The tables show the council tax requirements for each English unitary authority and county council in 2000–01 and 2003–04. These are not the same as the amounts actually collected. In any given year, the amount actually collected in-year is slightly lower than the council tax requirement. In addition, amounts of council tax are also received in respect of previous years.
