Bailiff indemnities
Dear Doncaster Borough Council,
Dear Luton Borough Council,
Dear Worcester City Council,
Under foia
does your enforcement agent contract allow your enforcement agents
to issue a indemnity against prosecution for themselves without the agreement of the council in cases where they have wrongfully seized and to vulnerable people
Have you ever allowed bailiffs to make their own settlement agreements where goods have to be returned?
Would you allow enforcement agents to breach the equalities act if it meant your business rates were collected .
How would you react if they did this without you knowing?
this is not a complaint btw its for research into bailiff law
Yours faithfully,

Dear Freedom of Information Requests,
hello.you seem to have missed answering this request

Dear Freedom of Information Requests,
for clarity.hopefully your rates team can answer these questions like the other 30 councils have with a yes or no answer
1. Does your enforcement agent contract allow your enforcement agents to issue an
indemnity against prosecution for themselves without the agreement of the council in
cases where they have wrongfully seized when the customer is identifiably vulnerable?
2. Have you ever allowed bailiffs to make their own settlement agreements where goods
have to be returned after 3 months?
3. Would you allow enforcement agents to breach the equalities act by achieving a gain whilst someone is under mental health treatment if it meant your
business rates were collected,even if they didnt inform you?
4. How would you react if they did this without you knowing?
5. Would you class a secret indemnity kept from the council which achieves a gain at the cost to the
vulnerable victim a material breach of contract .?
6. Must enforcement agents always report failed levies and a full report when dealing
with vulnerable customers
7.would you employ enforcement agents that have fraudulently concealed information that could cause litigation to the council or serious damage to a protected party in the past ?
thank you for your public concern in answering these questions asap.
8.who are your current agents
Yours faithfully,
