What checks are carried out on outstanding balances? One of the Sunday newspapers produces a list of judgments every week and those who buy that newspaper can see them. The Collector General is often listed as the person obtaining the judgment. I have seen the names and addresses of companies in the midlands - I am not talking about my county - against which the Revenue Commissioners had secured judgments, but the companies never existed at the addresses. Is this the type of missing trader we are discussing?
