The purpose of this rule is to establish procedures used by the Commission for Independent Education (Commission) for receiving complaints of failure to report child abuse, abandonment or neglect, as required by section 30.205, F.S., and assessing a fine. Nonpublic college, university and school administrators and their law enforcement agencies are required to report information received about child abuse, abandonment or neglect that occurred on institution property or at an event sponsored by the institution to the Florida Department of Children and Family Services. This rule defines the terms “administrator,” “commission” and “law enforcement agency.” The effect of this rule is that if an institution’s administrator or law enforcement agency is informed of child abuse, abandonment or neglect and does not report it, or knowingly and willingly prevents another person from doing so, the institution shall be subject to a fine of $1 million by the Commission.
