Does anyone - particularly in local government - have a view on DPA issues
regarding petitions? Specifically, if residents present a petition to the
Council on a matter of local concern, are the names and addresses
effectively in the public domain, or should the Council only be processing
them (i.e. disclosing ) for the purpose of dealing with the specific issue ?
