Secton 47 – Supervisory authorities: power to apply for certain barring information

Introduction

This section allows the supervisory authorities referred to in section 45 to obtain information from the Disclosure and Barring Service. But, as a result of amendments made by Protection of Freedoms Act 2012, the only information that can be obtained under this section is whether a person is included on a barred list.

In the text: Baim argues that "understanding adult attachment patterns can also help practitioners to more readily identify the behaviour patterns that the client uses to maintain safety and comfort and which also, in some cases, serve to keep the client stuck in behaviour that no longer serves them as adults". (Baim, 2015)
