David,
Thanks for this. The regulations are

And it would look very much like if the request satisfies any of the
sections listed by Barbara, then they do indeed have powers to obtain the
information.
I never cease to be amazed at how difficult it can be finding government
published information!!!!
Simon Howarth.
