SurreySaver sorry to be a pain but do you know how i would start to get this information please.
Thanks

you can pay £10 to your local Police force, for a file (not sure of the exact term) this lists any information they have on you
so for £10 you could start the ball rolling, by finding out if this will actually show on any sort of CRB checks, if it shows up there are ways you can get it removed
The Data Protection Act 1998 (the Act) gives
you the right to have a copy of the personal
information the police hold about you. A
request for your personal information is called
a subject access request.
This guidance is for people who wish to make
a subject access request. It does not cover
criminal records checks for employment
purposes. If a criminal records check is
required for your work, then your employer
should explain how to apply for this.
1 How can I make a subject access
request?
You should make your request in writing. If
you wish, you can apply using standard
application forms, available from the police.0 -
During the era of weeding on the PNC (Police National Computer) some files are reported to have been deleted which should not have been. The Police were under a duty to delete some reprimands and cautions (this has now ceased) but they may have deleted some files which were not reprimands or cautions but were in fact convictions. There has been no admittance of this by the government so it is just speculation at this point. However, regardless of that you were convicted of a crime of dishonesty and it appears that nature has not altered. For some jobs it is a criminal offence not to declare previous convictions so I would be very careful, you should be honest. I suspect the conviction will still be recorded on 1) the courts data system (microfilm) and/or 2) the local police stations microfilm, just deleted from the PNC.0
