The New Local Council Tax Rebate Scheme and will these changes impact me?
From 01/04/2024, help with your Council Tax will be awarded as a discount on your Council Tax bill.
This will be called Council Tax Rebate Scheme and will only apply to residents who are Working age, or receiving a Working Age benefit (i.e. Universal Credit)
The level of discount you are eligible for will depend on your household, income and savings.
If you are Pension Age and not receiving a Working Age Benefit, you will continue to be assessed under the Governments prescribed regulations and these changes will not impact you.
