Can you please advise:

2. How many of the total employees have been designated as Core Children's Workers?
3. How many of the total employees have been designated as non-core Children's workers?
4. The total cost to ADHB to date of VCA checks on ADHB employees, broken down as Police check costs, Personnel (HR and manager) and other costs?
5. How many existing employees were discovered to have something that prevented them from continuing to be employed as a children's worker as a result of the VCA checks?

Yours faithfully,
