In some circumstances, Spent Conviction schemes do not apply, resulting in various levels of information release relating to:

• those involving people who work with children (and in some states or territories other vulnerable groups)
• decisions made by the Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre as part of its anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing activities
• checks for Aviation Security Identification Cards and Maritime Security Identification Cards
• National health security holders
• decisions made under the Australian Citizenship Act 2007 (Cth)
• decisions made under the Migration Act 1958 (Cth).

The information that is released on a police check is done so in consideration of the individual's role, industry, contact with vulnerable groups and state (to assess relevant legislation).

If you require more information: the Commonwealth, and each state and territory publishes their disclosure schemes online.
