How Band Rates Are Worked Out in Clackmannanshire

Like every billing authority, Clackmannanshire sets a single Band D rate each year. All other bands are then calculated as fixed fractions of that rate, set nationally by central government. Bands A to D are fixed ninths of Band D, but Scotland's 2017 reform (SSI 2016/368) set steeper ratios for bands E to H, so higher-band households pay proportionally more than in England or Wales:

Band	Fraction of Band D	Calculation	2026/27 rate
Band A	6/9	£1,683.67 x 6/9	£1,122.45
Band B	7/9	£1,683.67 x 7/9	£1,309.52
Band C	8/9	£1,683.67 x 8/9	£1,496.60
