Hi, I have been following the conversations for some time and now have a query to ask. Could anyone provide me with more information on the authority requirements to be able to substantiate or legitimise the issuing of Notices requiring information to be provided under this section. Is it a mechanism that can be used by any organisation in their efforts to prevent fraud? Must the organisation have a statutory duty in relation to the items in Section 29 1 a,b,c? Is it relevant to use only by Police and agencies etc? I am aware supply any replies are not mandatory unless accompanied by a Court Order. I am researching the powers of a Benefits section of a local authority to obtain information. Any information would be welcome. Thanks Roger.
