Pa ystyriaeth y mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi'i rhoi i greu cod ymarfer statudol ar gyfer swyddogion casglu dyledion y dreth gyngor, er mwyn sicrhau bod ymddygiad beilïaid o safon uchel?
All councils in Wales have committed to implementing the Council Tax Protocol for Wales. This is an important step in changing the culture of council tax enforcement. The Protocol sets out a good practice approach for local authorities and debt advice agencies to ensure any action they take is proportionate, fair and consistent.
The use of enforcement action should always be a last resort. In November 2023 all council leaders in Wales committed to only using accredited firms to collect local tax arrears, making Wales the first nation in the UK to adopt this approach. This provides individuals with certainty that enforcement agencies and their bailiffs will act in accordance with their commitments to the Enforcement Conduct Board and follow agency standards.
