Anyone know about NSI vetting?

I have a mate (no, really) who got a conviction for a small amount of class A drugs (presumably Heroin) about three yrs ago. He ended up with a £60 fine so it was nothing serious.

Anyway, he is being offered a permanent position with a security alarm company as an installer but they tell him they will have to vet him.

He currently does jobs for them as a sole trader so he doesn't want to go through the vetting process if his drug conviction will be an issue.

So, does anyone know what the NSI (and crb) checks will be looking for , and is he screwed?

he doesn't want to admit to anything that isn't going to be an issue..

My buddy came clean and it seems that it went well for him !
