    CRB checks to be reduced

    BBC News - Parents warned over plans to cut criminal record (CRB) checks

    And about time too. Hopefully we will now see red-tape reduction in other areas.

    And alot more adults will get involved in child activities.

    The Soham murders could have been stopped by other means. And the vast majority of child abusers are known to their victim.

    And I've only just had another CRB done on me, is it worth anything as a contractor?

          Get on a project that will wait for you to get cleared. I've done it three times - must be time to get another one, as I usually move onto the next one about a month after it expires!

              They only prove you haven't been caught yet anyway.

                Correct, they're not the greatest of use and provided very little in the way of assurance
