Local Government Act 1888
Paul of the Woods Family made this Freedom of Information request to Knowsley Metropolitan Borough Council This request has been closed to new correspondence. Contact us if you think it should be reopened.
Dear Knowsley Metropolitan Borough Council,
In the Local Government Act 1888 it specifically states the following.
Section 79 - Incorporation of county council.
(2) All duties and liabilities of the inhabitants of a county shall become and be duties and liabilities of the council of such county.
Can you confirm that you operate under the Local Government Act 1888 as required by law.
Since you are therefore liable for the inhabitants liabilities, does this not mean that you are also liable for the inhabitants council tax. Not withstanding other liabilities which inhabitants of said council possess
Yours faithfully,
Paul Woods
