Families of victims linked to the Southport and Nottingham attacks have demanded an end to unauthorised access to confidential medical records, describing the alleged breaches as an abuse of power.
The families’ concerns centre on the handling of private medical information connected to those affected by the attacks. They are calling for stronger protection of confidential records and for unauthorised access to be brought to an end.
The material available does not provide details of when the breaches occurred, how many records were involved, who accessed them or what action has been taken in response. It also does not identify any organisation or individual responsible.
The families’ demand highlights the sensitivity of medical information held about people affected by serious incidents. The latest known position is that they continue to seek an end to the unauthorised access and regard the handling of the records as a serious misuse of power.
