1. 1. absence of lifeguard trained in first aid and resuscitation equipment at swimming pools

   “practice guidelines issued by the Federation of British Tour Operators do not appear to include a requirement for the presence of a lifeguard at a swimming pool trained in first aid and the provisions of resuscitation equipment and rescue equipment in obvious and designated areas around a swimming pool.”

2. 2. expectation of lifeguard and equipment presence at swimming pools

   “British tourists will have an expectation that trained lifeguards, resuscitation equipment and rescue equipment are present at swimming pools, particularly at family hotels, both in the United Kingdom and in foreign countries.”

3. 3. lack of emergency procedures and equipment at hotels and resorts

   “The best practice guidelines issued by the Federation of British Tour Operators do not refer to emergency procedures at hotels and resorts. The availability of emergency procedures and emergency equipment at hotels and resorts are necessary to reduce a risk that future deaths will occur unless action is taken.”
