Decision details

The Executive considered a report seeking approval to write off bad debts incurred through the non-payment of Council Tax and Non-Domestic Rates.

All the debts concerned had been subject to the Council’s relevant recovery processes and tracing enquiries had been undertaken.  The Council’s enforcement agents had been unable to recover the debts from any forwarding addresses obtained from the tracing process and consequently the debts were now considered irrecoverable.

RESOLVED that bad debts totalling £33,227.50 in respect of Council Tax and £78,681.11 in respect of Non-Domestic Rates be approved for write off.
