What are Enhanced Disclosures?
These show English Lacrosse people’s conviction history (things they have been found guilty of) other information that might be considered relevant (for example if a person has had an investigation of abuse) and whether or not they are banned by the courts from working with children. When a Disclosure is issued English Lacrosse CRB Unit gets one copy and the applicant gets another. These are identical. If, however, the unit gets what is called additional information on a separate letter this will not show on the applicant’s copy. This means that a Disclosure certificate appears clear of relevant offending but there may be a very real concern. Additional information tells English Lacrosse CRB Unit about any on-going investigations, for example about someone who is having their computer monitored for child pornography or who is under surveillance for drug dealing. This information can only be shared with the Lead Welfare Officer for English Lacrosse’s Child Protection and legal advisors
