I would love for an official view as to whether have the address of the lead person (some members collect addresses of all of the group) is actually contractually needed. After all you are not going to use it to say send an item/goods to them.Accommodation: keeping a register of your guests
Does this Act apply to me?
Yes: under the Immigration (Hotel Records) Order 1972, all serviced and self-catering accommodation premises must keep a record of all guests over the age of 16.
What do I need to record?
To comply with the Immigration (Hotel Records) Order 1972 you need to collect the following information from guests on their arrival:
full name
nationality
Note: you are not legally required to take a guest's home address or contact number. etc etc
So why are is anyone asking for more?
I personally like to control my personal data. That is why I do not like the idea of health passports, especially on a phone.
