Unless the nature of the work demands it, you will not be asked to disclose convictions which are 'spent' under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974.

Therefore, applicants who are offered employment may be subject to a criminal record check from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) before the appointment is confirmed.
