Does the authorised supervisor ever have to submit a medical certificate?
A. Licensees may choose to request a medical certificate in order to assist them in assessing the applicant’s ability to meet the requirement of Clause 15(2)(d) ‘fit and proper person’. The Regulation does not require the applicant for authorised supervisor to provide a medical certificate as part of the ‘prescribed documents’ outlined in clause 15(7). There may be circumstances in which the Director General may require a medical certificate concerning a proposed authorised supervisor during the processing of an application. Section 206(4) of the Children and Young Persons (Care and Protection) Act 1998 provides further information about this. Refer to Clause 15 – Authorised supervisor and section 206(4) of the Children and Young Persons (Care and Protection) Act 1998.
