The following situation is, of course, purely hypothetical, but possibly some of you may have given some thought to it.
The Data Protection registration of Apennine District Council does not include elected members in the list of sources and disclosures (and I would assume that they never could be).
If Councillor X intimidates Council employee A into disclosing personal information, without the knowledge or authority of the data subject, is this obtaining without the consent of the data controller and therefore an offence? Has the employee committed an offence or is it the Council?
Any thoughts?
