Police constable application checks

The request was refused by West Yorkshire Police.

Scott James Dunn

Dear West Yorkshire Police,

I ant to know, when someone applies to be a police constable or special constable what checks are carried out on the persons background and what agency they are checked with.

Generic information is available on your recruitment pages but i would like to know what specific information is requested and who it's requested from.

For example:

Medical details - Applicant's doctor via applicant.
Employer reference - Direct from current and former employers.
PNC check - Via West Yorkshire Police
Intelligence check - With forces in which areas they have lived.
Security checks - MI5

etc.

Yours faithfully,
Scott James Dunn

West Yorkshire Police
