    Most Council rents are based on what they call a Differential Rent Scheme. They vary a bit from council to council but it's basically a percentage of your income with allowances for children etc.

    Here's info on Waterford City Council's scheme: Waterford City Council Rent Scheme 2011

    There's a lot of gobbledegook to read through but the scheme is fairly simple.
