‘The Wonder of Working with people with learning disabilities’

Pova and Poca Lists

R (Wright) v Secretary of State for Health and Another
The House of Lords decided today that the procedure relating to Care Workers under Part VII of the Care Standards Act 2000 does not comply with the Human Rights Act 1998.


Care workers who look after vulnerable adults and are suspended or dismissed for misconduct, putting their charges at risk, are required to be reported to the Secretary of State by anyone who runs a care home or domiciliary service. Their names may then be placed provisionally on a list (the POVA list) which prevents them being employed to look after vulnerable adults. This provisional listing may or may not be confirmed. This scheme is modelled on the arrangements of those who work with children under the Protection of Children Act 1999 (the POCA list).
