The employer who deducted rent money from wages but did not pass it on to the landlord.

A look at the work of high court enforcement officers. The sheriffs visit the employer who deducted rent money from one woman's pay but did not pass it on to the landlord.

This episode features a Lewisham resident whose employers were supposed to deduct money from her wages to go towards paying her rent. The money was deducted, but they didn't pass it all on to her landlord - so the employee and her family were threatened with eviction. The sheriffs pay her former employers a visit - will they get her cash? The sheriffs also go to the home of a businessman who failed to pay an employee her wages. They are told he has moved out - but is it the truth? And the Sheriffs revisit a garage which sold a customer's car but didn't give him the money. They remove property to settle the debt, but a piece of equipment worth £20,000 is missing.
