Council Tax (New Valuation Lists for England) Bill

I can give a number of clues. First, council taxes are set locally by local government. Secondly, local government has an extremely ambitious agenda that it is delivering. Thirdly, the one thing that certainly would push up council tax is if local government funding were cut as the Conservative party proposed at the last election. That would certainly drive up council tax—by our calculations, by about 11 per cent.
