Original Note:
The council tax freeze for 2024/25 is not “fully funded”. It is funded on the government’s terms. They have provided 5% extra funding to each council, on the assumption every council would raise council tax by 5%. Many councils were hoping to raise council tax even further. https://www.cosla.gov.uk/news/2024/144-million-will-not-fully-fund-a-council-tax-freeze,-say-cosla
