This legislation aims to help the DWP recover outstanding debts more efficiently while promoting fairness in the process. Under these new powers, the DWP will be able to directly recover money owed from an individual’s bank account. In the most severe cases, the department may also seek a court order to temporarily disqualify individuals from holding a driving licence.
