Yes - The Valuation Office Agency (VOA), as an executive agency of HMRC, is subject to the Commissioners for Revenue and Customs Act 2005 (CRCA) which covers: the confidentiality of information held by the VOA and when it is lawful to disclose that information.

The VOA is not permitted to disclose information except in certain limited circumstances, including, for the purposes of its functions, where there is a legislative gateway or with customer consent.

Sections 18 (2) and (3) of the Commissioners for Revenue and Customs Act (CRCA) 2005 allows sharing of data / information as long as it is reasonable and proportionate to do so.

The Billing Authority will treat all information supplied by the VOA as confidential even if the Information sharing agreement is terminated.

In line with CRCA Act 2005:

For example, the law allows us to disclose rental information when dealing with a rating challenge. The law also then allows an appellant to request additional rental information proportionate to the rental information we disclose.

45
Q

How would you deal with someone requestion to access their own personal information?

A

There is a deadline of one month to respond to a request. I would forward any request where a requester asks for their own information to the SAR inbox immediately by emailing.

if the request is part of an outstanding case, I would consider if it can be dealt with more appropriately as business as usual under CRCA.

This is known as a Subject Access Request.

A verbal request for property information cannot always be answered verbally. We may require verification of the person’s link to the property before deciding whether we can disclose information.

46
Q

How would you deal with a freedom of information request?

A

Check the request is made in writing (email/letter)
Check it includes the requester’s name and address and clearly describe the information wanted.
