Local authorities provide information and advice about motor tax such as how to tax a vehicle, motor tax rates, fees, change of ownership and exemptions.
You can apply to the local authority for a motor tax refund if your taxed vehicle is scrapped, destroyed or stolen or is no longer being used on a public road.
Local authorities coordinate the roll out of the Government's National Broadband Plan by working with telecommunications companies to deliver broadband services and encourage the take up of high speed connectivity.
Local authorities may set special speed limits near built-up areas, schools and housing estates to improve road safety for all road users. You can have an input into the proposed speed limits through consultation.
