STATEMENT OF HMG PERSONNEL SECURITY AND NATIONAL SECURITY VETTING POLICY
Minimum Personnel Security Controls
1. It is HM Government's policy that all areas of government and the
national infrastructure should include in their recruitment processes
certain basic checks. These checks include verification of the applicant's
identity, employment history, their right to work in the UK and, if
appropriate, checks of any unspent criminal records. Within government
these controls are described in the Baseline Personnel Security
Standard. In addition, the Centre for the Protection of National
Infrastructure (CPNI) produces a range of relevant guidance on
personnel security and makes similar advice available to the wider
national infrastructure.
National Security Vetting
2. National security vetting comprises a range of additional checks and may
be applied where a risk assessment indicates it is proportionate to do so.
The risk assessment process takes account of the access an individual
may have to sensitive assets (physical, personnel or information) at risk
from a wide range of threats. These threats include: terrorism,
espionage, or other actions that could threaten the United Kingdom. The
requirements of international agreements concerning the protection of
allies' information may also inform such assessments.
3. It is government policy that individuals should not be expected to hold an
existing security clearance in order to apply for posts that require vetting,
except where such posts are short term and need to be filled urgently.
4. There are three different types of national security vetting clearance:
Counter Terrorist Check (CTC), Security Check (SC) and Developed
Vetting (DV). Before any such clearance is undertaken the requirements
of the Baseline Personnel Security Standard must be met. Whilst the
information required and the range and depth of checks undertaken at
each level may vary, they are all intended to allow Government
departments and agencies, the Armed Forces and police forces to
assess whether individuals who are to be employed in sensitive posts or
critical functions might represent a security risk either directly or
indirectly.
Checks
5. Individuals subject to national security vetting (including UK nationals
taking up sensitive posts in international organisations) will be asked to
provide via questionnaire personal information about themselves,
partners, family members and other associates. It may be checked, and
retained for future checks, against:
• Relevant personnel records held by the employing department or
company
• Criminal records (both spent and unspent as defined by the
Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974)
• Information held by the Security Service.
• Credit reference agency records
6. The process may also take account of:
• Financial circumstances generally
• Third party character references
• Any medical considerations that could give rise to security concerns
7. Interviews with the vetting subject and referees may be carried out to
establish good character and to verify information that has been
provided.
Decision Making
8. National security vetting decisions may only be taken by Government
departments, agencies, the Armed Forces or police forces. All the
available information is taken into account to reach a reasoned decision
on an individual's suitability to hold a security clearance.
9. Security clearances may be refused or withdrawn where:
• There are security concerns related to an individual's involvement or
connection with activities, organisations or individuals associated with
the threats described in this Statement (or any similar new threats
that emerge);
• Personal circumstances, current or past conduct indicate that an
individual may be susceptible to pressure or improper influence;
• Instances of dishonesty or lack of integrity cast doubt upon an
individual's reliability;
• Other behaviours or circumstances indicate unreliability.
10. Wherever possible existing employees will have an opportunity to
discuss, comment on and challenge any adverse information that
arises. However in certain circumstances it may not be possible to
share such information as this could compromise national security, the
public interest or third party confidentiality.
Avenues of Appeal
11. Existing employees who are subject to national security vetting and
either refused a security clearance or whose clearance is withdrawn
may appeal against such decisions. All departments and agencies that
carry out national security vetting must provide for an internal appeal
process. Where individuals remain dissatisfied they may appeal to
the Security Vetting Appeals Panel, an independent body.
12. The Panel will consider the case, review the information and invite the
appellant and the organisation to make representations. The Panel will
make recommendations to the Head of Department or organisation in
the light of its findings as to whether the decision should stand or be
reviewed. The Panel may also comment on the security vetting
procedures and adequacy of the internal appeal arrangements.
13. There are no national security vetting appeal routes for applicants for
employment who are refused a security clearance. Separate
arrangements exist for applicants, employees and contractors of the
security and intelligence agencies, who may complain to the
Investigatory Powers Tribunal. Any individual may apply to an
Employment Tribunal if they feel that they have been discriminated
against in any part of the recruitment process.
Ongoing Personnel Security Management
14. The national security vetting process provides an assessment of the
vetting subject at the time the process is carried out but active ongoing
personnel security management is required to ensure that a security
clearance maintains its currency. As a minimum this will involve active
consideration of the vetting subject's continuing conduct in respect of
security matters; it will also require checks to be repeated at regular
intervals.
Please note that any information provided will be treated in strict confidence. In cases where a potential risk is identified, and a decision
taken to 'manage the situation' rather than refuse security clearance, those tasked with managing that risk will need the appropriate
information in order to do this effectively.
Failure to disclose relevant circumstances or information is likely in itself to be regarded as evidence of unreliability and will
be taken into account when assessing your suitability for security clearance. It is therefore in your own interests to be honest
and open in the information you provide in this questionnaire.

26. Your Character Referees
Please give details of a minimum of three referees (NOT RELATIVES OR PARTNERS AND PREFERABLY NOT SUPERVISORS
OR EMPLOYERS) who, collectively, must have known you well over the past 10 years. At least one of the referees should be
someone in your own age group. They should preferably be British citizens (but this is not obligatory) and, since it may be
necessary for them to be interviewed, they must be able to make themselves available for that purpose in the UK or in a major
military base overseas. YOU SHOULD TELL YOUR REFEREES THAT YOU WISH TO PUT THEIR NAMES FORWARD.
Referees should between them cover each specific area in which you have lived during this period: thus additional referees
should be named if you have moved frequently during the last 10 years. It is not sufficient to nominate someone you know
officially or professionally, such as a doctor, unless you know them socially as well. Similarly, staff members of a school,
college or university should not be chosen unless they are close personal friends. Referees should include a person (not a
partner), who knows you well in your home environment and ideally someone (other than a supervisor or employer) who
knows you well in the work environment.

27. Health Declaration
Please read the following BEFORE answering the questions below and overleaf about your health.
In some cases it may be necessary to consult your doctor and you may be asked to attend a medical examination. Any enquiries
will be conducted by the Defence Vetting Agency's Vetting Medical Adviser (VMA), an approved Occupational Health Organisation
(OHO) or Medical Officer (MO), such as BMI Health Services,or approved Medical officer (MO). In all but the most exceptional
circumstances, these reports will not be made available to Departmental Security Officers, Personnel Officers or to line management.
Exceptionally, a medical report may need to be seen by an appropriate senior person in your vetting authority in order to help reach a
proper assessment of your suitability to hold a security clearance. This may or may not include access to your full medical records. In
such cases, you will be asked to give your consent for this to be done.
If you answer 'yes' to Question 27b, c, d or e below, you will be asked to sign the declaration on page 36. By doing so,you will
be giving your consent, under the terms of the Access to Medical Reports Act 1988, for the VMA/OHO/MO to obtain a medical
report from your doctor or other specialist, if this is considered necessary. Under the terms of the Act, you have the right to
withhold your consent at any stage in the process, but you should be aware that this may mean it is not possible to grant or
renew your security clearance.
Once you have given your consent, you have the right to see the medical report before it is supplied to the VMA/OHO/MO. The
VMA/OHO/MO will write to tell you that they have requested a report, and you will have 21 days from the date of their letter in which to
ask your doctor or other specialist to let you see the report before it is forwarded to them. Your doctor or other specialist will tell you if
you cannot see any part of the report for professional medical reasons. If you are given access to your report, it will not be forwarded to
the VMA/OHO/MO until you give your consent.
If you think any information in the medical report is incorrect or misleading, you can ask in writing for it to be amended. You should note
that if your doctor or other specialist does not accept the information as incorrect or misleading, they do not have to make any
amendment. They will however invite you to prepare a written statement on the disputed information, which will be attached to the
medical report when it is sent to the VMA/OHO/MO. Subject to the provisions of the Act, you have a right to see the medical report for
up to six months after it has been sent to the VMA/OHO/MO. If your doctor or other specialist gives you a copy of the medical report at
your request, they may charge you a reasonable fee to cover the cost of supplying it.
Now please answer the following questions about your health. Although it may be taken into account, information
provided will not necessarily prevent you having a security clearance.
Yes
No
Certain psychological and medical conditions may have security implications.
a. Are you currently taking any medication?
b. Have you suffered at any time from clinical depression, mental illness,nervous
breakdown/nervous debility, serious medical or psychological problems?
c. Do you suffer, or have you ever suffered from any condition that may cause occasional
and momentary loss of consciousness, for example epilepsy, insulin-dependent diabetes
and certain heart conditions?
d. Are you currently or have you ever been a habitual user of addictive substances (e.g.
drugs or alcohol)?
e. Are you aware of any health matters not already covered by your previous answers
which might affect your suitability for access to sensitive information or assets?
If you have answered 'No' to all the above questions, go to Question 28. You need not sign the next page.

28. Criminal Convictions & Related Matters
In line with HM Government's policy on vetting on page 3, you must declare any matter
which may be relevant.
This includes:
any criminal convictions which you may have, including those which are 'spent'. In line with the Rehabilitation of
Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975, the Rehabilitation of Offenders (Exclusions and Exceptions)(Scotland) Order 2003, and
the Rehabilitation of Offenders (Exceptions) Order (Northern Ireland) 1979, spent convictions may be taken into account where national
security is concerned. In Northern Ireland, spent convictions may also be taken into account where protecting public safety or public
order is involved.
You must reveal all convictions, whether or not spent, under the legislation.
The relevant department or agency will decide if a criminal conviction affects your security clearance. Although it may be taken into
account, this information will not necessarily prevent you from being awarded a security clearance.
Please answer the three questions on the next page and
sign and date the section.
You have the option to detach the Criminal Declaration (page 38) should you wish the Vetting Authorities alone to see your
response on these matters. You should remove the section and place in an envelope, then seal the envelope, sign your name
across the flap and attach it to the front of the questionnaire before sending to your sponsor.
Failure to disclose relevant circumstances or information is likely in itself to be regarded as evidence of unreliability and will
be taken into account when assessing your suitability for security clearance.

Declaration
I declare that I have read and understood the statement of HM Government's policy on vetting on page 3 of this questionnaire.
I understand that in accordance with this policy the personal information that I have provided on this form about myself, my partner
(if applicable) and my family will be submitted for checking against national criminal and security records.
I understand that, a check against credit reference agency records and investigations into my financial circumstances will also be
carried out. I understand, too, that the information provided may be subject to ongoing checks where they are necessary and
proportionate.
I declare that the information I have given is true and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief, and I understand that any
false statement or deliberate omission in the information I have given in this questionnaire may disqualify me from employment
(including employment in connection with Crown contracts if applicable) or make me liable to disciplinary action, which may include
dismissal.
I undertake to notify any material changes in the information I have given above (e.g. change of partner, address or financial
circumstances), including any future criminal convictions, to the Personnel or Security branch concerned.
Important: Data Protection Act 1998.
This questionnaire asks you to supply "personal" and "sensitive personal"data as defined by
the Data Protection Act 1998. You will be supplying this data to the appropriate vetting authority where it will be processed
exclusively for the purpose of security vetting, in accordance with HM Government's vetting policy, save that, in the highly unlikely
event that data supplied by you discloses or suggests that:
i. a criminal offence has occurred or is likely to occur or,
ii. staff may be at risk of danger e.g. if you have been diagnosed with a serious mental condition as potentially endangering
yourself or others
then the vetting authority may pass on that information alone to the appropriate person(s). Subject to this, the vetting authority will
protect the information which you provide and will ensure that it is not passed to anyone who is not authorised to see it.
By signing the declaration on this page, you are explicitly consenting for the data you provide in this questionnaire to be
processed in the manner described above.
If you have any concerns about any of the questions we ask, or what we will do with the information you provide, which are not
answered by the guidance notes please contact the person who issued this form for further information.
Note:
Please review the form
BEFORE SIGNING
to ensure that all questions have been fully answered. Please check that you
have signed the Criminal Convictions Declaration on page 38 and (if you answered 'yes' to any question from 27b to 27e inclusive)
the Health Declaration on page 36.
When completed, this application form must be returned to your Sponsor. Contractors, please note at page 38 that you may detach
and place in a sealed envelope the Criminal Convictions & Related Matters page before returning the form to the Sponsor.
