A file access notice must be approved by the tribunal. An application to the tribunal for approval to issue a notice must be made by
- an authorised officer
or
- a specialist officer within the Agent Compliance Team (ACT) with the agreement of an authorised officer.
For applications to the tribunal for their approval to give file access notices the authorised officer will be an officer at Grade 6 within FIS, outside the caseworker바카라 사이트™s management chain.
Self authorisation is not permitted. If you are a specialist officer in ACT and an authorised officer, you cannot make the application to the tribunal in one of your own cases. You will need another authorised officer to either make the application to the tribunal or agree that you can make it.
The caseworker must get an authorised officer바카라 사이트™s agreement in writing.
