Will,

 

This is a very interesting area for me as I have worked both in records management and security vetting.

 

My gut reaction is that they should be vetted, as sensitive information could be used for grooming purpose and it is only going to take one high profile case where a DBA or RM uses information they got as part of their duties to help groom a child and there will be a public demand for vetting.

 

On a related note, should a local authority RM post be a ‘politically restricted’ post? I personally don’t see the need for that but I have seen at least one local authority RM post that was politically restricted.

 

 

 

Best wishes.

 

Craig Alexander Moore

It is either an easy Yes or No I think but my view of this was that as RM’s neither work with Children or Vulnerable Adults it was not necessary….however they do come into contact with Case Files relating to both so I thought I would ask before starting to make further enquiries! Any pointers/recommendations greatly received.

 

Sincerely,

 

Will Bell
