The Registrar may do so in 2 situations. The first is under section 87AA of the Act. That section enables the Registrar to request information about a defendant from the Chief Executive of the Ministry of Social Development. The information includes information about the amount and type of any benefit paid to the defendant, and the residential address and residential telephone number of the defendant. The second is under section 104A of the Act. Under that section, the Registrar may request the Commissioner of Inland Revenue to provide the name, address, and telephone number of the defendant's employer.
