My area, the typical documents are the Police Check and a Child Welfare Check.
I agree, the police check is worth less than the paper it's written on. It only shows something that I have been charged with or prosecuted for. If someone has been pardoned, that won't even come up.
The Child Welfare Check will show any investigations done by Family Services, like any allegations of abuse and so on. Funnily enough, I have never had parents ask me for it, even though it has slightly more relevance. I say slightly, because I still would have to have been reported to have anything show up.
Silly.

On a side note; why so cranky? Everything ok in the Alphagetti house? Or just havin' a bad day?
