The slight complication is that the Isle of Man is not in the EEA and
although it has similar Data Protection legislation to the UK's, this had
not been OK'd by the EC the last time I checked.
You therefore also need to comply with a Schedule 4 condition.

> We have received a request for information regarding a student from the
> Social Services department on the Isle of Man. The reason for the
> request is that the student's parent is a child minder and therefore
> certain checks (similar to CRB) need to be undertaken. The request
> quotes the Children & Young Persons Act 2001 (a Tynwald act) as
> legitimacy for the request.
>
> Whilst I believe the request to be legitimate, I am aware of the peculiar
> IOM system ie part of the UK for some things but not all, not a member of

> I would be grateful if colleagues could suggest a way forward.
