British Transport Police Introduces Barred and Advisory Lists Under New 2026 Regulations

The British Transport Police Authority is now required to maintain and manage two separate lists under the Crime and Policing Act 2026: a barred persons list and an advisory list. These lists apply specifically to the British Transport Police Force and establish mechanisms for identifying individuals subject to employment restrictions or advisory warnings within the force. The regulations implement Schedule 25 of the Crime and Policing Act 2026 to create standardised vetting and personnel management procedures across the transport policing sector.
