- portability of criminal record checks between jobs
- merging the Criminal Record Bureau (CRB) and Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA)
- an end to the requirement for those working or volunteering with vulnerable groups to register with the Vetting and Barring System and then be continuously monitored by the ISA
- stopping employers knowingly requesting CRB checks on individuals who are not entitled to them

The
Bill
is
expected
to
become
law
by
early
2012
with
the
proposed
changes
introduced
gradually. |

Applied

Clarification
is
required
over
the
meaning
of
people
who
work
closely
and
regularly
with
children
and
vulnerable
adults
and
who
it
would
impact
on.
For
example
would
those
undertaking
'helper'
roles
such
as
putting
cones
out
or
driving
children
to
matches
need
to
undergo
a
criminal
records
check
under
the
proposal?
As a
minimum
standard
of
deployment,
sports
coach
UK
would
still
recommend
that
lead
coaches
and
assistant
coaches
have
an
enhanced
criminal
records
check. |
|
Portability
of
Criminal
Record
Checks |
|
|
This
could
mean
coaches
who
work
for
different
employers
will
not
have
to
undergo
a
criminal
record
check
for
each
employer,
thereby
cutting
time
and
bureaucracy. |
