Well..

One answer would be to use PIN secured printing and/or a stored job for sensitive information, thus ensuring that the individual printing the material is actually present when the printing happens which minimises the opportunity for mixing print jobs up.

I've fallen and I can't get up...

300lbs load, rough terrain, no arm assist... better hope you fall backwards...

Also, going prone or even to one knee looks like a big problem there.

And shoulder or boom mounted heavy weapons? Recoil would at least ensure they went onto their backs, I suppose.

Sure they've thought of all this though. Must just be missing something in the pics, I'm sure. The military never buy in next to useless kit, after all.

Genuinely curious...

"at present anyone aged 16 or older who frequently or intensively does regulated activity with children or vulnerable adults must ISA-register."

How do sixth-formers (um... is that year 12 and 13 now?) fit in with all of this? How about They are after all, in many schools, a body of currently un-vetted individuals over the age of 16 who may well have regular and occaisionally even *un-supervised* contact with children. And what about year 11 students who have already turned 16?
