Guide to the council budget decision

Guide to the council budget decision What is the budget? By 11 March each year, each Council must set an amount of council tax. Behind this, are a set of calculations laid down in legislation which boil down to the amount by which expenditure exceeds income in accordance with the required calculations and which then forms, in England, the authority’s ‘council tax requirement’ (whereas in Wales, it is still referred to as the ‘budget requirement’). For further information on council tax, see Practice Note: Council tax. Income will come from: • government grants (both general and ring-fenced) • business rates (national non-domestic rates (NNDR)), see Practice Note: National non-domestic rates—billing recovery, exemptions and reliefs • investments, and • fees or charges that the law may permit the Council to operate The Council may also make use of financial reserves it has for this purpose. Council tax itself is subject to certain strictures, not least of which is the capping regime, which then limits the amount of income that can be...

Standard contractual clauses and binding corporate rules—EU methodology—flowchart

Standard contractual clauses and binding corporate rules—EU methodology—flowchart This Flowchart reflects the methodology set out by the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) for determining whether you can make an international transfer of personal data on the basis of standard contractual clauses (SCCs) or binding corporate rules (BCRs). You can only rely on these transfer mechanisms where the protections, enforceable rights and legal remedies provided to individuals in the recipient country are essentially equivalent to those guaranteed under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The ‘essentially equivalent’ test was laid down in the case of Facebook Ireland and Schrems (Schrems II), which was decided under the EU GDPR. The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has published Guidance on transfer risk assessments, which adopts the term ‘sufficiently similar’ in relation to transfers under the UK GDPR and uses a different methodology. The ICO is happy for organisations exporting data from the UK to follow either methodology. This Flowchart reflects the EU methodology, as set out in: • EDPB Guidelines on...

Can an insurer refuse to provide internal correspondence and case notes relating to an insurance claim where a subject access request (SAR) is made under the UK GDPR for such information?

Can an insurer refuse to provide internal correspondence and case notes relating to an insurance claim where a subject access request (SAR) is made under the UK GDPR for such information? This Q&A assumes that the organisation that has received the SAR is a ‘controller’ of the relevant data. For an introduction to the United Kingdom General Data Protection Regulation, Retained Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (UK GDPR) regime, including key data protection terms and concepts, such as ‘personal data’, 'processing', 'data subject' and ‘controller’, see: Data protection toolkit. As further explained in Practice Notes: The UK GDPR and DPA 2018 for insurers and Data subject rights—access, Article 15 of the UK GDPR gives individuals a right to obtain confirmation from a data controller as to whether or not personal data concerning them is being processed, and where it is, access to the personal data and certain further information. A request for such information is commonly known as a ‘subject access request’ (or a 'SAR' or 'DSAR'). In order to assist...

What are the implications for an insured who participates in clinical trials but fails to notify his insurers of any existing health conditions or potential changes to his health which he discovers as a result?

What are the implications for an insured who participates in clinical trials but fails to notify his insurers of any existing health conditions or potential changes to his health which he discovers as a result? The following questions potentially arise: • has there been an increase in risk which the insured is obliged to disclose during the currency of the policy? • must the information be disclosed at renewal? • does it attract the operation of an exclusion for pre-existing conditions? • has there been any non-disclosure or misrepresentation? The insured’s state of health may be relevant to a wide variety of insurance policies, including long-term policies (eg life assurance, income protection or critical illness) and short-term policies (eg private medical, accident, or travel insurance). Some policies may be fully underwritten at the outset by means of a detailed proposal form. Others may only require minimal disclosure at inception but exclude cover for pre-existing medical conditions and/or require notification of changes in the insured’s health. It is therefore...
