Why did Liverpool City Council release the names of children and their parents in childcare proceedings and a vulnerable adult?

                                    

I do not have permission from either the Family Court nor the Court of Protection to publish the names of parties involved in these cases with Liverpool City Council. So those names I have blurred in green.

Yet, in what will not surprise anyone Liverpool City Council’s redactions of these documents during a public inspection meant the names of parents, children and parties was revealed to me. Their staff even let me take away copies.

Before publication I have covered some of these up in green.

Liverpool City Council’s Chief Executive in his capacity as Combined Authority Returning Officer states that we are not a media organisation.

Whereas Liverpool City Council may wish to live in a world where they can control the media, there is a point where it can backfire. The press is independent.

If you wish to make decisions about the press, then you are fair game for the press to write about.

Maybe ICO will slap them on the wrist and tell them to improve.

Or maybe this sort of matter is taken seriously?

I don’t know, but tomorrow voters in Wavertree will get to vote whether they want more of the same or a change.

Is the way Liverpool City Council treats the personal information of vulnerable adults and children replicated in their attitude towards how they treat them? With a lack of care?

  1. G’day John

    What a lovely day to waste your time voting for another layer of crud.

    They wouldn’t want you anywhere near the elections after Tour, Blott et al made fools and dicks out of themselves in that trial over Kev and Stella’s Stinking Stagnant wirral Waters.

    Remember they couldn’t recall anything, Burgess wouldn’t share his filthy lucre but that didn’t stop them in their £80,000.00+ farce of showing the downtrodden that they really are downtrodden and wei=ghed down by the weight of Tours massive timepiece.

    Ooroo

    James

    I think they will have insulted enough people with that connived trial someone will speak up about this election and its mistakes?????

    Pig flu to them all John….. the swines.

    1. I went to the polling station today, I will be publishing a blog post about my experience later.

      Updated 4.5.17 9:37 I have written about my experience at Voting begins in LCRCA Mayoral election and Claughton byelection (polls close at 10 pm)

      I still have my notes from what was said at the Employment Tribunal and on a quiet news day might write some more of it up. However you were there so you know what went on.

      As to speaking up, fortunately (or unfortunately) that is what I am am known for.

      Although there are days I would quite happily like there to be nothing to write about as it would be an indication that matters have improved.
