This seems like a really stupid solution and I have no idea what the government’s thinking.

They’re not thinking. They’re in kneejerk mode, because of what happened in Victoria. Personally, I’d be surprised if the proposed legislation survived any examination by the courts.

I mean, they ran through a bunch of terror laws based on the explosive caravan hoax, and nobody’s talking about repealing those despite that.
For the child care stuff, the only things that I’ve heard that make sense are exchanging information between states so someone can’t just hop over the border to continue working with children (something proposed a decade ago after a previous royal commission), and having 2 pairs of eyes on the kids at any time. Everything else seems counterproductive.
