77 Working with children card details required in relation to certain individuals

(1) Section 195D of the Family Assistance Administration Act is modified so that, within 2 years after the commencement day, details of working with children cards are only required to be given to the Secretary in respect of the following individuals: (a) an individual who is a person with management and control of the approved provider (within the meaning of section 194F of the Family Assistance Administration Act); (b) an FDC educator; and (c) an IHC educator. (2) To avoid doubt: (a) subsection (1) means that any reference in these Rules or the Secretary’s rules to the requirement in section 195D of the Family Assistance Administration Act is taken to be a reference to that section as modified; and (b) subsection (1) does not alter any legal requirement to hold a working with children card under a law of a State or Territory and, even where details are not required to be given to the Secretary, where an individual who is required to hold a working with children card is involved in providing child care by a child care service and does not hold a card, the approved provider will be in breach of the condition for continued approval referred to in subsection 195A(4) of the Family Assistance Administration Act.
