What discussions has the Cabinet Secretary had with the UK Government on the single-person council tax discount?

Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Finance and Welsh Language | Answered on 25/09/2024

Council tax policy is devolved to the Welsh Government. The Local Government Finance (Wales) Act 2024 maintains the one liable adult discount (more commonly referred to as the single person discount). There are no plans to remove or reduce the discount.
