United Kingdom
This article applies to—
the chief constable of a police force in Scotland; and
the Scottish Crime and Drug Enforcement Agency.
For the purposes of enabling or assisting the F1Disclosure and Barring Service to determine whether to include an individual in, or remove an individual from—
the children’s barred list or adults’ barred list maintained under section 2 of the 2006 Act; or
the children’s barred list or adults’ barred list maintained under Article 6 of the 2007 Order,
the F2DBS may require a person to whom this article applies to provide it with any information relating to an individual which the person thinks might be relevant in relation to the type of regulated activity (within the meaning of the 2006 Act or the 2007 Order) in relation to which a request under this paragraph is made.
The DBS must pay such fee as Scottish Ministers think appropriate to a person who provides information under paragraph (2).
A person must not provide information to the DBS under paragraph (2) if the person thinks that disclosing it to the individual to whom it relates would be contrary to the interests of the prevention or detection of crime.
