Council tax going up again

mercredi 20 décembre 2017

So the austerity years continue to unravel with the Communities Secretary announcing yesterday that all councils would be able to raise council tax by up to 2.99% next year to fund local services, which is 1% more than this year.

In addition, 152 councils, which includes all London boroughs and county councils, will be able to increase it by an additional 3% precept to fund social care services.

On top of this police and crime commissioners will be able to raise an additional precept of £12.

I think that probably accounts for all the £500 increase in the nil % tax band.
