Mr. Nellist

To ask the Attorney-General if he will list the statutory provisions that govern the hours of working of bailiffs engaged in(a) debt recovery in general and (b) poll tax enforcement.

The Attorney-General

Order 7, rule 3 of the County Court Rules 1981 provides that county court bailiffs are not permitted to serve or execute process on Sunday, Good Friday or Christmas day without leave of the court.

There are no statutory provisions which govern the hours of working of bailiffs engaged in community charge enforcement.
