POLICE, ENGLAND AND WALES

This Order amends the definition of “relevant matter”, as it has effect in England and Wales, in section 113A of the Police Act 1997 (c. 50). A relevant matter is a matter which, if it is recorded in central records, must be disclosed by the Disclosure and Barring Service in response to an application for a criminal record certificate or an enhanced criminal record certificate. The amendments made by this Order ensure that a conviction or caution that is not spent within the meaning of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (c. 53) will always be disclosed on such certificates.
