Garda Vetting

What is Garda Vetting?

Anyone who works or volunteers with children and vulnerable adults must go through Garda vetting. This is a process to check whether you have a criminal record, or if there is any specified reason why you might pose a threat to vulnerable people.

Garda vetting is conducted by the Garda Siochána National Vetting Bureau, who will send a vetting disclosure to the organisation.

Currently, when someone is Garda vetted, they do not have to be re-vetted unless they move job or change position.
