Council Launches Council Tax Support Scheme Consultation
Published on June 28, 2016 at 12:53 pm
Rossendale Borough Council has launched a 12 week consultation on its Council Tax Support Scheme for 2017/18.
The consultation comes after Central Government announced a number of welfare changes in its 2015 Summer Budget, some of which apply to the Housing Benefit Scheme.
Rossendale Borough Council’s Council Tax Support Scheme has remained unchanged since April 2013, except for the annual uprating of applicable amounts/premiums keeping it in line with the Housing Benefit Scheme and is formally ratified annually by Full Council.
