A 'cost of living' rebate that would benefit thousands of homes in Stockport has been proposed ahead of a key budget meeting this week.
The Liberal Democrats - the largest group on the council - have put forward plans for a £15 ‘payment to all households in council tax bands A-D.
Funded through reserves, it is broadly equivalent to the proposed increase in the ‘general’ element of council tax and would benefit more than 100,000 homes - or 82pc of those in the borough.
