Information Notice

ATIP Security Info Source
No.:  2002-15
DATE:   October 9, 2002
TO:   Access to Information and Privacy (ATIP) Coordinators
SUBJECT: List of Uses of the Social Insurance Number (SIN) 

On July 15, 2002, the Secretary of the Treasury Board, Mr. Jim Judd, wrote to all deputy ministers and heads of agencies, asking for a complete list of all uses of the Social Insurance Number (SIN) by each institution.

The Secretary requested that a response be provided to him no later than September 30, 2002.  I am aware that not all institutions involved the ATIP office in the collection of the list of SIN uses.  However, my office would appreciate your assistance in expediting your organization's response at this time.

If your institution has not yet responded to Mr. Judd's letter, please provide a response no later than October 16, 2002.  If your organization has already provided a response, there is no need to respond to this Information Notice or to call our office.

Any responses that are forthcoming should be mailed to the following address:

Mr. Jim Judd
Secretary of the Treasury Board and
Comptroller General of Canada
140 O'Connor Street
Ottawa, Ontario   K1A 0R5

Should you or your officials have any questions concerning the foregoing or require further information, please contact Terry Murray at (613) 941‑4462 or murray.terry@tbs-sct.gc.ca. or Charles Taillefer at (613) 957‑2562 or taillefer.charles@tbs-sct.gc.ca.
