Getting Started

Self-declaration form

Before giving the applicant the AccessNI Disclosure Validation Form, they must have an opportunity to self-declare any relevant information. For standard/enhanced applications they should complete and return to you a Self-declaration Form. (Unless this is a renewal, and your contract contains a clause requiring the applicant to disclose any new warning, reprimand or conviction history.)

If any information is ever declared on this form it should be risk-assessed before processing an AccessNI Check. If you need any help with carrying out this risk assessment, the thirtyone:eight Safeguarding Helpline Team can assist you. For help with risk assessments, email [email protected]
