The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will publish information held by the Disclosure and Barring Service on DBS checks issued in the most recent year by (a) sector, (b) occupation and (c) Standard Industrial Classification.
Answered by Jess Phillips
The Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) is operationally independent and therefore responsible for the information it publishes.
The organisation currently publishes performance against its targets at DBS dataset 1: DBS checks, the DBS Update Service, and disputes - GOV.UK.
It does not publish information about the sector, occupation, or Standard Industrial Classification in relation to its checks.
