Debate

Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Act 2006 (Amendment) (Provision of Information) Order 2025

Contribution

Most of those who are barred by the DBS will have been barred because of a conviction for a serious offence or because police information disclosed on an enhanced DBS check led to the DBS considering them for barring. That is information which is currently in the police computer. When these forces search for information on their systems, they will find the criminality and police information to which they already had access, as well as the barred list status of the individual.
