Long-term empty change?

Slumbershade

If the house that gets the long-term empty class is changed into an airbnb/short term rental then I think the owner is still liable for the council tax, but would it lose the long-term empty status?

Thanks.

But there is a logic and a very crafty one

Councils get more revenue and thus Central Government can reduce the amount of the grants they give to  councils. Also it encourages owners not to leave their properties empty and thus help relieve the housing crisis
