Non-harrassment law
won't bother Terrace

The manager of a local credit
bureau says the new Law
Reform Commission Report
recommending the non-
harrassment of debtors will not
affect Credit Bureaus whose
primary function is credit
reporting and investigation.

“We have guidelines for
policing our own business and if
any member steps outside these
limits regarding unnecessary
harrassment of debtors, he is
automatically questioned by
our quality control committee
and the offending bureau would
have tosatisfactroily explain its
actions and rectify the offence
immediately,’ said Mr.

Richard Gulash, manager of the
Terrace Credit Bureau.

“The main proposal of the
Commission is the enactment of
legislation which would make
unreasonable harrassment of.
debtors or their families a
summary, conviction offence.
Also included is a number of
detailed recommendations for
amendments to the Collection
Agents Act concerning
licencing and supervision of
collection agents and bailiffs,"
said the Attorney-General of the
fourth formal report made by
the Law Reform Commission
within a year.
The Report states, "It cannot

Richard.Blanshard (1849-1851)
and Sir James Douglas (1851-

be tolerated that just claims be
pursued by unjust methods.”

Under the Commission's
proposals, the only permissible
contact with an employer, will
be for, the purposes of verifyin
the fact of employment.

common, the new proposal will
legally prohibit any collector
from making private deals with
employers for collection of
monies owed by employees.

The Commission further
recommends a prohibition on
contacting any other person not
having a legitimate interest in
receiving the information,
unless the debtor gives his
consent. This is designed to
exlude contacting the parents. ef
an adult debtor, or his minor
children, as well as
coramunicating with friends,
neighbours and distant family
members.

This recommendation will not
prohibit the contacting of the
wife or husband of the debtor,
because as Mr. Gulash points.
out, ‘Usually a debt is incurred
today with the knowledge and
quite often co-signature of the
spouse.”
The Commission
recommends that telephone
calls for debt collection
purposes be limited to the hours
of 7 a.m. and 9 p.m. weekdays
only.
Another recommendation is
that legislation be enacted
providing more stringent
controls over ‘the activities of
debt poolers, these are
commonly known aS
distribution agents, for
payments by persons with a
multiplicity of debts. The
Commission recommends a law
specifying the contents of
agreements between debtors
and poolers and imposing limits
upon interest charges that may
be made by poolers.
Lastly legislation is proposed
which would have the effect of
stopping the so-called sham or
“front” Collection Agent which
is simply the creditor in
disguise.

Columbia in 1858, Vancouver
