English translation:desk-based audit
Explanation:
http://books.google.com/books?id=9OJ3Xxm1t4UC&pg=PA33&lpg=PA...

Een stoelcontrole is, zoals de naam al doet vermoeden, een controle uitgevoerd van achter het bureau van de belastingcontroleur. Aan de hand van de bij de Belastingdienst aanwezige gegevens zoals aangiften en jaarrekeningen, wordt bekeken of er aanleiding is tot het instellen van een onderzoek ter plaatse.

New ISA Audit procedures
Beginning in April 2009, we will be changing:

the way we select cases for audit
the way the audit is conducted
In future we will carry out a range of desk-based reviews. The reviews will either analyse annual ISA information returns and claims (see paragraph 1) or be a routine check of managers’ terms and conditions etc (see paragraph 2). If queries are answered to our satisfaction there will be no visit to managers’ premises to do the more usual audit checks. If, however, there are issues that need to be resolved, we may conduct an audit visit (see paragraph 3). The desk-based reviews will be done on a rolling program throughout the year. If an audit visit is needed, the timing will be agreed with the audit manager.

Reference information:
Stoelcontrole
Deze vorm van controle, waarbij op basis van risicoanalyse en risicoselectie een groep werkgevers met een (meestal geringe) loonsom administratief wordt getoetst, kan een aanvulling zijn op looncontrole.

2 Dit zijn fysieke controles volgens de definitie van de gegevensstandaard CDF. Controles waarbij sprake is van een zichtcontrole
of een combinatie van een zicht- of stoelcontrole worden hier geteld.

From these two references it would appear to be some kind of check/inspection on the premises in relation to persons claiming benefits.
Not really a risk analysis and assessment as Olly suggests. This would seem to be more of an inspection - a one-on-one translation is probably not possible. The term is used solely by the Belastingsdienst.

I would probably be inclined to translate it as a social security and tax inspection.

Note to reference poster
Asker: Dear Ms Hudson, I had already seen this reference but wondered if there is one-on-one translation. Thank you anyway.
