Dear Colleague,

Re: Vetting and Barring – Review/ Remodelling

You may all be aware that yesterday the government announced that further development of the Vetting and Barring scheme was to be reviewed.

We have few details of what the review will cover but it is understood to be an attempt to enable a more ‘commonsense’ approach to be taken to the issue of registration and the provision of criminal records information for those who are engaged in work with vulnerable groups (children and adults).
