CRB check

[snugglecuddle]

My children are on a Child Protection Plan not i have to say because of myself but due to my ex partner seriously assaulting my 8yr old daughter some of u may remember my previous post anyway can anyone help me with CRB check problem please i am aware of crb's as i used to drive cab few years back so had 1 done myself. social services have told me that anyone coming to my house has to have crb done which is ok except i have started having contact with a old friend who sorry to say does have a partner whom lives with but anyway he only comes round when my children are in bed sleeping so no contact at all with my children and yet they still insist he has 1 why? he will pass 1 as he currently has one done anyway cause he is a cab driver so passed for that its just if certain jelous people in my life know that he has been checked for my house they know he comes round regular and they could pass that to his partner which wouldnt be good he is my rock at the moment and really dont want to have to stop seeing him so does anyone know does he really have to have another crb check done or r social services over reacting cause he has no contact with my children at all XX

I'm not familiar with this sort of situation at all, but I can't see social services taking your statement that "he only comes round when the kids are in bed" very well. If you want to meet him, can't you meet him somewhere else, in daylight?

I would think a CRB would be confidential. If he will pass it there shouldn't really be a problem.

If social services says it has to be done then it has to be done. Your children are on a protection plan and one of the criterior appears to be the CRB checks and since he already has had one done for his cab then he should be able to produce a copy of this. I have my own copy of my CRB at home, you could check if that would be appropriate.

Child Protection Plans are not given out willy nilly and so no, I would be inclined to say Social Services are not overreacting and if you violate the Child Protection Plan I suspect there would be some quite serious consequences as you would be deemed as not co-operating with the plan which has been put in place to safeguard your children.

I understand wot you saying but during the day he is at home sleeping or doing normal home stuff as i said unfortunately he has a partner and he drives his cab in the evenings sometime till early hours of the morning

there is nothing anyone on here can do to change things. either comply with the plan, or suffer the consequences

What you just said isn't relevant. The plan is in place, the restrictions have been set and you have to adhere to them. If this chap is keen to ensure your welfare then he will have no problem with this.

Basically, you can question it as much as you like and provide all the mitigating circumstances you want but the plan is in place, the CRB check is part of it and you've already had the answer from Social Services that you do have to do this. You might not like it but it is what it is I'm afraid.

That will make no difference to social services, snuggle - they are interested in protecting your children, not when you can have your friend round. Hard, but true, sorry.

Fair enough i understand wot you say and i have no intention of going against the plan at all because i know it was put there for a very good reason to protect them from my ex and i certainly wont put my children through anymore heartache than they have already gone through thanx for advice much apreciated xx
