CHCPRT001 - Identify and respond to children and young people at risk

Hi everyone, Just needing some help with this last question for the written assignment. The scenario is disclosure by a child of sexual abuse by a staff member in OSHC and the question is:
As an educator reporting this incident, you would initially report this incident to your OSHC Coordinator (in which they would report to the regulatory authority).
In the circumstances you cannot get in contact with your OSHC Coordinator (as it is after hours), who should you contact and within what time-frame?


I then need to provide the following info (shown exactly as in the assignment):
Who do you contact? (Agency name)
Contact details (phone):
Time-frame to contact:


I've looked both in the provided RTO learner guide and additional documents, as well as googling and can not find anything except to report to the regulatory authority in the relevant state. Is this how I should answer the question or am I missing someone?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
