Explanatory note

These Regulations amend the prescribed fees in the Police Act 1997 (Criminal Records and Registration) (Jersey) Regulations 2010 (S.I. 2010/1087) (“the 2010 Regulations”).

Regulation 2 amends the fees for criminal conviction certificates (also known as basic certificates), criminal record certificates (also known as standard certificates) and enhanced criminal record certificates. These amendments will align the fee charged for a Disclosure and Barring Service application in Jersey to its equivalent in England and Wales.

Regulation 3 inserts a new regulation 3A in the 2010 Regulations which sets out fees for requesting up-date information under section 116A of the Police Act 1997 (c.50).

The amended fees apply to applications for basic certificates, standard certificates, enhanced criminal record certificates and the up-date service in Jersey.

A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private or voluntary sector or community bodies is foreseen.
