The proposed system would include a number of specific procedural changes when compared to the existing scheme – firstly, that the Property Tax would be set at a national, rather than a local, level and secondly, that the owner/landlord of the property would be responsible for paying the Property Tax (Similar to the HMO system under Council Tax).
