Vetting

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether police information notices are included in disclosure and barring checks; and if she will make a statement.

[156238]

Answer

Police information notices (PINs), issued where there have been allegations of harassment, are not automatically disclosed as part of an enhanced disclosure and barring service (DBS) certificate. However, chief officers are required to disclose additional information which they reasonably believe to be relevant, and PINs can be included in this additional information.
