The Certification of Enforcement Agents Regulations 2014 outline the specific requirements for certifying enforcement agents who carry out enforcement activities involving the seizure of goods, following the procedures established in Schedule 12 of the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007 (TCEA 2007) and the Taking Control of Goods Regulations 2013.
These regulations set out the procedures for issuing certificates for enforcement agents. They outline the criteria for issuing such certificates, their duration, procedures for suspension or cancellation, and the process for lodging complaints against certified individuals deemed unfit to hold such certification. These regulations replace the provisions of the Distress for Rent Rules 1988.
