| Comment | Councils have a lot of income streams beyond council tax - there's no way to identify what proportion of a specific council tax payment is "for" bin collection and if you were to do it proportionally, based on Cost of Bin Collection over Total Income to get a proportion, it would be tiny.
Technically absolutely none of it is "for" anything at all, it's just income for the Council. The income is not restricted (in the accounting sense). |
