Although the Data Protection Act does not apply to deceased persons\u2019 personal data, rules of confidentiality continue to apply. DWP\u2019s policy is that if someone enquires about a deceased person only the date of death may be disclosed unless the written consent of the executor or administrator, or a close relative if of no executor or administrator exists, has been obtained.<\/p>
<\/p>
Section 123 of the Social Security Act 1992 makes it a criminal offence to disclose social security information (including information relating to deceased customers) without lawful authority.<\/p>
