Daniel's Law honours Daniel Morcombe, whose tragic disappearance in 2003 transformed child safety in Queensland. Inspired by the Morcombe family's tireless advocacy, this law ensures families can access accurate, responsible information about certain child sex offenders. Its purpose is clear: to help safeguard children, uphold privacy, and use information lawfully and respectfully, so no family endures what Daniel's family experienced.
