Sorry if I'm reigniting an old topic, but I was wondering if anyone else was

At our Group Exec last night one of the members produced a quote from a
Charity Commission document which stated all Trustees should be CRB checked.
After discussion, our SiC agreed to check with the Info Centre, but as far
as we all knew it was SA policy that only the Officers (Chair, Secretary and
Treasurer) needed to be checked. (Ignoring the fact that all the leaders
will have been checked anyway.)
A phone call to the Info Centre this afternoon has revealed that from
September, all members of the Group Exec will need to be CRBed (ie now
includes parent reps, fundraisers & other nominated persons).
Was anyone else aware of this - have a missed something somewhere along the
line?

Mmmm....not something I recall seeing here before, and it sounds like
some new guidelines. Should make for some interesting discussions.
I had always assumed that the CRB was for any/extended unsupervised
access any adult may have with the children in our charge. But this
seems to suggest that any adult associated with Scouting should be checked.
"trustees" (as in the defintion used by charity law) have to be
enhanced CRB checked if anyone working for the organisation has to
be anhanced CRB checked, something to do with countersigning and
access to the information
.
