§ Mr. WigleyTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will review the working of his community charge with regard to its application to women's aid refuges; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. David HuntGuidance on the registration of women in refuges has already been issued to community charge registration officers. If evidence can be provided that Welsh CCROs are generally designating women's refuges for the collective community charge, I will consider whether there is a case for further guidance to remind them of the appropriate criteria for designation.
