Section 16: Further information for certain purposes: non-PVG scheme members
37.Section 16 provides for further information to be included in a Level 2 disclosure in cases where the disclosure is for a prescribed purpose. The purposes to which this section applies will be set out by regulations subject to the negative procedure and will relate to children and protected adults (but will be roles which fall short of regulated roles for which PVG scheme membership would be mandatory). Where one of the prescribed purposes applies, Ministers must include on the disclosure any further information about the individual, in addition to the information which must always be included in a Level 2 disclosure in terms of section 8.
38.The further information which must be disclosed is: whether the applicant is barred from carrying out a regulated role with either children or adults (as relevant to the purpose of the disclosure) and, if barred, information about why; whether Ministers are considering the applicant for listing under the PVG Act and, if they are, whether any standard conditions have been imposed on the applicant under the new section 13A inserted into the PVG Act by section 76(2) of the Act; and whether any prescribed civil court orders are in force against the applicant.
