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 response 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 “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 response to question 4
