I assume you took up the option for £13/year "updates"? ive not had any answer from my LA on deducting the cost of a DBS after the initial one using updates |

Ive been asking now since JUNE 18/09 Quote: Thank you for taking the time to contact Lichfield District Council. We are currently assessing our Taxi processes and have taken your point into account. If this system reduces administration and can save the taxi money it will be considered. Regards How could it NOT save money? anyway, as no DBS check would be needed ever again, they have to remove the fee FOR a DBS from from the charges, they cant charge for one when not doing one or am i missing something? |

Applicants How to register You can register online as soon as you have your application form reference number. You can ask for the number when you apply for your DBS check. Or you can wait and register with your certificate number when you receive your DBS certificate. If so, you must do so within 19 days of the certificate being issued. You can view your details online once you’ve registered. To check the progress of your DBS certificate use the DBS tracking service. Registration lasts for 1 year and costs £13 per year (payable by debit or credit card only). There’s no charge if you’re a volunteer. You’ll get an ID number with your registration that you need to log on to the service. What you get When you join, you’ll get an online account that lets you: take your certificate from one job to the next give employers permission to check your certificate online, and see who has checked it add or remove a certificate Read the detailed guidance for applicants. Employers and other organisations Employers and other organisations can check someone’s DBS certificate status online and get a result straight away. There’s no registration process or fee for employers to check a certificate online, but employers must: be legally entitled to carry out a check have the worker’s permission Read the detailed guidance for employers. |

The price of the software is to expensive for some Councils. |
