Reforming childhood criminal records disclosure consultation

Overview

In the Youth Justice White Paper ‘Cutting Youth Crime, Changing Young Lives’, the Government committed to a public consultation on targeted areas of reform to childhood criminal records disclosure to ensure the regime is clear and proportionate.

We welcome responses from anyone impacted by having to disclose a youth criminal record, organisations working in the youth justice/criminal records sector, and employers and organisations that use criminal records disclosure to inform decisions, especially in relation to safeguarding.
