Hey, have we asked you to fill in a Police vetting form? Here is where you can find some extra information.
Done this before?
The Children's Act 2014 requires periodic safety checks (which include a Police vet) to be renewed every 3 years.
Useful notes
- The minimum age for police vetting is 14, with the consent of a parent or guardian required for 14- to 16-year-olds.
- Volunteers can skip the Children’s Act questions (1.7 & 1.8)
- We need to sight two forms of ID, one primary and one secondary, and one of those must be a photo ID

This is some handy information for those accepting Police vetting forms - currently, any Board members and Anna Harrison.
The primary person right now for accepting and processing Police Vetting forms is Darren Harrison.
Just in case I'm not around, if someone wants to hand a vetting form to any of you, then please accept it.
You need to confirm that the name on the form matches the name on both the primary and secondary ID's. One must be a photo ID. Take a copy of the two IDs, date and sign the copies and then pass them to me with the form.
