Disabled Persons Reduction
You may qualify for a reduction in your Council Tax if there is a disabled person resident in the household and if the dwelling has certain features which are required to meet the needs of the disabled person.
The special features could be a special room, an additional bathroom or kitchen or sufficient space for the disabled person's wheelchair. The features must be necessary and of major importance to the wellbeing of the disabled person.
AN AMENDMENT TO THE REGULATIONS CAME INTO FORCE ON 1ST APRIL 2000. FROM THIS DATE YOU MAY QUALIFY FOR A REDUCTION IF A DISABLED PERSON IS RESIDENT IN A DWELLING INCLUDED IN VALUATION BAND A.
