The Coalition Government is committed to ensuring we have the best arrangements in place to protect children and families from harm.

Under the Child Sex Offender Disclosure Scheme, members of the public are able to make an application for information to the police about a particular individual who has contact with a child, or children, in order to prevent harm.
