If it’s not an offence then it should have a right to be removed. If it is a legal offence like DUI, then it should remain.

What about the legal offences that expire?

An employer might ask to see my driving licence, which includes convictions, for a driving job. A UK equivalent of DUI expires off the licence after 10 years I think. If the law no longer requires it to be revealed, surely it should be removable?

Agreed, that makes sense.
