Scope

This Standard sets out options for the location of safety barriers intended to restrict the access of young children to swimming pools.
NOTES:
1 Public swimming pools have different human dynamics, such as access for people with disabilities, increased gate usage, crowd behaviour and supervision, and the duplication of the requirements of this Standard may not always be appropriate.
2 Guidance on factors to be considered in selecting the location of barriers is given in Appendix B.
