COUNCIL TAX, WALES

These Regulations amend the Council Tax Reduction Schemes and Prescribed Requirements (Wales) Regulations 2012 (“the prescribed requirements Regulations”) and the Council Tax Reduction Schemes (Default Scheme) (Wales) Regulations 2012 (“the default scheme Regulations”) made under section 13A(4) of, and Schedule 1B to, the Local Government Finance Act 1992. The prescribed requirements Regulations require each billing authority in Wales to make a scheme specifying the reductions which are to apply to amounts of council tax payable by persons, or classes of persons, whom the authority considers are in financial need. The prescribed requirements Regulations also set out matters that should be included within such a scheme. The default scheme Regulations set out a scheme which will take effect, in respect of dwellings situated in the area of a billing authority, if the authority fails to make its own scheme on or before 31 January 2013.
