Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, if he will take steps to reduce council tax for people whose estate management and litter cleaning services reside with a management company rather than with the local council.

The information on planning applications that is collected and published by the department does not contain the level of detail required to answer this question.

Decisions on the level of council tax are for local councils who have powers to offer discretionary discounts where they consider that appropriate.
