Bailiff laws set to change
The Ministry of Justice wants to introduce changes to the current bailiff laws. The proposals aim to clarify what bailiffs are legally entitled to do whilst banning the use of force.
Justice Minister Jonathan Djanogly outlined how the Government needed to respond to bad behaviour from aggressive and rogue bailiffs. He ridiculed some practices including “knocking on people's doors in the middle of the night, going to people's homes when there are only children in” but added that some people didn’t know “what to expect” from bailiffs.
The move has been well received by the bailiff industry. Jamie Waller, Chief Exec of bailiff company JBW group said: "This is not a knee jerk reaction, this has been very well thought through and it’s what the industry needs."
