Section 3: NSW Children and Young Persons (Care and Protection) Act 1998 3.1 Care and protection legislation: principles 1. Role of legislation Show PowerPoint 3.1: NSW child protection legislation which outlines the child protection legislation relevant to this training, a brief outline of the relevant content of the legislation and the NSW government legislation website. Many aspects of child protection practice in NSW are determined by NSW law. Although there are some moves towards national approaches to child protection, (such as the National Framework for Protecting Australia’s Children 2009-2020: Protecting Children is Everyone’s Business) legislation in relation to child protection is currently state based. It is important to understand what the law says, as it may direct or restrict responses to children and young people at risk and understanding the legal framework can make it easier to understand workplace requirements. The training will deal largely with matters that relate to the Children and Young Persons (Care and Protection) Act (referred to in the remainder of this manual as the Act). The Act also deals with a number of matters that will not be discussed during the training such as the children’s court, children’s employment and out-of-home care. Refer to Handout 7: Children and young persons (Care and Protection) Act 1998 fact sheet. 2. Definitions Use PowerPoint 3.2 Definitions to explain that the terms child and young person will be used when referring to care and protection matters because in some matters care and protection law differs based on age (e.g. living independently, sexual activity). Care and protection matters will be the major focus of the training. Facilitator’s note: Later in the training, reference will be made to the definition of child in the Commission for Children and Young People Act and the Ombudsman Act, where child/children is/are defined as 0-17 years. 3. Principles, Participation and Partnership Use PowerPoint 3.3 to review some key points about the principles that underpin the Children and Young Persons (Care and Protection) Act, 1998. PowerPoint 3.3: Guiding principles for care and protection highlights an amendment to S.9 in 2010 emphasising that the safety, welfare and wellbeing of the child/young person is paramount, and Keep Them Safe CHCCHILD401A – Facilitator’s Manual © The NSW Technical and Further Education Commission (TAFE NSW – Industry Skills Unit, Meadowbank, 2010) 23
