Notes

  • Council tax is set each March for the year from April. Each council's figure is the average Band D bill in its area: its own council tax, the police and crime commissioner's precept and the average of its community councils' precepts. Wales's is the average over its 22 councils.
  • Bands in Wales rest on 2003 values. England's councils are on their own page, since its bands rest on 1991 values.
