Council Tax Support Scheme Consultation
We are asking for your views on our proposed Council Tax Support Scheme (CTS) for 2025/26
Council Tax Support provides essential financial assistance to people on low incomes, helping them manage their Council Tax bills.
Every year, the Council reviews the scheme for working-age applicants in the area to determine if any changes are necessary.
Following an extensive review, we are proposing modifications to the scheme for 2025/26, rather than major changes. These improvements will make the scheme:
- More generous, offering enhanced protection for vulnerable families.
- More efficient, streamlining processes to reduce administrative costs.
We would welcome your views as part of this consultation. You can complete this consultation by clicking on the following link:
