Indeed

But you would agree it's a mad system that says you have to collect info, send it into a government department, and destroy what you've sent.

That goes against all logic. Meanwhile I await the data protection commissioner prosecuting me.

It also goes against the legal obligation to retain for 7 years, evidence to support claims for reliefs and deductions made in Income Tax returns.

I think I've found the answer - new primary online database.
Apparently it's on dept of education website - will take a look now.

Some of us on here have been screaming for years that the PPS number is sacrosanct and should be used for every transaction with the public service. Now that it is here there are those who do not want to have the PPS number used. We cannot have it both ways. It is a vital necessity so those who object, please get over it. The PPS number is for the benefit of this country and its people.

Just seen this excellent article on another thread. I live and work in the UK, pay similiar taxes, counil charges, water rates etc etc etc and I have never been asked for my NI number.
