28/07/2017 London News

and on BBC One we now join the BBC's news teams where you are.

BBC London has discovered that hundreds of sensitive documents have

been stored in an unlocked room on a South London estate.

The paperwork included child protection and rent arrears issues -

showing names, addresses, and other confidential information.

It was left at the Gaudun Estate in Clapham, as Sarah Harris reports.

The Gaudun estate in Clapham, concerned red dent Mitchell Krishnan

contacted BBC London about what he saw as a fire hazard. On closer

inspection it was clear the documents were sensitive and

confidential. Lambeth ACPC child protection interagency protection...

Wow. Oh, my God. This is just unbelievable. This is data

protection against possibly child abuse or whatever. It's just left

here. The piles of Lambeth Council paperwork have been scored in the

unlocked ground floor storeroom as long as he can remember. They also

include names and addresses of families in rebt arrears -- rent

arrears. This is disgusting that it's just left here for anybody,

like myself, and yourself to be able to see this information and possibly

use it in an horrible, ugly way that possibly it could be used in. It's

not, it's not being protected while it's exposed like this. These

documents need to be shredded by a professional company, so that they

can never be used in the wrong way. We took some of the documents to a

leading solicitor on data protection based on Chancery Lane. This is very

serious from the council's perspective. He's worked for the

Australian Government and the Obama administration in the US, advising

on data protection issues. He says this kind of security failure is

being taken increasingly seriously by the courts under the Data

Protection Act. Organisations have very serious responsibilities around

the data they hold and the data they create. If a local council were to

just dispose of data in a way, in a basement or in a way that's

inappropriate, that would probably breach their obligations under the

act. The department for Culture, Media Sport has only changed its

name to include the word "digital". That's partly to emphasise its

commitment to data protection issues, its regulator is about to

become a whole lot tougher. In the case of this Clapham paperwork,

Lambeth council has thanked the BBC for drawing what it calls a

potential brief to its attention, a review is under way. At the very

least this will serve as a warning to all organisations. In the coming

months, fined could go from tens of thousands of pounds to millions of

pounds. Three Crossrail building contractors

have been fined more than ?1 million following the death of one

of their workers and Rene Tkacik was crushed to death

by falling concrete, while Terrence Hughes

and Alex Vizitie were seriously hurt Dan Freedman was at Southwark

Crown Court this morning. We've just heard the cross-rail

contractor BFK are going to be fined ?300,000 for their part in the death

of working RRene Thacik who died in 2014. We can speak to his mother's

lawyer. She's Slovakian and doesn't speak a lot of English. So we have

Helen Clifford here. What is her reaction to this sentence? She's

extremely disappointed in the year that BFK killed Rene, 2014, their

turnover was ?317 million. So you think the fine is too little? It's

far too low, even when you combine the three fines together. It's just

far too low. Of course, we accept that it's not intebd tended to be a

reflection -- intended to be a reflection of the value of his life,

but it feels an insult. She's been attending from Slovakia at her own

expense. We understand that the firm are going to reimburse some of those

costs. They have agreed to reimburse some of those expenses exceeding

?6,000. She said, "I don't want that blood money. I've come here to

honour my son and look after him and his memory, she would like to donate

that sum to the construction safety campaign, because she wants Renee's

death to have some meaning. She wants to prevent other deaths. There

were two other cases today, with fines of ?600,000 and ?165,000 for

each one. They all concerns exclusion zones around dangerous

areas. It seems that wasn't happening systematically despite the

accidents happening on site. That's our concern. I act on behalf of Alex

Vizitie as well. The concern that I have is that I was first instructed

by him after the inquest into Renee's death. At the time of that

inquest, we were not made aware that his accident had occurred. The

family solicitor ending that report. There

The mayor's battle against air pollution continues today.

More than 8,000 people have signed a petition calling on Bromley

council to withdraw its plans for a new museum at

the historic RAF Chapel of Remembrance in Biggin Hill.

As it stands, the museum will be built around the building,

but the vestry will be knocked down and veterans and residents say

Built with backing from Sir Winston Churchill St George's Chapel is a

permanent memorial to the airmen who lost their lives in World War II.

Their names listed at the alter. The chapel is now at the centre a row

between the local council and campaigners. The authority has

approved plans to build a new museum around the existing chapel. But

campaigners say the design is appalling. They claim that a small

vestry would have to be demolished. They're worried that visitors to the

chapel might end up paying the museum entrance fee and veterans are

worried that they're worried, that their funerals, which currently take

place in the chapel itself, won't be able to take place whilst work is

going on. The council has defended the plans. What's most important is

about securing the future of St George's Chapel at Biggin Hill

airport, internationally renowned airport. The vision is about

remembering the few and honouring the many, not just the pilots from

the Second World War, but the local residents, that have been, not

forgotten, but can be set down in memory and on film for the future.

It is never forgotten. The opportunity for a lot of young

people to experience that for the first time ever. The stained glass

window will be saved and is safe. There will be no costs to going to

the chapel on a regular basis. We are securing the future. With regard

to the design, it's subjective, I understand why some people don't

like. It I do. I think it will be wrong to have it too ambitious. The

council say the museum will open in November next year. But it continues

to be opposed by campaigners. It's RideLondon this weekend,

a few roads will be But what's the weather going to be

like for the cyclists. Well, Sunday probably the better

looking day of the weekend actually. Let's cut to the chase. What's it

going to do? We might see heavy showers around. I think most of us

will stay dry. Top temperatures 21 or 22 degrees Celsius and there'll

be good spells of sunshine for the ride from London to Surrey, back to

London again. Good luck if you're doing it. Let's back track to this

morning. Beautiful Croydon, lovely sun rise, a lot less pretty this

afternoon, though. We have showers towards the south. Most of us dry

until this evening. Plenty of cloud around and we'll see strengthening

south-westerly wind as well. Top temperatures of 20 or 21 degrees. It

is a bit disappointing for this time in July. If you're going out this

evening, just be aware that it's going to be really rather wet. We'll

see heavy outbreaks of rain, particularly through the small hours

of tomorrow morning and some rather gusty winds across south-eastern

areas of the capital, so Kent really for early risers tomorrow morning.

Lows of around 15 or 16 Celsius. This is the start of the day

tomorrow. I think we'll see brightness and sunshine. So it's a

nice first half of the day. Then the cloud amounts increase. We get more

rain up from the south heading into Saturday afternoon. You might want

to cancel the barbeque and night out. Wet on Saturday evening, Sunday

is looking better. The chance of one or two heavy showers, but mostly dry

and there'll be sunny spells as well. Highs of around 22 Celsius.

That's it from me. We're back with our evening programme at 6. 30pm.

For now, from myself and the rest of the team, have a good afternoon
