Anyone who wants to get a brief idea about the variations to the Barring and Disclosure agreements are welcome to attend a free session conducted by VCVS (Vale-Centre for Voluntary Services). This is an independent charity organisation.
The implementation of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 resulted in the changes to the agreement. The implementation also resulted in merging two functions such as Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA) and Criminal Records Bureau (CRB).
