Upon inspection of the Local Government Finance Act 1992 and various other legislation, I cannot find within any subsections any legal standing, obliging me to pay council tax, even if the council does deem me to be liable. I can only assume council tax is a request, however, I'm open to being corrected, after being shown by you, specifically what exactly obliges me to take liability. For clarity, I am not a corporation. Sometimes legislation can be misinterpreted. I want to know exactly what information is being used by this council to take the stance it does. Under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 provide the following;
1. Legislation(s) you can & may use, to create an obligation for any man/woman to pay
2. Subsequent sections you can & may use, to create an obligation for any man/woman to pay
