<p>I refer the Rt Hon. Member to the answer I gave on 14 December 2015, UIN 18936.
The DBS regularly publishes performance statistics of police disclosure units against
the service level agreements. This can be accessed here:</p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/dbs-dataset-5-police-disclosure-unit-performance"
target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/dbs-dataset-5-police-disclosure-unit-performance</a></p><p>In
the circumstance that an applicant is unable to begin work due to the length of time
taken by a police disclosure unit to complete their checks, it would be a matter for
the police force in question to consider the provision of a financial redress.</p>
