Enforcement: Regulation

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, if the Government will introduce legislation relating to the statutory regulation of the enforcement sector before the end of this Parliament.

Answer

The Government supports the work of the Enforcement Conduct Board to make sure anyone facing enforcement action is treated properly. Following our consultation about statutory independent regulation of the sector, we have worked on proposals to ensure fair treatment for people in debt.

The Government is committed to tackling rogue bailiffs and we will bring forward legislation soon as soon as parliamentary time allows.
