Help urban! Do I declare an old caution?

I had one at 22 it have never shown up on an enhanced CRB either.

Maybe I'm just special :D

e2a: also... I dunno. Could be something to do with the date they were received? As in - receiving cautions before / after a database was set up? Or summat? :hmm:

I think both of yours were given some years before mine - in 2001?
 
Someone should take this to the European Court, surely.

I was told when I was cautioned about twelve years ago that the caution would be spent in five years. How can one be forced to declare a "spent" caution? :confused:
 
I was cautioned for cannabis possesion when I was 17 and it didn't come up on my enhanced crb check.
 
if the role is exempt from the rehabilitation of offenders act that means everything goes down, even cautions and SP30s , because if you don't they can and will bin you for making a false declaration ...

in many organisations the appointing manager won't see that section of the form anyway, only HR ( like the health declaration forms - the appointing manager doesn't see it only someone in HR when they pass it to the occ health Doc / Nurse )

http://www.lawontheweb.co.uk/rehabact.htm is a summary of the law

given the role is in a pharmacy setting it may well be that it is exempt given that they are drugs with diversion potential on 'open' shelves in the 'back' of most pharmacies - only the Controlled Drugs are locked away the outermost 'drug cupboard' is the room whenre the pharmacy keeps it's drugs rather than the situation in a hospital ward or GP surgery where the drug cupboards are discrete cupboards
