The CRB - an executive agency of the Home Office - is set up to help organisations make safer recruitment decisions. By providing wider access to criminal record information, the CRB helps employers in the public, private and voluntary sectors identify candidates who may be unsuitable for certain work, especially that involving contact with children or other vulnerable members of society.

 

The CRB helps protect the public through its Disclosure service. For further information on this service why not visit our Disclosure Website or telephone the CRB Information Line on 0870 90 90 811.

 

Richmondshire District Council currently runs CRB checks on all appropriately identified posts.
