These are primarily for posts that involve working with children or vulnerable adults. Standard Disclosures may also be issued for people entering certain professions, such as members of the legal and accountancy professions.
The Standard Disclosure contains all details of all convictions held on the PNC including current and "spent" convictions as well as details of any cautions, reprimands or final warnings.
If a position involves working with children, the Disclosure will indicate whether information is held on government department lists, held by the DH and DfES, of those who are banned from working with children. Disclosure also includes information held by the DH of those considered unsuitable to work with vulnerable adults.
