Original Note:
The East Lothian council leader is quoted in the linked article as saying “the funding gap we are now facing next year alone is equivalent to a 32% council tax increase”. The figure is a measure of the funding gap faced by the council, not a proposal for a council tax increase. https://www.edinburghlive.co.uk/news/edinburgh-news/east-lothian-council-leader-asks-28054950
