Working with Children Check Act 2000

This section applies if, immediately before the commencement, a working with children check application had not been decided or withdrawn.

The application must be decided under new chapter 8, part 4, division 9.

Subject to subsection (4), anything done in relation to the application under former chapter 8, part 4, division 9 or former chapter 8, part 5, division 8 is taken to have been done in relation to the application under new chapter 8, part 4, division 9.

If the chief executive invited submissions from a person under former section 229 and the person made submissions to the chief executive, whether before or after the commencement, the chief executive may either—

give the person a written notice under new section 235 and consider any submissions made by the person under that section; or

issue a working with children authority.

If the chief executive gave the applicant a notice mentioned in former section 198(a) and on the commencement the time for complying with the notice has not ended, former section 198 continues to apply to the person and the chief executive as if the amendment Act had not been enacted.
