When a person applies for a so-called excepted position, then he or she may be required to provide details of his criminal record by way of a standard or enhanced criminal records check from the Disclosure and Barring Service (formerly the Criminal Records Bureau).
The disclosure of non-conviction information and old and minor convictions
There has been some debate over two particular issues relating to criminal records checks: the disclosure of non-conviction information and the disclosure of old and minor convictions.
There have been calls for wider reform of criminal records disclosure, including from the Law Commission, the Justice Committee, Charlie Taylor in his review of youth justice and David Lammy in his review into the treatment of and outcomes for BAME individuals in the criminal justice system.
