The Coalition Agreement pledged to provide more protection against aggressive bailiffs and unreasonable charging orders. This document sets out guidance to local authorities on the enforcement of council tax arrears and aims to clearly set out the Government’s position. It replaces the previous ODPM Guidance, ODPM Council Tax Collection Good Practice, published in 2005. In particular this guidance deals with the kinds of help and support that Local Authorities should be giving to vulnerable people, both in the run up to enforcement activity taking place and afterwards. It should not be seen as an inexhaustible compendium of good practice, nor does it seek to define the circumstances in which people might be particularly vulnerable, as every situation is different. It draws from, highlights and should be seen alongside a range of existing good practice, including that set out in the original council tax codes of practice and the National Standards for Enforcement Agents.
