How should information be shared?
Data Protection laws make sure personal information is used in the correct way.
Consent is when the child, young person or family agree to their information being shared.
The law says the lead professional and staff supporting a child or young person should only share information without consent if they think this will protect them.
Information should only be kept for as long as needed. Information should be kept safe and should not get lost or damaged.
The lead professional and staff supporting a child or young person and their families should be knowledgeable. They should always be open with families around information sharing.
