Ombudsman for Children's Annual Report 2022: Office of the Ombudsman for Children

Dr. Niall Muldoon:

No, it is not being drafted. Usually with small pieces like this, as the Senator will know, we are probably looking at adding to something. We are trying to find Bills that we can use around it. The Child Care Act 1991 is being considered. We are not sure. However, many other ones are being looked at as well. It is about always trying to be prepared when an opportunity comes. That is probably what we will be doing.
