(30 Mar 2015, 8:19 am)Andreos1 When the new system was launched a few years back (CRB, but with a new name), there was a slight change, whereby an employer can check for updates.
I had no idea that small change had been made and I am subject to CRB's on a regular basis.
The fact this usually entails a new application, makes me wonder how many other organisations are aware of it.

I can remember this coming up in our board meetings as early as 2005, when it came in, I dont know, but if I remember correctly, changes to CRB were put forward in thr aftermath of Ian Huntley murdering them little girls in Soham, I think the overhaul of CRB give Police power to disclose anything that was relevant on a disclosure, so you may have had serious allegations against you that were never proven but were left on record, again going back to Huntley, he had previous allegations of rape made against him, and because it was only an allegation it was not disclosed on a CRB and as far as I am aware, things like this can be disclosed under the new service...
It has been a while since I have been subject to CRB checks so I am not 100% sure about it
