Dear Mr Popovic
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT 2000 - INFORMATION REQUEST - REF NO –
CAS-659258-C3T9G4
I refer to your request for information originally submitted on 5 November
2018. Please accept my apologies for the significant delay in responding
to you, the request was sent to me on the 14 December to provide a
response to the following points.
o The list of agents (third parties) collecting Parking Fines for
Kingston upon Thames Borough Council for years
2013,2014,2015,2016,2017,2018
2013,2014,2015 and 2016 Kingston Council secured the services of Collect
Services to enforce unpaid parking fines. In 2017and 2018 Kingston council
retained the services of Collect Services and introduced 2 more companies,
TASK and Marston.
o The fee paid by the Council to each of these agents in years
2013,2014,2015,2016,2017,2018
Kingston council do not pay enforcement agencies. The debt is registered
and warrants are then transferred to them and they attempt to collect the
amounts owed and in doing this they are permitted to add fee’s onto the
original debt. This is how the Bailiff’s are recompensed for their
services. More information on Bailiff fees can be found by following this
link.

Dear Data Controller RBKOldham,
My request is under FOI Act 2000 and should be dealt with Royal Borough of Kingston Data Controller and DPU.
From ICO"The Freedom of Information Act 2000 provides public access to information held by public authorities. It does this in two ways: public authorities are obliged to publish certain information about their activities; and. members of the public are entitled to request information from public authorities"
Due to concealment of the information I require internal review
Yours sincerely,
Dragutin:Popovic
