Being somewhat cynical I decided to apply for a basic disclosure certificate from Disclosure Scotland to check if my conviction has been filtered as it was spent on 10th March 2014 with the changes to ROA. I live in England. The offence is still listed on the certificate. I called Disclosure Scotland and there was no one able to deal with my issue. Their complaints email address (complaints@disclosurescotland.co.uk) is not valid.

I am livid. Any legal advice as to what can be done? This could be happening to other people who have declared no convictions. It is an absolute outrage. Surely disclosure of information such as this is an offence? Oh wait it's one rule for the government...
