Legal frameworks including the Family Violence Act 2018 and Privacy Act 2020 support this, emphasizing child protection over confidentiality.
Agencies are encouraged to share relevant, current information across sectors—such as schools, health services, and social work—to improve outcomes, especially in urgent situations.
Decision-making should prioritize the child’s best interests, with clear communication and careful consideration of sensitivity and accuracy.
