Appeal recent barring decision
For information on how to appeal a DBS decision please visit the DBS barring: appeals guidance.
You may ask the tribunal for permission to appeal if you think that DBS has made a mistake about a point of law, or about a finding of fact that was relied upon when barring you, or not removing you from one or both Barred Lists. If you want to appeal, you should send your application directly to the relevant tribunal no later than three months after the date of DBS' final decision letter.
If you apply for permission to appeal after three months, you must ask for an extension of time and explain why your application is late. The tribunal judge will decide whether to give you an extension of time. If an extension is not granted, your application will not be admitted, and you won't be able to appeal.
