that each club needs a Child Welfare Officer (CWO). Can the club instructor be the CWO?
• A. It is clear from the spirit of the Policy that the CWO should be someone other than the club instructor. It is therefore preferable that the role of CWO be taken by someone else. However, there is nothing in the letter of the Policy which explicitly stops the instructor from being the CWO. But the instructor must be assisted at all times by at least one other adult who has been CRB checked.
