Initial GTC response to Education Secretary's statement on list 99
19 January 2006
Please find below an initial response from the GTC on Ruth Kelly's statement on list 99 in the House of Commons today.
This is a sensible package of interim measures. It is reassuring to learn that cases arising both before and after the creation of the Sex Offenders Register have been reviewed. The requirement for mandatory CRB checks for all school staff is an important protection for children. The GTC welcomes the creation of an independent panel to advise Ministers and the proposal for a new statutory body in due course.
