In the recently published ACT Education Directorate’s Annual Report 2020-21, information was published about the Regulatory Authority's compliance activities under the National Law. According to the Report, the Children’s Education and Care Assurance (CECA) in 2020-21,assessed 1,516 notifications of incidents or complaints at services (the ACT has 370 services). Of those notifications, 49 matters were investigated. Other matters were managed appropriately by the providers or were not relevant to the National Law. At the end of June 2021, approximately 19 investigations were in progress. 49 investigations were closed during the year, of which five were carried over from 2019-20. Major areas of investigation were allegations of harm to children, non-compliant staffing arrangements, inadequate supervision and missing or unaccounted for children. In relation to compliance action, CECA had taken 128 compliance actions as at 30 June 2021. Compliance actions ranged from administrative letters; conditions on provider or service approvals; enforceable undertakings; emergency action notices; compliance directions; compliance notices, suspensions or cancellations of provider or service approvals; and prohibition of individuals.

The Rioact website also published a story on the report.
