On the now locked thread I was asked this by Skeleton:
when you state a bailiff cant do this etc, point us in the direction of the law that says he can not
So for starters:
A debtor can remove right of implied access by displaying a notice at the entrance, Lambert v Roberts [1981] 72 Cr App R 223.
Placing such a notice is akin to a closed door but it also prevents a bailiff entering the garden or driveway, Knox v Anderton [1983] Crim LR 115 or R. v Leroy Roberts [2003] EWCA Crim 2753
A person having been told to leave is now under a duty to withdraw from the property with all due reasonable speed and failure to do so he is not thereafter acting in the execution of his duty and becomes a trespasser with any subsequent levy made being invalid and attracts a liability under a claim for damages, Morris v Beardmore [1980] 71 Cr App 256.

Thank you
I was asked the question then the thread was locked. If the answer's not wanted, why ask the question?
Not a single one of these cases deals with bailifs. They are either to do with being breathalised on private property or having offensive weapons on private property.

Good point.
So if a police officer can not be allowed to enter a premises after he suspects that a crime has been committed, do you think it stands that a bailiff collecting council tax with no powers whatsoever can?

Erm.... are you saying that if a person can remove the right to a police officer, then someone cannot also do so to a bailiff?
Please do not answer my question with a question.
Please quote the relevant part where the court states a debtor can remove the right of implied access.

Right of access to the police can be withdrawn in certain circumstances. However if the police have a warrant granted by a judge then access cannot ever be revoked. Likewise a bailiff can enter a property with a warrant. Access cannot be revoked in such cases.
A police officer and a Bailiff are not the same, they act under different authority. I would think a Bailiff has a court order or similar, a police officer may need to get a warrant first in some instances, but not all. You need to cite something on point showing a debtor has this right.

I would certainly say that a police warrant is somewhat different to a CT bailiff's warrant of control. One gives a right to enter by smashing down the door, the other.... well.... what do you think?

A bailiff collecting council tax does not have a court order.
The powers of a police officer are far, far greater than those of a bailiff collecting council tax.

Great.
So what about a bailiff collecting council tax then who has no warrant?
What gives him the power to enter when his implied right of access has been removed?

They would both need to get a warrant first surely?
In any case, the police have authority to enter without a warrant in some circumstances. But the argument is pertinent - it seems that it's being said that a bailiff has greater powers than the police. It seems that some are saying that because someone owes money and is branded a 'debtor' they forego the civil rights that others have. Just because someone is a 'debtor' does not mean a bailiff has an automatic right to enter their property.

The council obtain a 'liability order'. The power to enforce this lays with the council and they have several options to do so. One option is to use bailiffs.
