CHILDCARE - SITE VISITS AND SPOT CHECKS
I have a supplementary question. Has it always been the case that no prior notice of site visits has been given? Mr D.A. TEMPLEMAN

AnswerView source ↗

My understanding is that spot checks are random. Random visits are made to examine the way the centres operate and to ensure that staffing ratios are adhered to and that adequate quality of care is provided to the children in the centres.
