 From the ISA web site:

 From July 2010, people will be able to apply for registration with 
the VBS; and be continuously monitored. New entrants and those 
changing posts will apply first, to phase in the workforce gradually.

those who are, or are barred, aren't monitored at all.

Society is so topsy turvey at times.
