What other way was there of doing it? Too many different scenarios to deal with simply.
You have to tie the "debt" to an individual or a property.

Not everyone. There will be a number over the 5 years that have not been responsible for a bill before. Someone leaving home and moving into billed accommodation and someone splitting from their partner are 2 examples where someone was not paying a bill so did not receive the £200 but will when they start paying a bill have to pay the £40
The simple way to deal with it is if you did not receive the £200 you do not pay back the £40. Seems incredibly simple to me
