I have what I think is some very interesting news about a possible campaign.
I have met with leading international privacy lawyers who are prepared to act for free in relation to raising the issue of unlawful information sharing between LAs and their NHS colleagues in the SEN process. This will include issues of disclosing reports to Tribunal without consent, passing on information without consent, discussing our children to fix up reports and inaccurate information in reports, etc
They have said they will organise a meeting with the ICO and throw their weight behind lobbying for the issue of clear guidelines.
The firm are prepared to do all the leg work for this as a pro bono project. They are looking for case examples of these practices so we can compile a dossier.
I know some of us have been on the receiving end of some very shoddy practices.
Can you PM me if you would like to get involved by sharing your story? This would be treated confidentially and used just to lobby the ICO. it could be anonymised if you would prefer
