Localising support for Council Tax
Consultation about councils setting up local schemes to provide support for people with paying Council Tax.
Detail
Localising support for Council Tax is part of a wider policy of decentralisation, giving councils increased financial autonomy and a greater stake in the economic future of their local area. This supports the government’s wider agenda to enable stronger, balanced economic growth across the country and complements the government’s proposals for other incentives, such as the New Homes Bonus.
