Proposed changes to council tax support

We are currently consulting on proposed changes to the council tax support scheme from 1 April 2027 for working-age residents only. We are reviewing the scheme to ensure it remains fair, easy to understand and reflects recent legal developments.

We want to hear from residents, organisations, and other interested parties before any changes are considered. The consultation is open until 3 November 2026.

To take part in the consultation, and have your say:

  • Read about the proposed changes
  • Complete the online consultation to share your views before the closing date of 3 November 2026.
