IMMEDIATE SUPERVISION
No matter how old you are, if you do not have a firearms
licence but want to use a firearm, you may do so only under the
immediate supervision of someone who has a firearms licence.
In other words, the person with the licence must be with the
shooter, and close enough to take control of the firearm if
necessary. To meet this requirement the supervisor cannot be
using a firearm at the same time. Generally, this means that
there will be only one firearm between the two people.


Close enough to take control of the firearm if necessary. Unless you deem kicking it out of their hands as acceptable then I would suggest that 'within arms length' is correct.
