We blogged last year the case of Enid Bell, who was convicted for a second time of benefit fraud, this time to the tune of £600,000 overall. That was last June. Only now is there an order for their assets to be confiscated.
Complacent clunkiness in the legal process. When someone is guilty of benefit fraud, a confiscation order should be part of those proceedings. The presumption should be that confiscation will take place.
