Dear Mr Logue

 

We write further to your recent information enquiry and apologise for the
slight delay in providing you with a response.

 

Further to your request for information in which you asked:

 

1. Please can you provide the name, contact and address details for each
children social service team and department - can I please have the
contact details for each social worker and the team they work on.

Please note the following information in relation to your freedom of
information request, the Council  have declined to provide the names of
employees in accordance with Data Protection Act 2018 and Freedom of
Information Act 2000.   Section 40 (2) of the Freedom of Information Act
2000 provides an exemption to disclose information where it constitutes
personal data. This exemption can be relied upon for information which is
personal data, where you are not the data subject.

 In accordance with the Information Commissioner’s guidance on disclosure
of data about employees, which can be found at this link,
[1]https://ico.org.uk/media/1187/section_40...
  , we consider the names of staff that are not of a level of seniority
constitutes their personal data and disclosure would contravene the Data
Protection Act 2018.  The Council further believes that disclosure of that
personal information would not provide any greater understanding of the
subject matter.

 

The Council therefore maintains that disclosure would contravene the Data
Protection Act 2018 relating to the protection of the rights of others.
You have the right under Section 17 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000
to ask for an internal review of the refusal of any of the information
requested. Please direct any request for an internal review to
[2][Wirral Borough Council request email] and your request will be allocated to
another officer for review.

 

2. Please can you provide the social work managers names per social work
team.

Please find attached the social work managers names per social work team.
