<p /> <p>This Government takes recovery and enforcement of financial impositions very
seriously and remains committed to finding new ways to ensure impositions are paid
and to trace those who do not pay. This is why there has been a year on year increase
in the total amount of financial penalties collected over the last three years. The
amount of money collected reached an all time high of £290 million at the end of 2013/14
and collections continue to rise. In 2013/14 the total outstanding balance of financial
impositions reduced by £26.7m (5%) in the year.</p><p> </p><p>The table below shows
the value of financial impositions outstanding as at the end of March 2014; the first
column of figures represents the balance outstanding of the impositions made during
the 2013/14 financial year and the second shows the total value outstanding regardless
of imposition date. The ‘in year outstanding value’ is included within the total outstanding
value figure.</p><p> </p><p>The ‘value outstanding’ figures include accounts that
were not due to be paid by the end of the period specified (either because they were
imposed close to the end of the year or because they had payment timescales set by
the courts for beyond the end of the financial year) and those that were being paid
by instalments on agreed payment plans. These figures include fines, compensation
orders, victim surcharge orders and prosecution costs orders.</p><p> </p><table><thead><tr><td><p><strong>Area</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Value
