Request & Consent Forms

Police Vetting can only be carried out with the signed consent of the person being vetted. Consent is provided by completing the Request and Consent form.

Agencies are expected to make sure the person being vetted is aware of the vetting process and can direct them to the Police website or the ‘Guide to PVS Request and Consent Form’ (PDF 537KB) for more information.
