Stating facts on household charge

I am trying to find out how many local authority tenants registered for the household charge so they could be exempted from the charge?

I have good reason to believe these figures are being used as fact and added to the numbers that have ‘registered and paid’ when they have only just registered.

How many multiple properties under the one landlord are being counted as individual households when in fact they have only one owner? We all know how spin, confusion and misuse of facts are used to make a compelling argument.
