Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 13 March 2013
165. Deputy Jerry Buttimer asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the type of information disclosed on an application for Garda vetting and specifically if it is only convictions which are disclosed; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13345/13]
Amharc ar fhreagraGarda Vetting Disclosures are made to registered organisations following the signed authorisation of a vetting subject permitting the Garda Central Vetting Unit (GCVU) to disclose to the registered organisation a statement that there are no convictions recorded against them in the State or elsewhere, or a statement of all convictions and /or prosecutions successful or not, pending or completed, in the State or elsewhere as the case may be. It is, of course, a matter for the registered organisation to make decisions on the suitability of persons.
