Q1: Can you please clarify whether written consent is the only form of consent accepted by your force when social care safeguarding professionals make police check requests to you force?

No – written consent is not the only form of consent accepted.

Q2: If true, can you please outline the legal basis for written consent to be the only acceptable form of consent, thank you

As the Q1 is not true, then this question is no information held.
