You also need to talk with Immigration and find out if they are relying on
other powers that may need to be considered. Once you have these you can
then make a judgement yourself (don't take their word for it, necessarily).

Dear Brenda
The approach that I take myself to situations such as this is to contact the
organisation concerned. They normally come back within a reasonable
timescale when you tell them that it will make it easier for you to disclose
the information they need.
You need to check the legislation yourself , of course, to confirm the right
in to your own satisfaction.
Hope this is of use.

Does the immigration service have rights under section (29) to request
personal details of immigrant workers - I assume to identify illegal
immigrants ?
