What can you tell me about Sarah's Law?

I'm interested in looking someone up. I have my suspicions. The mother of my child is moving in with her partner in a couple of weeks. So far he hasn't had much to do with my daughter but I feel uncomfortable after recently hearing some rumours about him.
I also have my suspicions that my ex girlfriend is aware of his past but isn't being truthful about it.
What will Sarah's Law provide me with.
Some of the rumours I've heard is that he only received a caution, not a conviction. Will that have an effect on the result?
Ive also been told it was some time ago. About 10 years give or take a few. Will that have an effect on whether they tell me what he did in his past and whether my 5 year old is at risk?
Am going to be filing online tonight but it seems like such a long process and I fear they will already be living with him by the time I get this information back.

Google your local Police force and you will find the info you need.

If there are suspicions than this is what sarahs law is for. Sarahs law is here to. Protect our children and if you look up caution, a caution is a guilty plea. Which means they may have had the evidence in front of them surrounding what they have done which is in this case a child sex offence they were caught for. As a parent you cannot dismiss this offence, as a mum if she is aware he has even been arrested for such an offence, then you have to question what mother would be with such a partner knowing they are potentially a cautioned child sex offender. If you are aware of a case sarahs law will highlight this upon a report made. If there is no concern from what I have read they simply tell you no there isn't. However caution or Conviction makes no difference. This is a caution against a child sex offender and the police don't joke about these things which means the evidence was overwhelming and obvious. That will not be taken lightly within this law. And every parent deserves the right to know. But moving forward a mum if they know this person is cautioned for child sex offenses surely you would like to think not a chance being near them in protection of their children. There's more to be said against anyone with child sex offenses but absolutely not if I knew there was one near my child. Lookup your local police force for more info. Also look up a caution if guilty of that offense but it didn't go to Conviction if they admit to it. That means however they are still guilty of this and no thanks near my children.
