When will we get a change in the law on unmanned tanning salons?

Yet another case in the media of a child suffering horrific burns as a result of using a sunbed at an unmanned salon.

I have repeated BMA policy and what we want to see happen to prevent more instances of this countless times on this blog so I won't recount it all again. But really, when will we get a ban in place on these types of premises and how many more youngsters have to go through such serious injuries before something is done?

There is something terribly amiss with the law, if a child aged just 10-years-old can access these type of places, which can have such potentially damaging consequences for their health.
