Google is your friend!

I like the way they consistently refer to the "CRB Bureau". So that would be the "Criminal Records Bureau Bureau", then?

Well it didn't show up on my last security check which asked for convictions.

A caution is not a criminal record.

Edit: Found this;

What types of Disclosures exist?

There are three types of Disclosure:

Basic Disclosures: All employers and volunteering organisations are entitled to ask prospective employees/volunteers to obtain a Basic Disclosure. This Disclosure is available to all members of the public. Basic Disclosure will show all convictions held on the Police National Computer (PNC) which are not 'spent' as defined under the terms of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act (ROA) 1974.

Standard Disclosure: These are primarily for positions that involve working with children or regular contact with vulnerable adults, and excepted professions, offices and employments referred to in the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975. Standard Disclosures contain details of all convictions on record (including 'spent') plus details of any cautions, reprimands or final warnings. For positions involving 'working with children' Standard Disclosures also give information contained on a government department lists (currently held by the DfES and DH) of people considered unsuitable to work with children.

Enhanced Disclosures: These are for posts involving greater contact with children or vulnerable adults such as a social worker or doctor. Such work might involve regularly caring for, training, supervising or being in sole charge of such people. They will also be issued for other positions, such as those seeking judicial appointments and certain statutory licensing purposes .In addition to the checks carried out for a Standard Disclosure, all Enhanced Disclosures involve an extra level of checking with local police force records. This information can be contained on the both copies of the Disclosure. However, it is up to the Chief Constable of the police force to decide what, if any, information is disclosed. The CRB gives as an example; information contained on details of a child protection case conference. Chief Constables can decide that some information is relevant to the position but do not wish the prospective employee to see this information. The CRB also gives as an example; details of suspected criminal activity where an arrest has not taken place but is anticipated. In such instances, it will be indicated on the top of the Disclosure that further information is being sent by the police, which will be sent separately to the employer / volunteering organisation.

I believe a caution shows up on a standard disclosure as it's an admission of guilt. I'd have to look it up to be sure though, and I CBA.

Do police cautions show up on CRB checks?

Do police cautions show up on CRB checks?

Only on enhanced CRB checks which are required for working with children and vunerable adults, in which case all arrests etc are shown, to do with Huntley.

Normal CRB is for convictions.

This lot do them, supposedly only for Visas but I reckon you could use it for something else if required.

An absence of something is not nothing, necessarily, n'est ce pas?

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
