Hello all
The charity I work for has received a request from the police for personal contact details and dates of birth of several employees (some have since left us), and their reasons for leaving the organisation. The police want to take statements from them relating to fraud which was committed against us a few years ago (the perpetrator is in custody awaiting trial).
Under section 29 of the DPA I feel reasonably comfortable sharing contact details, but the additional information (dates of birth and reasons for leaving) seems unnecessary? Any advice would be appreciated, I'm quite new to data protection and we're not used to dealing with these sorts of requests from the police...
Thank you in advance
Janet
