How could an illegal daycare facility be operating without detection?

Dear Editor,
Following on the recent fires at two children’s facilities comes another disaster at an illegal daycare service facility.
It is posited that the facility is unregulated/unregistered, operating illegally. From all accounts the two assistants left in charge of babies and children did not have the requisite training and know-how to deal and respond to the crisis situation that visited them. They flew into panic mode.
How an illegal entity could have been allowed to operate, after similar occurrences at such facilities is beyond understanding? And here the authorities must share some responsibility. An illegal entity operating for such a period of time, without its knowledge and detection was a disaster waiting to happen. Regrettably baby Kyrie was the casualty.
Repeatedly parents have been urged to ensure the facility they choose to offer daycare services are regulated and operating within the law. Too often this is ignored or not properly followed through, with serious consequences.
My condolences to the grieving mother and family members.

Sincerely,
Shamshun Mohamed
