Proceeding contribution from Lord Myners (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 21 April 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Saving Gateway Accounts Bill.

Saving Gateway Accounts Bill

Once the information is held by HMRC in relation to its functions, it is possible for it to be transferred to another government department, but only if there is a special legal power allowing such a transfer. Each case would have to depend on its facts. There are no plans for any of this to be done regularly. If the noble Baroness feels that a more detailed response to that question would be helpful, I will commit to ensure that it is provided in writing to her and others who have participated in this debate.
