Decision details

Given

-       That the Welsh Government has conducted a consultation on varying the Land Transaction Tax

-       That varying the tax would give the Council the opportunity to tackle effectively the rate at which second homes are purchased

-       That varying the tax would open the door for this Council to bring pressure to bear on the Government to give its fair share of the revenue derived from land tax

This Council calls on the Welsh Government to give Gwynedd a greater role in being able to decide on variations for the Land Transaction Tax.
