Clause 3 - Code of practice about use of information powers
Social Security Fraud Bill [Lords]
10:15 am
Mr Peter Atkinson (Hexham, Conservative)
I seek from the Minister an illustration of how the bulk transfers of information would work. She referred to utility companies; does the DSS propose to hit whole cities and have a vast amount of information transferred on a regular basis? Is that something that could involve several utility companies providing power in a particular place, or does it work on individual addresses or streets, like a TV Licensing operation?
