This Northern Territory compliance report documents four child care service investigations conducted between June 2024 and February 2025 under section 47G legislation. The cases reveal substantive compliance failures including unenforced gap fee payments, improper staff discounts, and failure to report persons with management control. One service triggered investigations due to extreme risk indicators including high child absences and relative fee costs. The Department issued compliance letters to all identified providers, with outcomes including updated working with children checks, corrected fee reporting, and improved documentation of management personnel. One case involved a Community Child Care Fund Restricted service operating outside the national law framework, managed collaboratively between department contract managers and the CCCFR program manager. All four cases were resolved through correspondence and follow-up meetings, with no escalated enforcement actions documented.
