HC Deb 26 April 2001 vol 367 c402W
Ms Kelly

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department when he will publish the code of practice in connection with the use of information provided to registered persons by the Criminal Records Bureau. [159532]

Mr. Charles Clarke

The code of practice for registered persons and other recipients of disclosure information is being published today under section 122(1) of the Police Act 1997, and will be placed on the Criminal Records Bureau's website as well. The code has also today been laid before Parliament in accordance with section 122(2) of the Act. In addition, we are publishing today an explanatory guide for registered persons and other recipients of disclosure information, and I am arranging for copies to be placed in the Library.
