answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/02/2016 answer text <p>Significant under-reporting of online grooming is likely and it is therefore difficult fully to quantify numbers. The National Strategic Assessment of Serious and Organised Crime, issued by the National Crime Agency, recognises child sexual exploitation and abuse as one of the highest serious and organised crime risks and the Home Office has published a review of the evidence on cybercrime, including online grooming (Cyber Crime: A Review of the Evidence Research Report 75. Chapter 3: Cyber-enabled crimes - sexual offending against children, McGuire and Dowling 2013).</p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 26/02/2016 14:06:57 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/02/2016 answer text <p>The oldest uncompleted application for an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) certificate was received on 30 May 2014.</p><p>It would not be appropriate to comment further on this specific case. But there are a number of factors which can affect the timely completion of checks. These include the length of time it can take for an employer to deal with the initial application, the accurate completion of the application form, the clarity of the information provided, the existence of conviction or non-conviction information and the operational effectiveness of the disclosure units of the police forces involved in the enhanced process. In some cases, forces will ask DBS to clarify some details provided by the applicant which requires further investigation and this can cause further delays.</p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 24/02/2016 16:27:36 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley
