Further Guidance

Police Officers are in a privileged position with regard to access of information and could be considered potentially vulnerable to corruption. Applicants to the police service should not therefore be under pressure from undischarged debts or liabilities and should be able to manage loans and debts sensibly.

Applicants who have existing County Court Judgements outstanding against them or who have been registered bankrupt, and their bankruptcy debts have not been discharged, will not be considered.

Applicants who have discharged County Court Judgements may be considered.

Applicants who have been registered as bankrupt and their bankruptcy debts have been discharged will only be considered after three years from discharge of the debt.

Recruitment is dependent upon successful financial vetting checks.
