Clause 10
Business Rate Supplements Bill
4:45 pm
John Healey (Minister of State (Local Government), Department for Communities and Local Government; Wentworth, Labour)
We are trying to provide for variations in the business rate supplement. If there was a ballot on the project in the first place, the position is straightforward. If a variation in the business rate supplement meant that the business rate supplement was bearing more than one third of the total project cost, that would bring the revised BRS into the bracket of requiring a ballot. Those are the circumstances that we have in mind.
