Response

  1. For properties where you are the local council, how many properties have an unclaimed “core” £150 on their council tax account?

    Unknown – Once the remittance has been added to the council taxpayers account, it is no different to any remittance placed on the account. Therefore we would be unable to identify if it was “unclaimed” from the account

  2. How many of the properties in “1)” had at least one individual in council tax exemption class N as at 1 April 2022?

    Unknown – see answer to question 1

  3. For properties where you are the local council, how many are recorded as a Home in Multiple Occupation (HMO) for planning purposes but not for council tax purposes?

    Unknown – We don’t mark properties as HIMO for council tax purposes so unable to do a comparison

  4. How many of these properties in question 3 have an unclaimed “core” £150 on their council tax account and had at least one individual in council tax exemption class N as at 1 April 2022?

    Unknown – see answer to question 1

  5. What decision(s) has the council made regarding distribution of these unclaimed “core” £150 payments to the eligible 1 April 2022 occupants?

    Where possible refunded, periodically we review the council tax credits and refund as necessary

Additional

We have 24 properties with an ongoing credit of 150 pounds where 21 are live and 1 has a current N exemption
