(1) An institution has
a duty to take all reasonable steps to prevent the abuse of a child by a
person associated with the institution while the child is under the care,
supervision, control or authority of the institution.
(2)
Subsection (1) does not apply to abuse of a child by a person
associated with an institution in circumstances wholly unrelated to that

has delegated, by means of contract or otherwise, the care, supervision,

institution, subsection (1) does not apply to abuse of the child by a
person associated with the delegate institution in circumstances wholly
unrelated to that person's association with the delegator institution or the
