§ 1116.4. Disclosure of certain information prohibited--Exceptions
No member of a postadjudication review board or staff member of such board may disclose any information regarding individual cases acquired from case reviews or be compelled to disclose such information except:
1. When such information pertains to criminal acts or violations of any law;
2. When the child was the victim of a crime. The members of the board or staff member of such board may be required by a court of competent jurisdiction to testify at any proceeding in which the commission of such a crime is the subject of inquiry; or
3. When the person waives the privilege by bringing charges against the board.
Nothing in this act1 shall be construed to prohibit any board member or staff member of such board from testifying in court hearings concerning matters of adoption, child abuse, child neglect, or matters pertaining to the welfare of children or from seeking collaboration or consultation with professional colleagues and administrative superiors on behalf of the child, parent or parents of the child.
Any person participating in a judicial proceeding as a postadjudication review board member shall be presumed prima facie to be acting in good faith and in so doing shall be immune from any civil liability that otherwise might be incurred or imposed.
