Hammersmith and Fulham Council Tax Shortfall

Tax Dodging in the borough of Ealing in the last financial year amounted to more than six million pounds, reports the Ealing Gazette.

The total was just shy of the £6.2m which the borough's former Conservative administration gave back to tax payers in the form of a £50 rebate in the run up to Christmas last year.

According to statistics released by the GMB workers' union, uncollected Council tax between April 2009/10 stood at £4.1million while non-domestic rates for the same period totalled £1.95million.

Among the 33 London boroughs, Ealing ranked 21st with £6.058million owed by households and businesses while the neighbouring boroughs of Hammersmith & Fulham came third with £12.189m, Hillingdon eighth with £7.859m and Brent in 12th position with £7.094m owed.
