I too am completely stumped with the question.

There are many acts. Are they wanting us to label what acts are in childcare and how they influence the WHS?

From my understanding through each point above you need to find the relevant WHS information...

For example, the act they are referring to may be: WORK HEALTH AND SAFETY ACT 2011

If you type "WHS Childcare" in Google you may be able to find more information...
