Resolves on the Bills and Laws page of the Scottish Parliament website. YES if a Bill titled Council Tax (Scotland) Bill is recorded there as introduced on or before 3 December 2026. A differently titled Bill counts only where the Scottish Government confirms on gov.scot it is the same Bill. If that source has not published in time, BBC News Scotland and the Guardian reporting the introduction settle it.
We found four plans since 1999 to change how council tax works. Each was a Scottish government's own plan or a review it had ordered. Each was about the bands, how much each band pays, or replacing the tax, and not about the size of bills. We asked whether a Bill or order to make the change was put before the Scottish Parliament within 18 months. Freezes and caps are left out because they keep the tax as it is.
