Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
The Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Act 2006 (“the 2006 Act”) provides the legislative framework for a new vetting and barring scheme for people who work with children and vulnerable adults. Section 13 of the 2006 Act requires that a check be made in relation to any person appointed to the governing body of an educational establishment. The Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Act 2006 (Prescribed Period and Appropriate Officer) (Wales) Regulations 2010 (“the 2010 regulations”) prescribe, for the purposes of section 13, the period within which that check must be carried out and the appropriate officer responsible for carrying it out.
The Secretary of State is conducting a review of the vetting and barring scheme. As a consequence of that review section 13 of the 2006 Act will not be fully commenced on 26 July 2010. Consequently, these Regulations revoke the 2010 regulations before they come into force on 26 July 2010.
