answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/03/2018 answer text <p>The Government's position, as my Hon Friend Jake Berry set out in his answer to my Hon Friend's Questions UIN 119513 and 119514 of 18 December 2017, has consistently been that it is for those implementing any unitary proposal to put to the Secretary of State their proposals for council tax equalisation. Whilst it is for the Secretary of State to specify in secondary legislation the maximum period for equalisation, this Government to date has made no such specification nor reached any conclusion as to what that maximum it might specify.</p> answering member constituency Richmond (Yorks) answering member printed Rishi Sunak question first answered 27/03/2018 16:00:14 answering member 4483 label Biography information for Rishi Sunak
