Dear S,
Re: FOI2025/01004
Thank you for your Freedom of Information request, this has been passed t o
Tunbridge Wells Borough Council, as you were previously a resident i n this
borough. Please note where you have referred t o Maidstone Borough Council, the
response has been provided with reference t o Tunbridge Wells Borough Council.
Please find below the response to your recent request. provided by our Corporate Governance Team.
Your request and our response:
The information has been
1 ) A copy o f the signed contract o f service between, the living woman", o f the
bloodline
agent of
"Perkins", (known erroneously to you as "XXXXXXXXXX") and an
"MAIDSTONE BOROUGH COUNCIL", DUNS 236342176, that contract signed i n
by both parties, or a n agent of both parties, and witnessed b y a third party, and
I n the UK, statutory liability for Council Tax attaches under the Local Government
Finance Act 1992. It therefore depends neither on a person's consent, nor o n the
existence of any contract with the Council. Consequently, any assertion that a person
i s required t o consent or t o enter into a contract with the Council to attract liability for
Council Tax has no legal basis, and is incorrect at law. A signature is not necessary for
the billing o f council tax. Neither i s a wet ink signature mandatory o n a court summons.
Previous case law has clarified that the use o f a rubber stamp or electronic signature
are both valid to the court signing a summons.
2) A copy of the duties and responsibilities that should have formed a part of that
contract,
wet ink signed and/or initialled b y both parties, o r a n agent of both parties,
witnessed by
a third party, and

Payment by Persons liable is enforced under the Council Tax (Administration and

U K Council Tax legality. Anyone drawing o n these a s a defence against Council Tax
liability based on contract, consent and/or common law o r otherwise, should seek
