With emerging technologies the issue of members of the public filming recording staff is becoming more prevalent (for example when on a visit to see member of staff about a complaint, or in a meeting/discussion with a member of staff regarding their welfare or benefits, or just speaking to a member of staff in a reception area etc etc) .
My view is that staff do not have to subjected to this, and can refuse. Would the member of the public be considered a DC and therefore attract all the responsibilities that that entails? I can't see that that could rely on the domestic purposes exemption.
Any thoughts?
