- Martin Lewis announced that the government is launching a consultation into council tax payments, which will affect over three million people.
- The Money Saving Expert founder criticised the current council tax debt collection process as "so rapid and aggressive it would make banks blush".
- Mr Lewis said that forcing individuals to pay for a year when they cannot afford a month is "destroying lives".
- The consultation will consider slowing down the debt collection process to allow people more time to pay before further action is taken.
