I was a UK practicing Solicitor for nigh on 40 years before I retired in 2010. There was one certain precaution which I taught myself and which should always be taken before the villains are even given a whisper that legal steps are imminent ... namely an ex parte Garnishee Order. ( No notice to the offenders) With proper grounds these are easy to obtain. This freezes the money in the target bank account and only then do you prosecute them. This news report should have had the headline " CPS fails yet again to bring an effective prosecution " and Landlord Today team keep up this approach on all these stories. Since there is not a word about actualy recovering these massive fines I believe the whole exercise would have been yet another waste of taxpayers money. And the "authorities" must have been the CPS who no doubt are congratulating themsleves on their great suuccess. Sorry to criticise the reporters at Landlord Today but you should always ask about enforcing judgments of these types and find out what steps if any were taken to freeze the money ; clearly too late now! And below here in Related Articles I see another story which Landlord Today headlines with "Landlords hit with 27k Fine " will that money be recovered ? Was it recovered? Oh and there is another one "Five Figure civil penaltyserved on rogue landlord ; same issues again?

Of course the Government have long since forgotten the existing civil and criminal legal rights to be told Landlords address (with criminal sanctions!!) Section 48 Landlord & Tenant Act 1987 (civil) Section 1 of the Landlord & Tenant Act 1985 (criminal) But the more sinister undertow to this is the pervasive assumption that no one knows any law!! Sadly very true.
