    We are on benefits and we already pay half towards the council tax. We are dreading getting the revised one.

    No they are 2 separate issues.

    Everybody is expected to pay a part of the council tax from April 2013. Previously those on qualifying benefits/ low income were exempt.

    Many will need to find additional payments for any extra bedrooms (social housing and Housing association tenants) AND pay towards the council tax.
