Written Question
Debt Collection
Wednesday 14th September 2016

Asked by: Kwasi Kwarteng (Conservative - Spelthorne)

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what restrictions the Government has put in place to prevent threatening and intimidating behaviour on the part of bailiffs.

Answered by Oliver Heald

The Government is clear that aggressive enforcement action is not acceptable. In April 2014 reforms were introduced to protect people from threatening and intimidating behaviour by enforcement agents. The reforms introduced, amongst other things, safeguards to prevent the use of force against debtors, mandatory training and a certification process for enforcement agents to ensure that they are the right people for the job.
