Attached for your information a most important memo relating to the commencement of the National Vetting Bureau (Children and Vulnerable Persons) Acts 2012 to 2016. The Acts will now commence on 29 April 2016 thus introducing in the 26 Counties the mandatory vetting of all persons who work with children or underage teams, i.e. teams and individuals under 18 yrs. of age, and to those who work with vulnerable adults as well.
Once the Acts commences the GAA will move from a paper vetting system to an on line or E-Vetting procedure for our members. The attached memo provides additional information in
respect of the Acts and on E-Vetting and I would be grateful if you could circulate its contents to all Clubs in your County. Additional information will follow as the National Vetting Bureau provides us with updates on the commencement of the Acts.
