Jun 18 2009 by Chris Smith, Chester Chronicle
WEAVER Vale MP Mike Hall has welcomed plans for tighter regulation of bailiffs.
To safeguard the public from cowboy bailiffs, the Government is introducing:
An online certificated bailiff register allowing debtors to check bailiffs’ certification status.
An extension to the certification process to ensure all bailiffs provide a Criminal Records Bureau check with their application.
And minimum training requirements for inclusion in the certification process.
Mr Hall said: “Regulation of bailiffs is an important part of protecting householders in disputes over debts and fines.”
