Abstract/Citation
The Act makes four principal changes to the law with the object of both creating the framework of a coherent cross-sector system for identifying people unsuitable to work with children and achieving a "one stop shop" to compel or allow employers to access a single point for checking the names of people they propose to employ in a post involving the care of children.
