His Excellency the Lieutenant-Governor, with the advice of the Executive Council, has made the following Regulation under the Child Protection (Working with Children) Act 2012.

Minister for Family and Community Services

Explanatory note
It is the duty of a reporting body (as defined in section 35 of the Child Protection (Working with Children) Act 2012) to notify the Children’s Guardian of the name and other identifying particulars of any child-related worker against whom the reporting body has made a finding that the worker has engaged in certain specified conduct. However, where the finding was made before 3 July 1995, transitional arrangements provide that the duty does not apply unless the Children’s Guardian directs otherwise.

This Regulation is made under the Child Protection (Working with Children) Act 2012, including section 52
