it was 2 years ago that it happend

 

might not be long enough mate, but phone em first and ask.

 

My local FEO says convictions are "spent" after 5 years regarding SG applications, unles it's a "SERIOUS" offence. (Whatever categorie that includes!) HTH. Cheers, D.

Hi dytkos,was told that to but the fact is they are never "spent"

If they look and can't find anything on you they will go right back,so if someone think's oh! that happened 10 years ago

i won't declare it,it will go against you,atb NID.

in as far as the law goes any conviction you have received is taken into account and its down to the enquiry officer to make his recomedation to the dcc of your local costabulary.

 

ive only ever had one conviction and that was for vandalism in 1999 i was an acssessory after the fact,

 

now i have put in for my sgc 3 times all to no avail the third was after speaking to basc who assured me if i was given a reffusal they would back me in an appeal as the faeo had never given me the 2 satisfactory reasons for reffusal on my previous apps.(they are requied by law to gve 2 good reasons as to why you dont get it)

 

low and behold i got my 3rd knock back and when i contacted basc to let them know i got stonewalled and told they wouldnt be appealing my case as there was no point in law to be made.

 

all you can do mate is be as open and honest as possible and see what happens.

 

OH and just a point to note you DONOT have to have a permmision in order to hold an sgc,

 

good luck mate and i hope you get it.

yeah i used to think they were an ok bunch nid but i dont think there to interested in the avarage joe, they preffer to wine and dine the upper echlons with there dinner parties etc,

 

after my last encounter i lost all faith in them,

Ha ha. He doesn't need my support he just need's to put in for his cert and see how he goes. On the other hand i'm sure you search out this question on all forums so you can revel in telling everyone how many fights you've had and what a troublesome character you are, laughable really.

Whose picking a fight im pointing out the FACT that when this question is asked you always feel the need to tell everybody about your past. I doubt your application was knocked back because of your history. It was more than likely your FEO realised(as have I) that your a complete bellend. Anyway enough on the matter i've said my piece, I bid you farewell.

[i bid you farewell] .the only true words you have spoken sonnyboy
