Details

According to the Local Government Finance Act 1992, each billing authority must determine whether its basic amount of Council Tax for a financial year is excessive in accordance with a set of principles determined by the Secretary of State.

If an authority’s relevant basic amount of Council Tax is excessive a referendum must be held in relation to that amount.
