This Government takes recovery and enforcement of financial impositions very seriously and remains committed to finding new ways to encourage payment of impositions and to trace those who do not pay. This is why there has been a year on year increase in the amount of financial penalties collected over the last three years.<\/p>

The table below shows the proportion of the value of financial impositions (made between April 2013 to March 2014) that had been collected, cancelled or remained outstanding as at 31st<\/sup> March 2014.

But this prohibition does not prevent the complainant\u2019s name from being used in court and therefore would not serve to conceal it from the defendant (if it was not already known to him). In exceptional circumstances a court may make a witness anonymity order under sections 86 to 90 of the Coroners and Justice Act 2009. Such an order prevents the disclosure of the identity of a witness (including the complainant) or any information that might allow the witness to be identified in or in connection with the proceedings except to the judge and jury or magistrates.<\/p>"}
