"Why are you "wrong in law"?"
I am going to ask them that precise question but just wanted to see if
anybody had any views?

Dear Julie,
I don't think it's your responsibility to hand over the rental
agreement.
I have a somewhat similar query I was just about to post...
Member of Staff, let's call him A, is estranged from wife, let's call
her B.
B writes to us to tell us we need to tell A to sort out CSA payments
and asks us to tell her what we are doing about it.
We write letter to B acknowledging receipt of her letter but do not go
further as we will not enter into any further correspondence because
we
can not discuss a third party with her.
A's solicitor then writes to us and says we have been discussing A
with
B and that is a breach of A's data protection rights.
We write to solicitor noting that we have only acknowledged a letter
and have done nothing further.
Solicitor asks for copy of acknowledgment letter. We refuse as it is
private correspondence between us and B and does not refer to A at
all.
Solicitor writes again, telling us we are wrong in law ("with
respect")
and we have to hand over the letter.
Any views?
Graham

Hello everyone, a real corker of a Friday afternoon question coming
up,
sorry!
The query - A lady is joint owner of a property (but she doesn't live
there) with her soon to be ex husband and believes that the address
has
been used to secure school placements for her daughter and another
child.
Her daughter, and the other child, do not live and have never lived at
the address. She has not given her permission to use the property
address for their school admission applications and she does not wish
to
be party to a deception (the children have been offered a place at a
school based on us receiving this inaccurate information).
The lady has discovered that we hold a rental agreement in respect of
the property and that we used this as evidence (in good faith) to
secure
a place for her daughter. The lady was unaware of the agreement which
is between her soon to be ex brother-in-law and a female who is the
mother of the second child....still with me?!
She has now asked for a copy of the rental agreement; I suspect this
to
do with points scoring in a divorce than anything else.
The question is - is she entitled to a copy of the agreement under DP
or
FoI? Or neither? I'm really struggling with this and would really
appreciate other members' views.
Many thanks,
Julie
