Notice Description

The Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) is undergoing a significant change. The responsibility for delivering Basic Disclosure checks for England, Wales and Northern Ireland is being transferred to DBS in September 2017. Therefore DBS will require the registration of Responsible Organisations (RO) that will support the delivery of the Basics service. As part of the eligibility within the registration process, a business credit risk assessment report will need to be carried out for each RO to enable the Authority to approve a payment on account and complete the registration process. The successful supplier will be required to provide these reports to DBS.
