Council Tax: Surcharges
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he plans to make changes to the level of the council tax surcharge.
Answered by Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government
The Government has set out plans to introduce the High Value Council Tax Surcharge, which will increase fairness within the system. The thresholds for the surcharge are set out here https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/high-value-council-tax-surcharge/high-value-council-tax-surcharge
The Government keeps all taxes under review. It would not be appropriate to speculate on any potential changes to tax policy.
