24 Surrender of clearances or death of holder

(1) The holder of a working with children check clearance may, with the consent of the Children's Guardian, surrender the clearance at any time.

(2) The Children's Guardian must not consent to the surrender of a clearance if the Children's Guardian is of the opinion that it is likely that there is a risk to the safety of children if the holder were to engage in child-related work.

(3) The Children's Guardian must, as soon as practicable after consenting to the surrender of a clearance, cancel the clearance and give written notice of that cancellation to each person that the Children's Guardian reasonably believes to be a notifiable person in relation to the holder of the clearance.

(4) The Children's Guardian must terminate the working with children check clearance of a holder if notified of the holder's death.
