Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what estimate he has made of the number of private rented households for whom local covid-19 restrictions prevent bailiffs from enforcing an eviction.
This question was answered on 2nd November 2020
The information requested is not held.
In higher risk areas and for the protection of public health, bailiffs have been instructed not to carry out evictions in tier 2 (high) and tier 3 (very high) local COVID-19 alert areas. The Government is keeping this approach under review.
