As suggested moving something raised on another post and asking about something raised.
Up to April I did not care if the house was in England or Wales I am only about 5 miles from boarder and although house owner will know who he pays council tax to I have never worried which side of the boarder.
However now there are different rules so Chester football club has to charge 5p for any plastic bags it issues as the club is in Wales even though the car park is in England. But it plays in English league.
OK they are not domestic so Part P is not a problem but the boarder is not well defined it followed the path of the old river before it was canalised and it is hard even for a local to work out where the boarder runs.
So when a scheme member does work does he have to fill in what principality or country the property is in? With England and Scotland it is a country boarder but England and Wales it's a principality boarder that's why Wales is not included on the Union Jack.
If we take the channel Islands, Isle of Man, Scotland and Wales away from whole of UK the England is in the minority. I think the whole idea of UK is flawed as we are no longer united. Maybe it should be called XUK? The commonwealth is similar but not looking at political things just how we can work on the boarders with the different rules.
I regularly shop in Ellesmere Port to get some free carrier bags but will always visit Welsh hospitals so no parking charges and would object most strongly to prescription charges.
I am sure even more conflict with Erie and Ulster with even vat being different yet I drove into and out of Erie without realising.
So if a scheme member does work in Wales and thinks he is in England does the scheme operator write to him pointing out his mistake?
