was launched 10 years ago it was with good intent. The government | :00:02. | :00:06. | |
wanted to make sure those wanting to work with children are | :00:06. | :00:10. | |
vulnerable adults had been thoroughly checked out. Every time | :00:10. | :00:14. | |
I applied to a job I have to stick to the employer beforehand that I | :00:14. | :00:20. | |
do have a criminal record, I have something on my CRB. It is quite | :00:20. | :00:25. | |
shameful, really, and embarrassing. It has stopped this 22-year-old | :00:25. | :00:29. | |
from pursuing a career in nursing. All very well, you might think, but | :00:29. | :00:34. | |
you may be surprised when you find out what she did. She doesn't want | :00:34. | :00:44. | |
:00:44. | :00:45. | ||
to reveal her identity but she wants to tells her story. Anyone | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
working with children are vulnerable adults have to have a | :00:49. | :00:54. | |
CRB check. This shows convictions or cautioned held on the Police | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
National Computer. For those who regularly care for children such as | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
teachers or nurses, and enhanced check is needed and this can | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
include any details the police considered relevant. There are some | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
people who said that things have gone too far. Last year, we told | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
you about two men whose lives have been ruined because of allegations | :01:14. | :01:20. | |
on their CRB disclosures. Both were accused of serious offences, which | :01:20. | :01:24. | |
they strenuously denied. Nothing was ever present in court yet as a | :01:24. | :01:29. | |
result, both lost their jobs and have struggled to find work since. | :01:29. | :01:34. | |
A year on, and the two men are still fighting to clear their names. | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
They are not the only one to feel their lives and prospect have been | :01:38. | :01:43. | |
turned upside down by the Criminal Records Bureau. -- prospects. | :01:43. | :01:50. | |
I was 17, I used a friend's driving licence and we tried to get into a | :01:50. | :01:57. | |
nightclub. When I approached the nightclub doors, the bouncers pass | :01:57. | :02:03. | |
the id straight to the police. I was cautioned. Sarah, not her real | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
name, was told a caution would be removed from her record when she | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
was 18, but it has come back to haunt her. When I started applying | :02:11. | :02:18. | |
for jobs I was 20. This was for a full-time job. The nature of the | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
job I was going into, a support worker, I needed an enhanced CRB | :02:22. | :02:31. | |
Cech. It came back to me first, before the employer. I then had to | :02:31. | :02:36. | |
immediately tell the employer what was on the record. What does it | :02:36. | :02:42. | |
say? It is a reprimand and the offence is using false instrument | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
for other than prescription for a scheduled drug under the forgery | :02:45. | :02:51. | |
and counterfeiting Act, 1981. fact that the word Krug is used | :02:51. | :02:57. | |
could conjure up all kinds of images. -- drug. When I first read | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
it I was very shocked. You would not think I had used someone's idea | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
to get into a nightclub, but that I had done far worse. Now, it will | :03:05. | :03:12. | |
not be removed from my record. long for? 100 years. That will stay | :03:12. | :03:19. | |
for 100 years? Yes. A caution is a formal warning given to an adult he | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
admits eight -- an event. Reprimands are similar but given to | :03:24. | :03:31. | |
juveniles. All are disclosed until a Britain is 100. I am shocked. | :03:31. | :03:37. | |
When you think of the thousands of people who try and get into clubs | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
by using someone else's documents, it happens all the time. They are | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
breaking the law but she was just 17 and that stigma, because of what | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
she did, will stay with her for the rest of her life. She is not the | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
only one discover an offence committed when she was young is | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
affecting her in adulthood. We were contacted by the mother of a man | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
who as a teenager was caught in possession of cannabis at a music | :04:02. | :04:08. | |
festival. He was wrong but he was only 16 at the time. He was given a | :04:08. | :04:13. | |
police caution and that has remained on his police check. The | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
way it is worded, it sounds like he was a drug addict. These words are | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
taken from an interview with his mother but her identity and boys | :04:21. | :04:28. | |
have been protected by using an actor. With qualifications and | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
excellent references he thought he would jump straight into supply | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
teaching. He found that no one would touch him at all. He sat in | :04:34. | :04:39. | |
his room for a whole year. He was so depressed and he felt, that is | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
it, what am I going to do? Eventually he had no choice but to | :04:43. | :04:49. | |
leave the country and teach overseas. It says something that | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
people who committed relatively minor offences whenever young are | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
so worried that their job prospects that they are too frightened to | :04:55. | :05:01. | |
appear on camera. Is this what the CRB was set up to do, penalise | :05:01. | :05:07. | |
people for mistakes when they were young? The human rights campaign | :05:07. | :05:12. | |
group Liberty thinks something has gone wrong with the CRB. We have | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
been inundated with calls and queries from people who are | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
concerned about a very old offences which may have taken place many | :05:19. | :05:25. | |
years ago, very minor offences. do you go about changing things? | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
Unfortunately, the law is very clear. The Court of Appeal has | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
entitled -- said the police are entitled to disclose minor | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
convictions and they are of the position that the police's policy | :05:38. | :05:46. | |
is that they will continue to hold and is close the information. -- | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
disclose. A few big this is an infringement of human rights? | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
you think. Yes, one of the most important rights is the right to | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
privacy. While it is not the absolute right, there has to be a | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
good reason to interfere with that and it has to be proportionate. We | :06:05. | :06:10. | |
would say that automatic disclosure of very old, minor and a relevant | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
offences would be potentially a violation of you fight to -- right | :06:14. | :06:20. | |
to privacy. Liberty is continuing to challenge this in the law courts. | :06:20. | :06:26. | |
Meanwhile, Sarah remains trapped. What has this prevented you from | :06:26. | :06:33. | |
doing in life? My ideal career choice would be too good university | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
and become a nurse. It has held me back because it will not go in my | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
favour, having something like this on a record against me. | :06:42. | :06:47. | |
anything be done to help people like Sarah, or a young teacher who | :06:47. | :06:54. | |
has had to leave the country to get a job? In 20th October 10, the home | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
secretary commissioned an independent review of the criminal | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
records regime, with the aim of scaling a back to what she called | :06:59. | :07:06. | |
"commonsense levels". Sunita Mason was appointed as an independent | :07:06. | :07:11. | |
adviser to lead a review. I would like to see minor information, that | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
is not relevant for public protection purposes, is not | :07:15. | :07:20. | |
included in a CRB check. I am not talking about sexual offences, | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
because the public have got to have security and confidence in the | :07:24. | :07:30. | |
vetting system. What she wants is a filter system which would weed out | :07:30. | :07:35. | |
minor convictions and cautions. there was a filter system it would | :07:35. | :07:41. | |
mean that the one-off for shoplifting or fighting outside a | :07:41. | :07:46. | |
pub, where might it was just a small issue, would mean that it | :07:46. | :07:54. | |
wasn't disclosed and you sipped her forget. -- on you a certificate. | :07:54. | :07:59. | |
Can you see a time were minor offences will be taken off people's | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
record? A do not be taken come off a record permanently, but I think | :08:04. | :08:13. | |
what should happen is that what should be disclosed will be decided, | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
so that the system becomes Berra. I would like to make sure that young | :08:17. | :08:20. | |
people are not blighted by minor things that happened a long time | :08:20. | :08:26. | |
ago. Many of the recommendations in the review are part of the current | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
Protection of Freedoms Bill. The Fed that is not included. -- the | :08:29. | :08:39. | |
:08:39. | :08:40. | ||
filter. It says that many convictions will not be ignored if | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
they relate to criminal behaviour. We make silly mistakes when we are | :08:45. | :08:54. | |
young and it is a shame it has to keep coming back to remind me. | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
Recover that story because the young people whose lives were | :08:57. | :09:05. | |
affected got in touch with me by e- mail. -- we covered that story. You | :09:05. | :09:10. | |
can as well if you think there is something we need to look into. Or, | :09:10. | :09:18. | |
you can contact me on Twitter. Later, the dog that adopted a | :09:18. | :09:26. | |
soldier and left Afghanistan for England. | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
As our population grows, so does the demand for food. Land is being | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
more intensively farmed and that is being felt by birds are about live | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
on farmland. The RSPB says their numbers have reduced dramatically | :09:39. | :09:46. | |
over the last 40 years but farmers argued any demand to grow the food. | :09:46. | :09:53. | |
-- argued that they need the land. I have been working with the RSPB | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
for seven years. I have been fortunate to be working with lots | :09:56. | :10:02. | |
of farmers to try and help them help their farmland birds. Whilst | :10:02. | :10:06. | |
we have had some success I have seen in the wider countryside some | :10:06. | :10:11. | |
real declines. It has been really obvious that we are losing some | :10:11. | :10:18. | |
species from certain areas. RSPB claim that farmland birds have | :10:18. | :10:24. | |
fallen 50%. The question is whether we can't afford to protect our | :10:24. | :10:31. | |
wildlife if we need to grow more food? What are we hoping to see? | :10:31. | :10:36. | |
habitat here is not so good. There are not so many opportunities for | :10:36. | :10:43. | |
farmland birds. We might get lucky and hear or see a skylark and there | :10:43. | :10:49. | |
might be yellowhammers in these hedges. Let's have a look here and | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
I will show you what part of the problem is for these foreign land | :10:52. | :11:00. | |
birds. What can we see? Not a great deal. This winter cereal does not | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
have any opportunities for farmland birds. There is no food here for | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
them. In the past they would have been stubble which would have | :11:08. | :11:14. | |
provided food over the winter. would you like to see? We should be | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
hearing or seeing the skylark over this field. If there was more in | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
the way of winter food then maybe we might be able to see | :11:21. | :11:29. | |
yellowhammers, buntings as well. According to the RSPB, tree | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
sparrows have experienced the most dramatic decline with 95% | :11:34. | :11:40. | |
disappearing. Be grey partridge population has fallen by 90%. | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
Others to suffer large false intruder lapwing, corn bunting, | :11:44. | :11:54. | |
:11:54. | :11:56. | ||
Leonard and skylark. 20 different birds are under threat. We are | :11:56. | :12:06. | |
:12:06. | :12:13. | ||
going to try our luck elsewhere. This is a field of sugar beet which | :12:13. | :12:20. | |
has been harvested. I would imagine this is better for birds? Be it is | :12:20. | :12:26. | |
better for some birds space-age but they actually need seed fit. -- it | :12:26. | :12:35. | |
is better for some species. What other factors are at play? | :12:35. | :12:43. | |
Winter fruit is important at this time of year, but also, insects. | :12:43. | :12:49. | |
They also need somewhere safe to nest. It is very easy for you to | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
trot out the mantra, it is agricultural intensification that | :12:53. | :13:00. | |
is to blame. That cannot be the only factor here? No, nor would the | :13:00. | :13:05. | |
RSPB wish that either. We do not blame the farmers but the policy. | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
We know there are practical solutions that farmers can adopt to | :13:09. | :13:16. | |
Farming's a business and there's always going to be a trade-off | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
between maximising crops and leaving spaces for wildlife. This | :13:19. | :13:23. | |
is Hall farm in Knettishall in Suffolk. James Bucher hascreated a | :13:23. | :13:29. | |
number of nature friendly areas on his farm. ��NEWLINE This block of | :13:29. | :13:39. | |
:13:39. | :13:42. | ||
land was planted with a wild seed bird mixlast May. The mix comprised | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
of mustard, millet, tritacalie. This is Fercelia here, sort of | :13:45. | :13:50. | |
See with the mustard here most of the seeds gone, but if we just open | :13:50. | :13:57. | |
up one or two, this provides a Birds over the winter. | :13:57. | :14:01. | |
So what difference have you noticed with the number of birds on the | :14:01. | :14:11. | |
:14:11. | :14:11. | ||
farm having done this? Prior to planting these wild bird | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
mixes we'd see a few skylarks and that was about it up here, but now | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
since we've put these in, winter you come up here and there are | :14:18. | :14:21. | |
literally thousands of birds flying about which is terrific to see. | :14:21. | :14:24. | |
��NEWLINE What's this bit of bare ground doing in this wheat field, | :14:24. | :14:33. | |
what's all this about? This is called a Skylark plot. What's it | :14:33. | :14:42. | |
do? It's a place. The skylarks like nesting in the wheat we're standing | :14:42. | :14:45. | |
in these areas create a foraging habitat for them. On this field | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
there are fifty of these. You've got to earn a living, you're not | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
going to do this out of the kindness of your heart, so do you | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
get compensated for this for this land which isn't in production? Do | :14:55. | :14:58. | |
you get compensated for this land and the land you've planted seed? | :14:58. | :15:01. | |
We do receive payments under the stewardship scheme for taking land | :15:01. | :15:06. | |
out of production. How much do you get? A little less than if we grew | :15:06. | :15:11. | |
commercial crops. But be brutally honest, you wouldn't do this if you | :15:11. | :15:17. | |
didn't get paid. Possibly on the better land, but on the less | :15:17. | :15:23. | |
productive land I think we'd carry The stewardship certainly. So it's | :15:23. | :15:28. | |
something you personally feel is important to do? Yeah, I hold it | :15:29. | :15:31. | |
quite dear to my heart. I hate hearing about the decline in | :15:32. | :15:35. | |
species. I'm just glad we're able to on this farm anyway to help | :15:35. | :15:39. | |
numbers. This is Thrift Farm in Royston in Cambridgeshire, ten per | :15:39. | :15:42. | |
cent of the land here is put aside for projects which help wildlife. | :15:42. | :15:45. | |
But Robert Law is annoyed that farmers are sometimes seen as the | :15:45. | :15:51. | |
bad guys and their good work can go un-recognised. | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
Do you think farmers have been unfairly blamed for the decline of | :15:54. | :16:01. | |
farmland birds? Yes I do, the intensification | :16:01. | :16:03. | |
started thirty forty years ago, in the 1960s, 1970s, it's constantly | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
mentioned the whole time. It's changed now, things have changed | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
dramatically over the last few years. A lot of us have joined | :16:09. | :16:12. | |
agri-schemes, we're doing positive things, I've got ten per cent of my | :16:12. | :16:18. | |
land, out of crop production her, put into special habitat. We're | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
doing regular bird surveys here and we're seeing our bird index on this | :16:21. | :16:28. | |
particular farm increasing every year. Robert Law believes that the | :16:28. | :16:36. | |
picture for farmland birds isn't as grim as painted. He believes it's | :16:36. | :16:46. | |
:16:46. | :16:47. | ||
just time that's needed for bird numbers to recover. | :16:47. | :16:49. | |
Is there a danger Robert that there's too much emphasis on | :16:50. | :16:52. | |
protecting wildlife, rather than producing food for a growing | :16:52. | :16:55. | |
population? Look we all accept there's room for both, right, but | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
it's about getting the balance right. I'm all in favour of having | :16:58. | :17:00. | |
conservation, doing environmental things, but doing it on a voluntary | :17:00. | :17:07. | |
basis, targeted on the right areas. Research has shown. Everyone agrees | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
that you don't have to do an awful lot to make a big difference. If | :17:12. | :17:14. | |
you've got Grade One land, intensive vegetable land, roast | :17:14. | :17:17. | |
potatoes, carrots, those sorts of crops, that's what you ought to be | :17:17. | :17:25. | |
doing. If you're on land like I'm farming. It's more marginal, it's | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
less productive, then you can put areas into habitats for farmland | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
birds, but it's got to be done on a voluntary basis and it's got to be | :17:32. | :17:42. | |
:17:42. | :17:43. | ||
targeted in the right areas. RSPB regularly carries out surveys | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
on the number of farmland birds but warm some there's still a real | :17:46. | :17:55. | |
danger that some farmland birds could disappear completely. | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
Ultimately, Simon, why should we be fussed about the long time future | :17:58. | :18:06. | |
of farmland birds? Well, farmland birds are a barometer of our | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
environment, so if they are doing well it is quite likely that a | :18:09. | :18:11. | |
range of different wildlife is doing well. | :18:11. | :18:14. | |
But farmers are being asked to produce security of food supply, | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
and ultimately if we lose a few farmland birds along the way isn't | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
that a price worth paying? Well, no, and of course it matters | :18:20. | :18:23. | |
to keep hold of our farmland birds and other wildlife. Producing food | :18:23. | :18:25. | |
Much intrinsically linked to producing and having wildly, | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
because wildlife actually enable us to produce food. | :18:29. | :18:34. | |
So, you're saying we can't produce more food without birds? Well, | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
without wildlife as a whole, because whether its pollinating | :18:37. | :18:40. | |
insects that pollinate our crops, or pest control for which birds can | :18:40. | :18:43. | |
actually supply and wouldn't it be a sad place in the countryside if | :18:43. | :18:53. | |
:18:53. | :19:00. | ||
we never heard the song of the skylark. Our last door at night is | :19:00. | :19:08. | |
about a special friendship made by a young its shoulder. -- soldier. | :19:08. | :19:13. | |
Conrad was killed in action. His family decided to bring his dog, | :19:13. | :19:23. | |
:19:23. | :19:26. | ||
This is the story of a young man's quest to make a difference. A | :19:26. | :19:31. | |
friendship with a feral dog in a foreign land. And a family's fight | :19:31. | :19:34. | |
to make sense of a terrible loss with the help of a mongrel called | :19:34. | :19:39. | |
Peg. For Sandy Lewis it all began on a | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
winter's day with the ominous sight of a man in a suit waiting on the | :19:42. | :19:52. | |
:19:52. | :19:52. | ||
doorstep of her home in Claverdon. Apparently he had been their most | :19:52. | :20:01. | |
of the day waiting for us to come home. He just came out with it, | :20:01. | :20:08. | |
saying you need to sit down, I have something to tell you. The you | :20:08. | :20:15. | |
knew? Yes. Conrad was just 22 when he was killed while fighting in | :20:15. | :20:23. | |
Afghanistan. He'd always been an adventurous boy and loved the army. | :20:23. | :20:28. | |
He was very active and in the thick of everything. We were nervous when | :20:28. | :20:34. | |
he went and very fearful. Even more so because we knew he would give it | :20:34. | :20:40. | |
everything, which she did. It cost him everything To make life | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
bearable in Afghanistan Conrad befriended a dog called Pegasus, | :20:42. | :20:44. | |
named after the Parachute regiment's flying horse emblem - | :20:44. | :20:54. | |
tattooed in biro on her side. it unusual for guys out there to | :20:54. | :21:01. | |
form relationships with dogs as friends? Not that unusual, I think | :21:01. | :21:06. | |
they find it as comfort, some compassion when you are fighting. | :21:06. | :21:11. | |
There was a bombed, he brought pictures of her home at Christmas. | :21:11. | :21:19. | |
He took us through the pictures of Conrad had talked many times about | :21:19. | :21:22. | |
bringing Peg back home to England and now the family set out to | :21:22. | :21:25. | |
fulfil his wish. They discovered a charity called Nowzad - named after | :21:25. | :21:29. | |
a small town in Afghanistan. And with their help the hunt for Peg | :21:30. | :21:37. | |
began, she'd disappeared after Conrad's death. ��NEWLINE Pen | :21:37. | :21:40. | |

So sometimes it can be a series of journeys. You might have to go to | :21:55. | :22:03. | |
different cities, before arriving. A former marine set up the family - | :22:03. | :22:08. | |

We came across a dog fight. Sadly these two dogs were fighting each | :22:20. | :22:26. | |
other. We thought we would not see the dogs again, but this one | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
followed us back to our compound. He adopted me and became my best | :22:31. | :22:35. | |
buddy for six months. From his cramped cottage, which he shares | :22:35. | :22:38. | |
with three other war zone dogs, Pen masterminds homecomings of dogs and | :22:38. | :22:40. | |
cats. It can be fraught, dangerous and complicated because officially | :22:40. | :22:50. | |

the soldiers are forbidden to keep pets. In Afghanistan it is a matter | :22:52. | :22:57. | |

to another. Hake eventually arrived at the quarantine kennels. She was | :23:13. | :23:21. | |
shell-shocked. It was a long journey. She was very thin. Sad. | :23:21. | :23:26. | |
Within a matter of weeks, she has come on leaps and bounds and we are | :23:26. | :23:32. | |
really pleased. The six-month waiting quarantine is nearly over | :23:32. | :23:42. | |
:23:42. | :23:43. | ||
and for the family the day cannot come soon enough. The family visit | :23:43. | :23:50. | |
two or three times a week, always very special times. She is the only | :23:50. | :23:54. | |
one who knew detail of what happened with Conrad out there. It | :23:54. | :24:01. | |
is so nice to look after something he cannot look after any more. | :24:01. | :24:07. | |

organisation called 353 to raise money for what he was doing. | :24:55. | :24:59. | |

a feeling of excitement and anticipation. And an awful lot of | :25:04. | :25:14. | |

Now there is just the half hour car journey home. No problem for a car | :25:28. | :25:34. | |
smuggled in a taxi, ferried by a helicopter and flown at 30,000 feet. | :25:34. | :25:42. | |
Just one question, how will take and Fergie, the bulldog, get on? | :25:42. | :25:49. | |
That did not seem to go too well, originally. She was not showing too | :25:49. | :25:58. | |

Not much else we can do for him. I think he would be very pleased with | :26:21. | :26:31. | |

Met's most senior officers. Today he was jailed after being found | :27:28. | :27:31. | |
guilty of corruption for a second time. He framed a man he falsely | :27:31. | :27:34. | |
accused of assault. A deaf girl was kept in the cellar | :27:34. | :27:37. | |
