Vetting and barring - your views
On 15 June 2010, the Government
called a halt to the proposed Vetting and Barring scheme pending a
full review.
The intention is to make it less
prescriptive and to adopt a more "common sense" approach.
Registered childminders who have
already had Criminal Records Bureau disclosures would not have had
to register under the new scheme until April 2011, but any
assistants a registered childminder wanted to employ, or a newly
registering childminder, were due to have registered under the
scheme from 26 July 2010.
We're keen to hear the views of
childminders about the changes announced by Government. Please
complete the short form below.
