HC Deb 15 June 1993 vol 226 cc535-6W
Mr. Pawsey

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list those public utilities, organisations or companies which currently have direct access to council tax registers.

Mr. Baldry

None of these bodies has rights of access to information about the state of a council tax valuation list going beyond those available to all persons under section 28 of the Local Government Finance Act 1992.

Mr. Pawsey

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what plans he has to extend the scope of access to council tax registers; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Baldry

My right hon. Friend has no plans to extend access to information in council tax valuation lists.
