Working with Children Check Act 2000

The chief executive withdraws an application by giving the applicant a notice (a withdrawal notice) that states the application is withdrawn.

The chief executive must give a withdrawal notice to the applicant if, before the application is decided—

the applicant withdraws the application under section 196; or

the chief executive is permitted or required, under this part, to withdraw the application.

If the application is a working with children check application, the chief executive must also give a withdrawal notice to each notifiable person and potential employer for the applicant.

A withdrawal notice must state the reason for the withdrawal.
