During the meeting, Chairlady of the Bailiffs Chamber of Lithuania – bailiff Inga Karalienė – focused on the difference in the performance of the state-run and private enforcement systems: success ration of state-run Lithuanian enforcement officers used to be some 5%, while the existing bailiffs achieve now up to 30-40%.
