Talk:Disclosure and Barring Service

Huntley criticisms
As far as I can tell the criticisms of criminal record checking in 2003 were not directed towards the Criminal Records Bureau. Ian Huntley's employment as a school caretaker was in 2001, before the CRB was launched. January ( talk ) 16:55, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

Unclear
I can make some guesses, but these guesses can easily be off. The article ought to be more clear. --Lambiam 16:50, 17 March 2020 (UTC)
 * What constitutes a "regulated activity"? I assume the sales of alcoholic beverages is regulated by law and requires a licence; is this a regulated activity?
 * What are "exempted questions"? Exempted from what? Paying taxes? Military service?
 * Who or what determines whether an organisation is entitled to ask such questions?
 * What is an Umbrella Body and what does it do, other than (hopefully) accepting registrations and countersigning applications?


 * I don't think it's the job of Wikipedia to define the rules relating to DBS checks. Information on this topic should only be taken from the DBS itself. 51.194.85.80 (talk) 17:56, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
