stop local authorities using bailiffs' to collect council tax as this just puts struggling families in further debt

Additional Information

Local authorities using civil enforcement agencies to collect unpaid council tax.As an example my daughter is in debt by £270 with council tax. My council Rutland council have sent civil enforcement agents in at an extra cost to her of £230 to her.Now how is she meant to pay the extra when she can't pay the original debt. Loan sharks spring to mind or maybe just barricade the doors. Just think its bad this government allow such cruelty by local authorities to take place on the most venerable. As for my daughter she has four children and does her best shame the same cant be said about our local councils.
