This document discusses South Cambridgeshire District Council's debt recovery strategy. It notes that government grants to councils are forecast to end by 2020, so the council must maintain high collection rates for council tax, business rates, and rents. The council has a dedicated team that processes bills and payments promptly and takes a robust but supportive approach to debt collection, including using bailiffs as a last resort. The council has been very successful in debt collection while providing assistance to those unable to pay.
