PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(29 August 2025)

Question Asked

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if she will make an assessment of the potential merits of removing Part 6 paragraph 6.2 of the Valuation Office Agency's Council Tax manual.

Asked by:
James MacCleary (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

The VOA do not provide estimated Council Tax bands on request because it would need to undertake a full band assessment of a property to provide an accurate estimate, and because it does not have a statutory obligation to do so.

As its policy on providing estimated Council Tax bands has not changed, and is accurately reflected in the Council Tax manual, it is not considering removing Part 6, paragraph 6.2
