The Tax Authorities will receive a fine of 3.7 million euros from the Dutch Data Protection Authority (AP), because the tax authorities have illegally processed personal data for years in a blacklist, the Fraud Signaling Facility (FSV). That money is deducted from the budget of the service and ends up in the general budget. “In essence, it is simply the government that pays a fine to itself,” a spokesperson for the AP told NU.nl.
