Safety considerations

10.4.1.1

  1. In the organisation of all Scouts activities, priority must be given to considerations of safety in what clothing is worn.  
  2. Weather conditions, especially heat, cold and rain, must be taken into account. The practical comfort and well-being of members must take precedence over formality. A coat or other overgarment (preferably navy blue) should be worn when weather conditions require it to make sure members feel comfortable, including on formal occasions.
