"Minister for Community Services Linda Burney said that the Government has committed over $80,000 per annum over three years to Kidsafe NSW’s Playground Advisory Service, NSW’s principal agency for playground safety and development.
"It’s important that parents can feel confident their child is safe when they are in a child care centre or preschool," Ms Burney said.
"The Playground Advisory Service will use the funding to provide children’s services with technical, safety and design information, resources and support on playground safety issues.
"For example, the service will train staff at childcare centres, preschools and other children’s services in playground safety, inspection, maintenance and design."
