Under the Child Safe Scheme, certain child-related organisations (and all Councils) in NSW must put into action the Child Safe Standards recommended by the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse.
Council welcomes this scheme and we are committed to implementing the Child Safe Standards across all areas of Council to ensure the safety, wellbeing and empowerment of all children and young people within our care and who access our services.
Child Safety is a shared responsibility and it’s important that we all do our part to keep children safe from harm and to report and respond to child safety concerns if they arise.
