Where:London
Start Time:2008-09-11 09:00:00
End Time:2008-09-11 17:00:00
Notes:At a time when the Children and Young Persons Bill 2007 – government legislation designed to improve the lives of children in care – is making its way through parliament, this conference will bring together many perspectives of the complexities and challenging issues presented when sharing information from childcare records. It will provide an opportunity to hear the experience of post care adults – the people directly affected. It will seek to address the ethical, legal and practical issues surrounding the disclosure of information to post care adults within the constraints of the Data Protection Act 1998 and explore how these can be managed to ensure that post care adults can obtain the information they need about their family background and time in care.
