Where the Department is served with court orders, including Orders of Garnishee and orders for the appointment of receivers by way of equitable execution, the Department takes all necessary steps to comply with the specific terms of such orders.
The Department was served with a Conditional Order dated 6 March 2017 against a person with the same name and address as supplied with this question. The Order did not specify a herd number. A search of the Department's records indicated only one account with this name and address. The Department has since sought clarification from the Plaintiff's legal team and corrective action has been taken.
I can confirm that no payments have been directed to a bank in this case as no payments became due to the herdowner since the Conditional Order was received.
