It hasn't held him back until now because he's been self employed. Not many of us didn't do something daft in our youth.

That's why the offence still shows up on a DBS check then. In 2013 the Court of Appeal ruled that the automatic disclosure of all offences (irrespective of how long ago they took place) on a DBS certificate contravened Article 8 of the Human Rights Act. So the Government introduced legislation meaning that where a person only has a SINGLE criminal conviction (which is not for certain specified offences, such as sexual ones) that conviction will be wiped from their DBS record after 11 years (or 5½ years if they were a juvenile at the time of the conviction) UNLESS that conviction resulted in any form of custodial sentence.
