Security clearance

[lukemg]

Going through this, do I need to mention D and D from student days (20 years ago) ? This doesn't = criminal record due to minor offence.
Had a criminal convictions check done recently and it came up clear.
Form wants to know about driving offences except parking.
Any advice ?

put down everything, leave out nothing

so you spent a night in a cell for being 'too drunk to make it home' when you were a student. I dare say you were kicked out of the cell at 4 or 5am and told to go home with a caution. This is not earth shattering, but i would include it on a disclosure document. If they find something you have not told them, you will regret it!!!

put it down , they dont care about what you did as a student so long ago, but they love honesty trust me the vetting is slick as hell they will know about it!

Be honest i knew someone who put down his minor tulip from years ago and he was cleared np.

Disclose everything is the basic rule. D&D ages ago won't be an issue.

If you don't and they dig it up the clearance could easily be refused.

Use the notes section on the form to mention it if you don't have the exact details.

Put it down. I had a D&D caution when I was a student and I got clearance. Par for the course when I was in Manchester in the early 90s!

Don't bother. I had a D & D caution and night in cells years back and didn't declare it for clearance. Never crossed my mind to put it down at the time. Got cleared no problem.

They do not look at cautions, they only reside on the local police forces system. They only look at the PNC and the SCRO CHS

D&D can get in there if you were really bad and got charged but if you got kicked out the cells after being found stagering up the middle of the road dribbling you would be more likely to get a caution for DAI (drunk and incapable) which is regarded as the most minor of minor things, less than dropping litter.

Better for you to tell them than for them to tell you.

Whatever you do, don't tell them your online alter ego!!!!
