Scope

The ISA service will extend to England, Wales and Northern Ireland, although arrangements for application and appeals may differ slightly in Northern Ireland. Equivalent legislation has been made in Northern Ireland, under the Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups (Northern Ireland) Order 2007, but implementation dates may vary. A separate, but aligned, scheme will be set up in Scotland under the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act 2007. Anyone included on a Barred List in Scotland will also be barred from working with children and vulnerable adults across the UK.

If appropriate you should seek guidance from your normal legal advisors, trade association or chamber of commerce etc.
