Outstanding Balance.

There are those that would say a collection rate of 94% is pretty respectable. But Mr Smith would suggest not, when the 6% that was uncollected equated to £112 million.

"Nearly £112m of council tax went uncollected last year, figures revealed. Bills totalling £1,940,354 were sent out and £1,828,516 was received, a collection rate of 94.2%."
