    Up to a million public sector workers could be allowed to access a Government database containing sensitive information on every child in England and Wales, it has emerged.

    Critics say the figure is three times higher than ministers told Parliament, and raises further privacy concerns about the controversial ContactPoint system.

    The database will contain the name, home address and school of all 11million children. It will also include information about their legal guardians.

    It is designed to make it easier for public bodies to share information. Those permitted by law to access it include bureaucrats such as school ‘administrators’ and ‘any employee’ of a police force.

    But campaigners fear that the greater the number of users, the more chance the database will be trawled by the likes of abusive former partners seeking a reunion.

    Phil Booth, of the NO2ID privacy campaign, said: ‘Rather than the 330,000 they have previously suggested – which was bad enough – it appears that a million or more people will be able to get access under the terms of the Children Act.

      Therefore condeming any child with any adolesent problems, or disabilitys such as low grade ASD, or even a wayward father (”the sins of the father – - – - – ” ) to become disatvantaged for life.

      But of course the million or so people viewing or trading in this info will hold no prejudices

      Reckon they’d better sort out the social services than make another f***ing database of sensitive information. If the money is spent on USEFUL things like training and employing social workers, then maybe we could prevent cases like Baby P.
      Child database sounds like a paedo shopping list.
      The ‘public bodies’ have not got my permission to hold information about my child! No one ever asked me!!!
