Cut Council Tax for low income residents
Camden Council also considering cutting council tax back to zero for the borough's poorest people.
Since
2013, the council has removed the previous 100% exemption for people
receiving benefits - including disabled people and families with low
incomes. It now charges everyone at least 8.5% of the full rate,
something it's very hard to pay when you have no way of making the extra
money required.
I've argued for several years that this isn't fair, and the council has agreed to consult on the option of going back to 100% relief. This consultation is even more simple to complete. Just choose 'option 2' in the online survey here:
