571A Transitioning to issuing working with children card for exemption that includes holder’s photograph
This section applies if, within 6 months after the commencement, the chief executive approves an application for a person to which section 571 applies.
Despite section 289, a working with children exemption is issued to the person for the term that ends 3 years after the commencement.
The chief executive may comply with section 290A for the person’s working with children exemption by issuing the person an exemption card that the chief executive would have issued before the commencement to a person who holds a positive exemption notice.
The document mentioned in subsection (3) is taken to be a working with children card issued to the person under section 290A for the person’s working with children exemption.
Despite schedule 7, definition working with children card, it does not matter that a document issued under subsection (3) does not include—
a photograph of the person; or
the expiry date of the person’s working with children exemption.
