Compliance Enforcement Strategy 2018-2019

2. Who we are

BCS supports employees, employers and the community to understand and comply with all the obligations imposed by the WWC Act which are necessary for the protection of children and young people.

BCS lies within the portfolio of the Department of Justice and Attorney-General (the Department).

BCS works closely with QPS to ensure significant compliance matters are addressed appropriately. The Blue Card Operations Leader (BCOL) is a QPS officer with the rank of Detective Senior Sergeant from the State Crime Command who is embedded within BCS. The BCOL performs the role as the state liaison between the two agencies to assess the release of investigative information. Duties include assisting with compliance actions, investigations and prosecutions as well as managing blue card offences for the state of Queensland.
