Re: CHCCHILD401A Identify and respond to children and young people at risk
Hi Kim,
I think for this question you will need to refer to the Child Protection Act 1999 for the definition of child abuse. In the legislation it refers to the NQS quality area 2- Children's Health and Safety, however it doesn't give the information you are after. In regards to the legislation on child abuse it will refer back to the Child Protection Act so I think you can use the information detailed in there itself.
Here is the link for info on the Child Protection Act 1999:
