Description

The Early Learning Commission, led by Daryl Currie, is set to implement new powers in the new year to better regulate the childcare sector. These powers include suspending staff under investigation from all early learning sites and closing facilities that pose a risk to children. The commission aims to prioritize childrens safety and rights, following a parliamentary inquiry and media investigations that exposed transparency issues and safety incidents. Currie assures parents of a more active regulatory approach, with actions being proportionate and reasonable.
