Welcome to the trust deed forum bankiestillidie.
I think you'll need to pay this bill I'm afraid. A trust deed deals with the debts that you had at the time of signing rather than future liabilities. The amount on this bill didn't constitute arrears at the time of signing.
Best to wait for confirmation on this from one of the others though.

Yes, I'm afraid that this is correct - you are liable for the charge due for the period after the signing of the trust deed

thanks for the welcome tda, as regards your answer the bill for feb and mar 2011 is included in the amount of ctax arrears that my ip was given.dont see why i should have to pay it.the whole amount for 2010/11 was included in arrears that i had with scott and company.so tda feb and mar this year has been included by them in my total arrears.

I think you were being chased for it (the bit from the date you signed the trust deed) because the council was no longer accepting installments from you bankiestillidie.
However the amount you have received a bill for, from the date that you signed the trust deed, remains your responsibility to pay in the usual way I would think.
Your trust deed should have included provision for you to pay your council tax each month from the point of signing (in the income and expenditure analysis used to work out your monthly trust deed payment) so this doesn't seem unreasonable.
