How to get a Permit

The new scheme is comprehensively documented on ScoutBase. Read FS 120100 first.

It is important to have read the relevant information on ScoutBase before submitting an application form.

Until the national database is available the following process is to be adopted.

The county will operate the new scheme in a similar way to the existing one. Applicants will submit an application to Keith Hampson our ACC Activities, it does not necessarily have to go via your DC. The ACC will forward it to an assessor, the assessor will then contact the applicant and the assessment form will be competed after assessment. The application form and the assessment form will then be sent by the assessor back to the ACC who will enter it on the county activities database and will then return it to the DC with a permit card. The DC will then interview the applicant and issue the permit.

Should the applicant have been assessed by an assessor from outside the county the application form and assessment form still need to be sent to the ACC for the details to be entered on the county activities database. Once the national database is working the county records will be transferred there. It will then be up to the DC's to update the national database and complete and issue the permit card.
