I've just received my revised council tax bill. Though claiming income support and previously receiving full council tax benefit, as part of the reform I will now have to pay £6 per month. I expect this will be a set amount for everyone on income support.
I've phoned the council this morning to confirm the change is rolling out nationwide this week and the new charge is not an error, but part of the reform.
Doesn't seem much does it,but when you are a lone parent support two under fives it makes a difference, however small.
