The Garda Central Vetting Unit (GCVU) provides employment vetting for a large number of organisations in Ireland registered with the Gardaí for this purpose and which employ persons in a full-time, part-time, voluntary or training capacity to positions where they would have substantial, unsupervised access to children and/or vulnerable adults.
I am informed by the Garda authorities that the GCVU has no record of a vetting application from the organisation referred to by the Deputy on behalf of the person concerned. In the circumstances, I can only suggest that the person seeks clarification from this organisation.
