Reform Council Tax For England to Reflect Occupancy and not Property Value

The current council tax system charges higher valued properties more, despite what can be equal service usage. We think this is unfair, and we propose a model where council tax is aligned with the number of occupants. We believe this change would better reflect actual service use, promote fairness, and alleviate the financial burden on smaller households occupying larger homes. We urge the Government to consider occupancy-based council tax, which we think will ensure a just system for all.
