Council Tax exemption Fri 02-Apr-04 10:11 AM
Dear all,
I have been assisting a client who has a partner that may be exempt from Council Tax due to an enduring mental health issue. If this were the case would my client qualify for the 25 single person discount?

If a person is exempt for council tax then they are invisible for the purpose of a council tax assessment on the property and thus the appropriate discounts would apply, i.e the 25% discount in your client's case.
