The cases of Ian’s Brigg’s only son, Gavin and Joanna Smith’s brother Jonny O’ Neill outlines the role the Child Maintenance Service played in causing them to take their own lives. Despite Mr Briggs being an administrator of Gavin’s estate, the CMS still refuses to provide him with Gavin’s data, which the ICO say he is fully entitled to receive. As with the lack of cooperation with with multiple and compliant Freedom of Information requests, the DWP (which formally admits it has a significant amount of data on suicides), refuses to provide it. STOPSuicides Group continues to make requests, for we believe that the DWP is covering up what is, in our view, likely to be a scandal looming on the horizon that will rock the British public as it unfolds.
