What police forces enter on CPIC and reveal to American customs officers and on PRCs to employers has and continues to cause a lot of problems. “Some police routinely disclose non-conviction information (e.g. acquittals and withdrawn charges) and non-criminal information (e.g. mental health incidents). These disclosures can unfairly affect an individual’s employment and volunteer opportunities.” See what the Information and Privacy Commissioner (pages 8-10) has to say. A court challenge is pending and our Premier has promised to address this issue with legislation – the sooner the better.
