Warwickshire Police manage the Police National Vetting Service (PNVS) on behalf of Policing Nationally. The unit brings together one of the largest groups of experienced vetting case officers in the country.

The NPCC has agreed that Warwickshire Police will vet non-police national contractors to a level appropriate to the requirements of this APP, act as an authority in that respect on behalf of all police forces in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

Contractors vetted by the PNVS are accepted by all forces. This removes the need for forces to duplicate vetting.
