(04/15/2010)Strictly speaking, unlike Local Authorities, Housing Associations and Registered Social Landlords are NOT legally bound by the contents of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 (R.I.P.A) However, non-compliance of the regulations contained within the act are hugely relevant to using covert surveillance as a means of evidence gathering, and could be used as a defence in legal proceedings.
As such, Warwickshire Investigation Agency would strongly recommend to all Housing Authorities and RSL's that they closely mirror the regulations set out in R.I.P.A in their guidelines with regard to their surveillance polices.
In addition we recommend that further consideration should also be given to the following areas:
- Data Protection Act 1998
- The Human Rights Act 1998
- Home Office codes of practice for covert surveillance
- Private Securities Industries Act 2001
- Housing Corporation guidance
