Investigators found rat poison, bleach, unsecured water features, blocked exits, and dangerous bookshelves at two sites — all after April warnings from Victorian regulators. This action follows new 2023 legislation empowering the government to cut funding for non-compliant centers, with over 115 notices sent out since. Nearly 50 centers fixed issues, seven surrendered licenses voluntarily. Education Minister Jason Clare emphasized these aren’t empty threats — this funding cut proves the government will enforce safety with teeth. Parents were notified earlier this week, and the suspension takes effect July 4.
