A London borough will continue to set one of the lowest council tax bills in the country while doubling its network of CCTV cameras in a bid to tackle the threat posted by phone snatchers and drug dealers.
Westminster plans to increase its share of bills by 4.99 per cent from April. When added to the increased demand from the Mayor of London, Sir Sadiq Khan, this will take its benchmark band D bills above £1,000 for the first time, to a total of £1,017.
