Working with Children Check Act 2000

The chief executive must withdraw a working with children check application if the applicant is charged with a serious offence or disqualifying offence.

If the applicant is charged with a disqualifying offence, a withdrawal notice given under section 195 because this section applies must state that—

for a notice given to the applicant—it is an offence for the applicant to start or continue in restricted employment; or

for a notice given to a notifiable person or potential employer for the applicant—it is an offence for an employer or potential employer to employ, or continue to employ, the applicant in restricted employment.
