Employees in Gældsstyrelsen has been in the archives to fix the ancient cases, as the EFI has left behind.
Gældsstyrelsen in 2019 work separately with a clean-up of 400.000 cases that have been lying idle among other things, as a result of problems with the it system EFI.
In the pile has the agency found to 75,000 cases have to be discarded, but also cases for 4.1 billion dollars, which must now be recovered.
It is not certain that the public gets all the money, since Gældsstyrelsen first now must determine whether the debtors have the ability to pay back.
According to the director of Gældsstyrelsen Lars Nordahl Lemvigh is the clean-up happened outside of the regular operation of the committee.
– It is specially. It is not normal that in a inddrivelsesmyndighed that you must do it here. But it is the situation, we ended up in with the EFI system, he says.
In the course of the work have Gældsstyrelsen encountered on ancient cases.
– It is owed, dating back to 30 years ago. And then there are some of them, where there is doubt about the correctness of gældsposterne, he says.
– Therefore, we have had the need to move them manually, so we are sure that we only recover the debt, that is correct and lawful.
– There is debt that is so old that we need to go back and look for information in the archives, he says.
In the scrapped cases hiding duplicates, obsolete cases and cases with incorrect calculations.
the clean-Up has resulted in 325.000 cases, where the agency is now in the process of ripping up the money in via the reminders and possibly later by dragging the debtors in public services.
The 325.000 records to a value of 4.1 billion dollars is only a small part of the total debt to the public. Latest estimate is for a total debt to the government 123 billion.
of Which counting Gældsstyrelsen with, it can get up to 29 billion crowns again.
Thus, form the clean-up of the 400,000 cases, or 3.3 percent of the total debt to the public. There is no estimate on how many of the 4.1 billion dollars that the public can expect to get again.
By the side of the clean-up operation is raining Lars Nordhahl Lemvigh with that Gældsstyrelsen end up scratching 8,5 billion dollars in the whole of 2019.
– In the year it goes better than last year. Last year inddrev we 7,1 billion. This year, I expect that we recover the 8.5 billion dollars, he says.
By the finance act of 2019, it appears that Gældsstyrelsen’ve got a budget of 755 million dollars. Thus the agency is a nettoplus at about 7,75 billion.
the agency is working 1450 employees. It means that each employee on average has scratched 5,86 million dollars to the public in 2019.
