Alison Against the flow of responses so far, we have been advised by an institutional working group that we ought to CRB check members of our harassment network. It's possible that specific local issues and cases live at the time the group was operating may have influenced their decision.

Good afternoon, We are in the process of advertising and recruiting for some more initial/harassment advisers, and are considering making it a requirement that they are subject to a CRB check. I would be most interested to hear what other institutions do.
