Scotland, Wales and local precepts
The data catalogue lists the Scottish Government band workbooks and Welsh Government Band D tables, with file checksums and precision. The Burnley local schedule provides all published components and parish totals for 2026/27.
London Band D mayoral precepts use GLA decision MD3472, approved 26 February 2026, sections 2.2 and 2.3. The official decision page was verified on 5 October 2026; an original-file checksum is not available for that page.
The list of councils
The councils and their web addresses on this site come from the UK Places registry, so the sister sites use the same addresses. A link to a sister site is shown only where that site's own records name the council and the page is in that site's live sitemap; the check was refreshed on 5 October 2026.
