## Description

The Revenues and Benefits Service main processing system operates from a Sun Server\. Capita, who provide and maintain the system, have confirmed that Sun Servers will not be supported from 2018\. This means that the Server needs to be replaced to a Linux based server before the end of 2017 to ensure that the Council Tax and Business Rates bills can be produced for 2018/19\. Capita will provide and install the new Server\. In addition, the Linux option will fit with the rest of Dorset should Local Government Reorganisation and/or Pan Dorset Revenues and Benefits Service occur\.
