Subject: [data-protection] Friday Question: Duty of Care?
The Council has concerns about a claimant who is showing becoming increasingly frustrated about his benefit payments and as a result has made irrational threats (in anger) regarding contractors (not the
Council's) going to his tenanted property to undertake works.
Does the Council have a duty of care to the landlord to inform the landlord that his tenant is a potential threat to the health and safety of the workmen he has employed? If so what is the legal basis to share this information?
Answers on a postcard please :)
