There is supposed to be guidance on the planning portal, but the link I have no longer works...
 
The guidance I have received from the ICO is that non-essential personal information should not be published - that would include signature, telephone number, and email address as well as anything extra within the text of the letter (particularly health information).

Subject: [data-protection] Planning Objection Letters and Data Protection

Morning,
 
Can anyone point me to a concise 'idiots guide' with regards to Data Protection and Planning information law?
 
Our planning section currently release 'all and sundry' regarding applications and objection letters, including signatures and phone numbers. I am uneasy about this as I think it is excessive and it doesn't add any value to the objection or anything else. However if we are allowed to do then I suppose there's not a lot I can do.
 
Many thanks
Steve
