Pointing out to them that MCNs are different to old style cloth probably won't help much. They need to cover their own backsides, and unfortunately the new rules in QLD that require any breaches in regs to be published have meant that Department representatives seem to be out there actively looking for people to slip up so they have something to publish.

It sucks, I know. I work[ed] in Qld childcare and I struggled against this. I will be threatening not to go back if I can't use my nappies. But it's definitely easier in some places than others.

Can you send fitteds and covers instead? That would cover them and you, and only involves one layer of PUL.
