Potential Violent Warning Markers

Wendy Worsley made this Freedom of Information request to Burnley Borough Council

The request was successful.

From: Wendy Worsley

1 October 2008

Dear Sir or Madam,

I should like to know if the council uses Potential Violent Warning
markers (or similar description) against its citizens in any of its
databases. In particular if these markers are used:
1 how many databases are they used in?
2 who is the senior nominated person in the council who makes the
decision that a person should have such a
marker added to his/her records?
3 what is the mean time to review the presence of these markers,
also what are the shortest and longest times between reviews?
4 how many such markers are current at the present time (or if a
date is required, 1/10/08)?
5 how many of the persons with such markers have you written to, to
inform them that a marker exists against their personal record?
6 if/when you have written to them, on how many occasions have you
explained the reason(s) why they have a marker against their
record?

Yours faithfully,

Wendy
