answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/10/2017 answer text <p>HMCTS currently has a contract with a number of Approved Enforcement Agencies (AEAs) for the execution of criminal warrants and orders and this includes the warrants of control. The table below is the information recorded for the current contract which commenced in December 2009. This data is restricted to warrants of control relating to criminal cases only. These warrants are normally issued when all other sanctions have failed and AEAs are only paid on successful execution. All returned warrants are reviewed to consider alternative method of enforcement. The contract measure is for the number of warrants fully paid within 180 days of issue, shown in column three. Other payments will be made outside the 180 days but we do not have performance data on them.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td colspan="5"><p>Approved Enforcement Agency Contract -Warrants of Control</p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td rowspan="2"><p><strong>Issued</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Number Fully Paid</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Executed </strong></p></td><td rowspan="2"><p><strong>Total Cash received per annum</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td colspan="2"><p><strong>in 180 days</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2009/10</strong></p></td><td><p>553,726</p></td><td><p>92,906</p></td><td><p>18.67%</p></td><td><p>£21,436,700</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2010/11</strong></p></td><td><p>564,116</p></td><td><p>101,303</p></td><td><p>19.63%</p></td><td><p>£22,642,734</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2011/12</strong></p></td><td><p>652,427</p></td><td><p>138,036</p></td><td><p>23.59%</p></td><td><p>£30,480,254</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2012/13</strong></p></td><td><p>675,431</p></td><td><p>131,215</p></td><td><p>22.37%</p></td><td><p>£31,143,255</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2013/14</strong></p></td><td><p>647,642</p></td><td><p>125,020</p></td><td><p>23.10%</p></td><td><p>£38,893,841</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2014/15</strong></p></td><td><p>736,663</p></td><td><p>149,437</p></td><td><p>24.98%</p></td><td><p>£47,816,967</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2015/16</strong></p></td><td><p>598,224</p></td><td><p>127,578</p></td><td><p>26.26%</p></td><td><p>£44,207,156</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2016/17</strong></p></td><td><p>590,649</p></td><td><p>133,850</p></td><td><p>26.68%</p></td><td><p>£55,003,836</p></td></tr></tbody></table> answering member constituency Esher and Walton answering member printed Dominic Raab question first answered 18/10/2017 14:21:36 answering member 4007 label Biography information for Dominic Raab
