Vol. 385 No. 2

Written Answers. - Local Authority Service Charge.

162.

asked the Minister for the Environment the rate of service charge for water, sewerage, refuse and other services levied by each local authority for the current financial year; the amount of money outstanding in each local authority for service charges at the latest date for which figures are available; and the total amount of service charges billed by each local authority for 1988.

Details regarding the rate of domestic service charge for water, refuse and sewerage services levied by each local authority for the current year are contained in my reply to Question No. 204 of 27 January 1988. In so far as it is available the information requested by the Deputy in respect of arrears and the amounts billed by each local authority in respect of domestic service charges for 1988 is set out in the following tabular statements. The arrears figures carried into 1988 and the current charges are gross figures in that they do not take into account any subsequent deductions arising from waivers, discount schemes, etc.

Following are the statements:
