- This indicator represents the portion of the Band D council tax requirement that is attributable (where relevant) to the county council. Where the fire and rescue authority is within the administration of the county council the portion for fire and rescue services will be included here.

Council tax can be measured in 'Band D' or in 'per dwelling' terms. Band D has historically been used as the standard for comparing council tax levels between and across local authorities, as this measure is not affected by the varying distribution of properties in bands that can be found across authorities. This refers to the council tax payable on a Band D dwelling occupied as a main residence by two adults, before any reductions due to discounts, exemptions or council tax benefit. This definition is widely regarded as a benchmark when comparing council tax levels in different areas or over time.
