Mike,
I attended the YPT training session last night. While course material
were quite good, there are differences in the presention. For example;
The information we we given last night states that the incident should be
reported to the Scout Executive and makes no mention of notifying the police
or child welfare.
The Second Adult seems to be a reasonable idea, although our Council
makes no mention of it.
YIS,
Martin
