Criterion GMA101

The following are prominently displayed at the service:

  • the service’s current licence certificate; and

  • the name and contact details of a person who parents, whānau and visitors can contact for questions about the service and/or to make a complaint about the service’s operation.

Guidance

How to show you are complying

You must prominently display your service’s current licence and the name and contact details of the person who people can speak to if they have questions or want to make a complaint.

You could display this information in your entrance area or on a noticeboard, so they are prominently displayed.

Prominently displayed means the licence and contact details should be in an obvious and conspicuous place that parents, whānau and visitors can easily see.
