ISPCC urges vetting of volunteers
Outlining its three main aims for 2003 yesterday, the child protection agency said it would also target child pornography and again called on the Church to submit details of all staff to the Central Vetting Unit.
“At the moment, the vetting system is not satisfactory. The gardaí carry out checks on people employed by the health boards but they haven’t the capacity to check the backgrounds of people working with children in the voluntary sector,” said director of services Grace Kelly.
