Information to be passed on first contact

Hello ATC experts

After departure, when changing from tower to radar, on first contact, Call Sign, SID and passing level/altitude. Do we have to say what we are climbing to or can we omit this information as you should already know what the SID clearance is ? or do we have to say our altitude/flight level target every time ? My view is not, but want to clarify.

When changing from one radar sector to another, if we are climbing or descending, do we have to mention passing altitude/flight level. ? Again, my view is not, but want to clarify.

Any pointers and reference most welcome. Looked in CAP513 but could not find exact requirements regarding the above.
