The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how many dwellings were liable for council tax in (a) England and (b) Wales in (i) 2009-10 and (ii) the most recent financial year for which figures are available.

Answered by Jim McMahon

Council tax is a devolved matter. You will appreciate therefore it would only be appropriate for me to comment on council tax data for England. Data on the number of dwelling liable for council tax in 2009 is available here. Data for 2024 is available here.
