Care Act 2014. Sections 1 & 6
Care Act 2014. The Care Act provides for a number of ‘gateways’ that define both the types of information and the conditions for sharing. It also creates at least two clearly identifiable and broadly-framed implied statutory gateways for sharing information and data. In particular, Sections 6 and 7 provide a clear legal basis for information and data sharing arrangements between local authorities and other bodies in the adult social care field. The Section 45 gateway applies where a Safeguarding Adults Board makes a request of any person “to supply information to it, or to some other person specified in the request”. Where such a request is made then, subject to certain prescribed conditions being satisfied, that person is subject to a duty to share the requested information. The Act does not specify any grounds for refusal. The Section 79 gateway applies where a local authority authorises another person to carry out its functions (subject to certain functions which cannot be delegated: section 79(2)) under Part 1 of the Act. S.14 of the Care and Support Statutory Guidance sets out the expectations of Safeguarding Adults Boards (SAB) in relation to information sharing at para.14.186:
Care Act 2014 and others to comply if a SAB asks them to supply information or to another person, provided specified conditions are met.

The powers of the SAB are wide; being anything the SAB believes necessary to help and protect adults at risk of harm. See Section 43(2) of the Care Act 2014 which sets out the objective of the SAB. However, any information supplied by partner agencies or anyone else under section 45, may only be used by the SAB for the purpose of exercising its functions.
