Proceeding contribution from David Drew (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 27 June 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Bill [Lords].
Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Bill [Lords]
In Committee, we discussed how bailiffs work with business people and how they enter business premises. I raised the case of one of my constituents who runs a fish and chip shop and was threatened with the removal of his frying equipment—not that he could work out how that would be done, as the bailiff had only a car. None the less, the threat was a real one. Does the hon. Gentleman agree that we need to ensure that enforcement must be circumspect so that people are not prevented from carrying on their trade so that they can earn the money to pay their debts? Perhaps the Minister could refer to that issue when she sums up.
