Subject: Re: NINOs the legislation
behind them?
All,
I am currently in
conversation (ha) with an external organisation about their insistence on
obtaining NINOs for individuals, for non benefit or tax purposes, in
fact just to identify the individual even though they then create a personal
identifier of their own.
Without going
into all the details of this issue - Can anyone tell me what the basis for
the restricted use of the NINO is?
I have assumed
there is a legislative restriction, ergo the need for the NINO borad, in
part set up to approve applications for use of the NINO for purposes other than
tax/benefit.
All I can gather
so far, is that those who know anything about DP and NINOs all believe that it
can't be used for other purposes unless approved by the
NINO board, because the NINO belongs to the DWP/HMRC but no one knows
where the restrictions come from, maybe the NINO is subject to copyright -
I don't know.
I know it's
Friday, but can you help??
Thanks
