Introduction
The Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups
Act 2006 (SVGA) places a legal duty on employers and personnel suppliers to refer any person who has:
• Harmed or poses a risk of harm to a child or vulnerable adult;
• Satisfied the harm test; or
• Received a caution or conviction for a
relevant offence.

A regulated activity provider is an organisation or individual that is responsible for the management or control of regulated activity, paid or unpaid, and makes arrangements for people to work in that activity. This will usually be an employer
or a voluntary organisation. Examples of
a regulated activity provider would be: an NHS hospital or Health and Social Care Trust that employs people to provide care, supervision and advice to children and vulnerable adults; a Further Education College that provides education to children under 18 years of age; or a specialist educational establishment that provides education to vulnerable adults.
A regulated activity provider can also be a person who manages volunteers in a regulated activity position, such as a scout leader or as part of a charitable organisation.
