Bailiff fees unpaid by debtor for council tax recovery
Neil Gilliatt made this Freedom of Information request to Kent County Council
Kent County Council did not have the information requested.
From: Neil Gilliatt
3 May 2011
Dear Kent County Council,
In cases allocated to bailiffs for collection of council tax; do
Kent County Council pay the bailiff their fees for work carried out
by them when the debtor does not because of direct settlement of
the account with the authority?
If compensation to bailiffs is paid by the council due to debtors
not paying bailiffs their fees; what are the annual figures for the
years 2002 to date with respect to this payment?
Yours faithfully,
Neil Gilliatt
Kent County Council

Dear Mr. Gilliatt,
Thank you for your request for information regarding the role of bailiffs
in the collection of council tax.
I am afraid that Kent County Council does not hold this information. In
Kent, the 12 district councils and Medway Council, a unitary authority,
are responsible for the administration and collection of council tax , so
you will need to contact them directly.
Please see the following links for information about Council services in
Kent and a list of District Councils.
