Video: Liberty: CRB checks 'breach human rights' The law which requires people to disclose all previous convictions to certain employers is a breach of human rights, the Court of Appeal ruled on Tuesday. The declaration of incompatibility granted by three judges headed by the Master of the Rolls, Lord Dyson, was hailed as a victory for common sense by civil liberties campaigners. Civil liberties campaigners had called for urgent reform of blanket provisions in the Criminal Records Bureau system which mean employees must automatically disclose all convictions and cautions whether or not they are relevant to the job.
