"It's almost impossible for authorities to regulate players, but the venues for recreational facilities are usually in fixed locations, so measures introduced to improve supervision are often more effective," he said.

There have been many cases in which venue operators have been ordered to bear the main responsibility for accidents, which could be a good lesson to remind such businesses to improve their safety management awareness. If not for such cases, operators might never read relevant rulings or examine cases, he said.

For example, a local court ordered the operator of an inflatable trampoline in Yucheng county, Henan province, to pay more than 300,000 yuan ($42,960) compensation to the family of a boy who was killed when the attraction was blown over by strong winds.

Zhang Min also called for tailor-made education about the relevant laws, especially for facility operators.

"This could be a pertinent solution to address low safety management awareness in the sector and further help to prevent accidents," he said.
