Yet another Stealth Tax, brought to you by those wacky people at NL.

Not required if you're not going to be left alone with kids. This is a sort of "are you allowed near kids with supervision" register.

Complete load of old knee-jerk bollocks IMO.

In the UK under labour, if you are male then you are , by definition, a paedophile - until proven otherwise. And even then there is a doubt (especially as far as harman is concerned).

They must have based the cost of this on the new passport fee of 77 quid.

A lady I listened to on the radio yesterday morning had her name on a register only because, years before, one passing copper was of the opinion she might be a risk to children after she left her kids playing in a playground while she popped into a shop for two minutes.

She appealed right up to judicial review, and was finally told she'd have to prove her innocence if she wanted her name removed.
