A few days ago, someone sent me an allegation that Brent Council has an extremely poor rate of Council Tax collection. I don't know how these rumours get started, but it is not true and worth correcting.
Certainly, the collection used to be far worse. In 2002/3, it was 89.5%. Since then it has risen every year, to 95.59% in 2010/11. This puts us at number 20 of the 33 London authorities.

Not that good a collection rate - Brent are much nearer the bottom than the top
Didn't the Standard say there were over £3 million arrears?
