A call for Pembrokeshire County Council to spread a little festive cheer by not issuing court summonses for non-payment of council tax is to be considered by senior councillors.
It was disclosed that since April 2024 PCC have issued 4,000 summonses for non-payment of council tax.
A Notice of Motion by Cllr Huw Murphy, heard at the December 12 meeting stated: “December is for many families a festive month and although the debt does not go away the avoidance of any prosecutions during the month of December in the lead up to the festive holiday will indicate some empathy by PCC towards its residents under most financial pressure.”
Members agreed the call be sent to the County Council’s Cabinet for further consideration.
