Cllr Brown, Board member for Customer and Corporate Services presented the report. She said it was best to retain the current scheme as evidence suggested that councils that had set a minimum charge had often seen a drop in council tax collection rates. 

 

Cllr Simmons said that the Finance Panel had reviewed the scheme and agreed with the recommendations.
