MM v Disclosure and Barring Service: (UC) [2023] UKUT 275 (AAC) (13 November 2023)<
Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Discusses:
(1) what significance the Disclosure and Barring Service is obliged to place on the passage of time between the conduct which the DBS relies upon and the barring decision, where the referred person has not repeated such conduct in the intervening period; and
(2) whether, and if so in what circumstances, the DBS is entitled to place an individual's name on the children's barred list based on concerns arising from that individual's sexual offending against adults even where the evidence doesn't establish any sexual interest in children.
