Proceeding contribution from Lord Bassam of Brighton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 7 February 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Council Tax (New Valuation Lists for England) Bill.


Council Tax (New Valuation Lists for England) Bill

The noble Lord should not be quite so hasty. I was going to say a word or two about that. We are committed to any revaluation in England being revenue-neutral. Obviously, decisions about the council tax level in Wales are for the Welsh Assembly and Welsh authorities to determine, but the principle behind any revaluation should be revenue-neutrality. The Bill stands alone and separate from considerations about Wales.
