CRB Checks - Reduction In Cost
20th July 2009
The cost of a standard disclosure will go down from £31 to £26, although the cost of enhanced checks will remain at £36. The fee reduction is due to an expected increase in the volume of disclosure applications being processed because of the new vetting and barring scheme, which comes into effect in October.
Those working with children will still have to pay £64 to register for the vetting and barring scheme. This includes a £28 fee to register with the Independent Safeguarding Authority and £36 for a CRB check.
The Home Office said the reduction in cost will mean total savings to customers of £1 million. The new fees will apply from 1 October 2009 throughout the remainder of 2009/10.
