http://www...O/T but have you heard of this lot DP?<br /><br />http://www.isa-gov.org.uk/Default.aspx?page=290<br /><br />It's a body that's been set up to protect "children and vulnerable adults" from...well anyone 'unsuitable', really.<br /><br />From November 2010 it will be an offence for an employer to recuit without checking that the potential employee is registered with the ISA and by 2015 ONLY people who are ISA registered will be able to work in jobs LIKELY to involve contact with children or vulnerable adults. It is the individual's responsibility (natch) to pay the fee of £64.00.<br /><br />Perhaps I've missed it but nowhere can I find a definition of a 'vulnerable' adult or what consitutes contact with children or what 'likely contact' amounts to.<br /><br />I work in a field in which neither truly vulnerable adults nor children are involved, yet I've come across this through my professional body. I do, however, deal with elderly people and I'm wondering whether the State, in its infantilisation of the population, now regards people as vulnerable simply on the grounds of their age!<br /><br />They'll have us all on a database by hook or by crook (and I feel bloody aggrieved at having to pay £64 to 'prove innocence').<br /><br />JayAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-84397218870104224852009-08-14T15:21:08.536+01:002009-08-14T15:21:08.536+01:00IfYou'reSoBotheredBuyAFan.eco
