Cllr Gavin Booth, of the Liberal Democrats, said: “When this came to the overview and scrutiny committee, we said this year wasn’t the right year to be changing it because it does hit those on the lowest incomes.
“From the [public consultation] feedback, you can see a lot of those people are working but on very low incomes.

Cllr Gavin Booth spoke against Fenland District Council s motion to increase Council Tax Support to 20 per cent.
