Advice on the Law

[ian1989 0]

Hi guy's

 

Sorry didnt know where to post this but here goes.

 

My mother owns a nursing home in england, does anyone know the law on putting up mini/hidden cctv inside the building.

 

She suspects that there maybe someone not doing there job properly and asked me to install a hidden camera, like the ones hidden in clocks etc.

 

But whats the law on this, i read up somewhere that it could be entrapment and that you had to notify the workers and residents before using and such cctv system.

 

Does anyone have any advice?, i have asked for legal advice elsewhere but have been waiting for 6 days for a reply.

 

Thanks for any help, any advice asap would be greatly appreciated

Hi Ian. yes your mother can put cameras in covert or not. but the problem comes to installing them in rooms. it depends on the sort of problem you are having. if it is like the case that was in the papers a few weeks ago i.e staff not doing there job like the nurse turning off the life support machine. then yes you will need a company to do it for you and in the rooms can only be a tempory system.
