Commission on Local Tax Reform

General Election fever may be rife ... but important 'local government' events do carry on regardless!

And - thought I'd flag up that the 'Commission on Local Tax Reform' are now seeking evidence submissions: prior to deadline of Monday 22nd June ...

... some further detail as follows:


We're asking for your help...


We are an independent Commission that has been set up to look at ways of delivering a fairer system of local taxation in Scotland.  We want to begin our work by hearing your views about what happens now, and what the future might be.
 
Over the next few months we'll be using what you tell us to explore issues and develop ideas- so what you tell us now is very important.

THERE ARE TWO WAYS TO TELL US WHAT YOU THINK


You can take part in both, or choose the one that suits you best.  The important thing is that we hear from you by Monday 22 June.
 
RESPOND TO OUR CALL FOR WRITTEN EVIDENCE
Our Call for Written Evidence is the best way of sharing detailed information and suggestions with us. 

We’ve asked some questions, but if you'd prefer to send us other information, that's great too.

TAKE OUR SHORT ONLINE SURVEY
Even if you only have a few minutes to spare, you can still give us your views by using our quick online survey.

LET'S KEEP THE CONVERSATION GOING


This is only our first step in listening to you.  Any information that you give us now will help start the debate, but we also want this to be an ongoing conversation. 



There's more information about the Commission and its work on our website.  You can also stay in touch by signing up to our mailing list and by following us on Twitter.

We'll also be setting up different ways in which you can meet us or tell us what you think. You may know other people who have something to say too.  Please share our details with them so that they can have their say.
