SPD claimed in Lancaster City Council compared with other councils
The chart below allows you to compare the level of council tax single person discount (SPD) claimed at your council with other councils in the selected comparison group.
Lancaster City Council almost never issues council tax claim forms and is clear that the information it sends to central government in its statistical returns is information it 'assumes' to exist, on the basis that Regulation 14 allows it to do as it likes.
From my recollection of how to 'lie' with statistics, one effective way to do this is to surround them with misleading prose. This the NFI has down to a fine art.
