A liability order gives us the legal powers to collect your Council Tax debt in a number of ways. We can use any of the following collection options:
- take deductions from your salary or wages (known as attachment of earnings)
- take deductions from your benefit
- pass your debt to a bailiff (also known as enforcement agents)
- secure the unpaid debt against property that you own (known as a charging order)
- start insolvency proceedings against you (known as bankruptcy or winding up)
- apply for an arrest warrant for prison (known as committal)
