Republic of Mauritius: Education Health and Safety Term Paper by Nicky

This paper explains that, although the Republic of Mauritius has advanced in some areas of economic and social development, the area of health and safety regulations in schools still need to be improved. Next, the author provides background information about Mauritius, the working of the U.N. Development Assistance program and the qualitative literature review methodology used in this study. The paper concludes that earlier food and drug acts in the Republic of Mauritius, which were once appropriate, are now out of date and require changes in the food control system in schools especially in the areas of technology, administration and enforcement.
