Screening Checks

In reply to the Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (23 September 2020).

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services): I have been advised:

The South Australia Police have advised that since the commencement on 1 July 2020 of provisions relating to working with children checks under Child Safety (Prohibited Persons) Act 2016, twocautions have been issued.

The commonwealth government has jurisdiction over aged and National Disability Insurance Scheme worker screenings, which includes investigation and enforcement of any breaches of these requirements.
