Dealing with a local police service when conducting a criminal record check is the most comprehensive approach to ensuring public safety. Local police services, like the Strathroy-Caradoc Police Service, provide information not included in criminal record checks offered by third-party private companies, that only reference the RCMP National Repository of Criminal Records.
