The Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) publication scheme details which information held by DBS is available to the public. Most of the information that is available through the scheme can be found on the DBS website. Alternatively, it may be provided upon request.

The publication scheme was established in accordance with Section 19 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and in accordance with guidance issued by the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).

DBS revised their publication scheme in March 2021 to ensure it is in line with DBS published performance standards. Police Performance is a subset of enhanced DBS check data, it does not have a separate DBS public service standard, and has been removed from the publication scheme. There will therefore be no further update of this dataset.
