    Also note that in Scotland and Northern Ireland there are no water charges, the utilities are publicly owned.

      That’s not quite true, water charges are part of your council tax. You get a discount if you have a septic tank because then dealing with the waste water is your responsibility.

      But you pay a flat rate based on your property’s estimated value in 1991.

        In Scotland perhaps. There’s no council tax in Northern Ireland either, instead they use the rates system. I’m not aware that there are any discounts for septic tank users.
