Anyone involved in regulated activity with children and vulnerable adults must have an Enhanced Disclosure beforehand.
Regulated activity is contact with a child/children/vulnerable adult that occurs frequently. This is defined as at least once a week, or more than 4 days in any 30 day period.
If you wish to apply for DBS checks as part of your recruitment process or ongoing Safeguarding Procedures you must be entitled to ask exempted questions under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act (ROA) 1974 Exceptions Order 1975. (An exempted question is a valid request for a person to reveal their full criminal history (including spent convictions) and is made possible by virtue of the Exceptions Order to the ROA 1974).
