Changing Liabilities

A key difference between Council Tax arrears and commercial debt is that Council Tax liabilities can change at any time and retrospectively back to 1993/94 if required.  The CARS system has been specifically designed to manage debts which can vary from day to day and to include safeguards that ensure recovery follow up is only taken where appropriate.

 

 
 

 

 

CARS - Arrears Recovery Improvements

Recovery Improvements

A co-ordinated programme of escalating recovery action, based on the total level of debt, with voluntary arrangements recorded and monitored, has resulted in significant increases in arrears recovery.  Recovery of over £1M arrears per year has been achieved.

Multiple Year Debts

As each year of Council Tax is billed separately, with Reminders and Final Notices normally  issued stating only the amount due for the year to which they relate, Debtors can often lose track of the level of debt which they owe.

Consolidated Arrears

The CARS system provides a consolidated view of the arrears for each Debtor.  The arrears can also be viewed by the recovery stage that each portion has reached.  This approach allows Debtors to be made aware of their total debt and allows arrangements to be negotiated for all arrears including payment of the current year.
