Non-executives' personal data, including those relating to personal taxation or status, are protected by the UK General Data Protection Regulation. Personal data on non-domicile status is not routinely collected and is generally not required for making public appointments. If any such data was held by the department it could only be published if doing so was in compliance with data protection law.

Non-executive board members are not employees of the department and act in an advisory capacity.

Data relating to public appointments are covered by the Public Appointments Privacy Statement, which, which is available at: https://apply-for-public-appointment.service.gov.uk/privacy.
