    Private and confidential data on individuals may be 
 exchanged among the department, the taxpayer's rights advocate,

 necessary to accomplish and effectuate the intent of sections 
 270A.01 to 270A.12, as provided by section 13.05, subdivision 4, 
 clause (b).  The department may disclose to the claimant agency 
 only the debtor's name, address, Social Security number and the 
 amount of the refund, and in the case of a joint return, the 
 name of the debtor's spouse.  Any person employed by, or 
 formerly employed by, a claimant agency who discloses any such 
 information for any other purpose, shall be subject to the civil 
 and criminal penalties of section 270B.18.  Data collected by 
 the department from claimant agencies relating to claims filed 
 under this chapter are private data on individuals.
