New PVG Online system launched

Do you organise PVG’s for your volunteers? If so, you may be interested to know that Disclosure Scotland has introduced a digital channel for online PVG applications. Disclosure Scotland has introduced a digital channel to accept PVG applications online.

PVG Online will provide:

  • a better, easier to use, PVG application service
  • faster turnaround in disclosure production
  • significant financial savings for organisations
  • a more efficient service for you

Taking a digital first approach, the new online PVG service will become the main application process for most PVG applications. An initial trial of the new service saw Disclosure Scotland process thousands of PVG applications from over 250 organisations.

Those who took part in the trial have seen key benefits, with:

•a better, easier to use, application service

You can access the service from Disclosure Scotland’s website. Organisations enrolled with Volunteer Scotland Disclosure Services (VSDS) can access PVG Online through VSDS. To find out more, please contact Disclosure Scotland viaresponse@disclosurescotland.gov.scot
