Whether the Act is limited to distress for rent and that 'fit and proper' requires full conversance with distress law and procedure.
  • Bailiff certification — Law of Distress Amendment Act 1888 — scope limited to distress for rent; Distress for rates/taxes governed by separate statutes — 'fit and proper person' requires legal and procedural competence in distress law; procedural requirement: originate by notice of motion (Order VI r.1(3)); non-ratepayer may be required to give security
