Bailiffs

Joseph made this Official Information request to Ministry of Justice

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Joseph to read recent responses and update the status.

From: Joseph

Dear Ministry of Justice,

Bailiffs:

1. Are they permitted to carry weapons (since they have the powers of a constable)?
2. How do bailiffs in practice, arrest people?
3. Can bailiffs pull vehicles over?
4. Do bailiffs carry handcuffs?
5. What is the procedure when a person is arrested?

Yours faithfully,

Mark Hunt

Dear [email address],
Hi there,

Thank you for the detailed information; unfortunately it doesn't really answer the question in it's entirety.

How do bailiffs actually physically arrest people if they do not carry handcuffs. I would presume that people would sometimes resent being taken to court voluntarily and would not go without a fight? What are the procedures here?

Yours sincerely,

Mark
