Petition Action

Stop attachment of earnings

Petition Details

Councils need to stop going through courts to gain attachments of earnings to claim back council tax they are taking way too much of people's earnings leaving them in poverty.

Additional Information

It is current law and it needs changing by our law makers as it is a draconian way of doing things especially in the midst of a cost of living crisis.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

It is unclear if you would like attachment of earnings orders to be prevented in all cases, or only for council tax debts.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
