Explanatory note

This Order extends paragraph 19 of Schedule 3 to the Safeguarding and Vulnerable Groups Act 2006 (c. 47) (“the 2006 Act”) and section 70(1) and paragraph 129 of Schedule 3 and Part 5 of Schedule 10 to the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 (c. 9) (“the 2012 Act”), to the extent that it amends paragraph 19 of Schedule 3 to the 2006 Act, to the Isle of Man, with appropriate modifications.

Article 2 has the effect of extending paragraph 19 of Schedule 3 to the 2006 Act so that there is a requirement on the Isle of Man Constabulary to share relevant information, upon request, with the Disclosure and Barring Service, to support its barring decisions, which may result in an individual being barred from working with vulnerable adults or children.

Article 3(2) amends article 4(4) of the Police Act 1997 (Criminal Records) (Isle of Man) (Amendment) Order 2012 (S.I. 2012/2598) (“the 2012 Order”). It clarifies that the 2012 Order extends Part 5 of Schedule 10 to the 2012 Act to the Isle of Man only to the extent that Part 5 of that Schedule repeals sections 113BA(2)(b) to (d) and 113BB(2)(b) to (d) of the Police Act 1997 (c. 50). In consequence, article 3(3) omits Schedule 4 from the 2012 Order.

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