We have received a request from an organisation that manages rented
accommodation on behalf of the council. They want us to confirm whether an
individual was a student here and if so to provide the dates and contact
addresses. They are quoting section 35.2 of the Data Protection Act but
provide no more details as to why they require the information.
Is this enough information for us to disclose or should they provide us
with more information? Whilst on the subject does anyone know of any
guidelines as to when sections 35 and 29 (although not mentioned this time)
can be applied?
