HALFWAY through the current financial year, we are hearing warnings of Council Tax increases next year.
WHY?
How much tax for the current and previous years remains unpaid? Tell us!
I would suggest that the Council introduce an incentive such as a hefty discount to pay the FULL amount within a month, with a lower discount for payment within three months and the question of direct debits could be considered. This is done in other local authorities where I have lived.
