Protection of Vulnerable Groups and Disclosure of Criminal Information: consultation summary report

Involvement in the development of our proposals

Our consultation paper is only the start of the process of involving those with an interest in our proposals and their continued development. We want to make sure that there will be opportunities to engage further as we prepare the draft legislation. The Scottish Parliament’s consideration of the Disclosure Bill (which was announced in the Programme for Government, published 4 September 2018) will be accompanied by thorough scrutiny, including drawing on the expertise of those already involved in the system.
