Working checklist
Build the third-party detail review control
Remove fields that are not required for the confirmed purpose.
Keep the third-party detail review reproducible by recording where each selected detail came from.
Review each third-party field separately because consent to share one detail does not authorise the rest.
- Third party: identify the person whose details appear in the document and remove them when they do not help answer the applicant's request.
- Relationship: identify how the third party is connected to the record before deciding whether their details are necessary.
- Data field: name the third-party detail under review before deciding whether it is necessary for the property request.
- Purpose: keep a third party's detail only when it is necessary to understand the requested record.
- Consent: do not carry earlier permission into a different third-party detail review disclosure.

Useful context
Remove unnecessary third-party details before upload
Every guarantor, referee or household field needs a named purpose and appropriate authority before it enters the portal.
The relevant distinction is the third party detail review decision while completing the active portal field.
Practical example
Remove unnecessary third-party details before upload: worked example
A bank record includes a joint account holder's contact details that the field does not request. The renter leaves that material outside the upload and checks what the recipient actually needs.
