Tight bands that hurt - 2002 - Estates Gazette (0246) 16 November 2002, 190-191(2) .
Looks at possible solution to problem of one-size-fits-all approach to banding for council tax, which results in an unfair ratings burden. The answer could lie in a system based on localised property values. Issue of bunching up of values could be solved by increasing the number of bands. Also appeals system should be tightened up. Table.
