CRB checks were replaced by DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) checks in 2012. There are two types of DBS check:

  • A standard DBS check which will reveal spent and unspent criminal information that is not eligible for filtering.
  • An enhanced check which will show the same as a standard check, plus any intelligence the police believe may be relevant. Enhanced checks may also include barred list checks if requested. A barred list check will reveal whether the individual has been legally barred from working in certain roles with vulnerable groups.
