Abstract: An assembly of a container (1) and a child resistant closure (5) therefor. The container (1) has an external bead (3) on the neck (2) thereof and the closure (5) an inturned flange (8) on the skirt (7) thereof which makes snap engagement with the bead (3). The neck (2) of the container (1) comprises an external screw thread (4) while the skirt (7) of the closure (5) is locally severed or weakened to provide local deformable skirt portions (11) which can be deformed inwards by finger pressure thereon to enage thread portions (13) on the skirt portions (11) with the screw thread (4). The closure (5) is removable from the container (1) by deforming the skirt portions (11) to engage the thread portions (13) with the screw thread (4) by finger pressure thereon and rotating the closure (5) relative to the container (1) while maintaining said finger pressure.
