Fundamental to protecting young people in sport is the need to carry out appropriate risk assessments when recruiting personnel, whether staff or volunteers. The law enables enhanced Barred List checks on all those in regulated activity and here you will find guidance as to who can have a check and how to do that.
It is England Netball policy that all those in regulated activity must have a DBS check done with its umbrella company, Online Disclosures, every 3 years.
The information contained within your DBS certificate is confidential and you must keep it secure and protect it from loss or unauthorised access. Your certificate must only be used in accordance with the Disclosure and Barring Service’s Code of Practice and any other guidance issued by the DBS. Particular attention must be given to the guidance in the fair use of the information in respect of those whose Certificate reveals a disclosure or similar information.
