Question to the Home Office:

What plans he has to make changes to the Disclosure and Barring Service after the Supreme Court judgment of 30 January 2019.

The judgment found two aspects of the disclosure regime to be incompatible with the Article 8 right to private life.The Government will carefully consider the details of this complex judgment.

Any legislative changes will not only conform to the judgment, but will continue to ensure that the disclosure regime supports effective protection for children and vulnerable adults.
