UK: local authority has no obligation to reveal HIV status of foster parent.
The England and Wales High Court, Family Division ruled in July of 2005 that a local authority is under no obligation to reveal to a child's natural parents the fact that the child's foster father is HIV-positive. In his decision, Sumner J determined that the foster father's right to privacy outweighed any potential risk to the child.
