Peter Aldous: ...remain honeypots for setting up SMEs. That framework could include making it easier to set up banking hubs—at present, there is a very high bar to setting them up—and continuing the reform of business rates. We made a start in the Non-Domestic Rating Act 2023, which received Royal Assent last month, but it was only a timid move towards getting the business rates multiplier back down to...
Priti Patel: ...so may I give a message to those on the Treasury Front Bench? May I appeal to the Chancellor in particular to look at lowering the rates of personal and business taxation, particularly the areas of business rates, corporation tax and all aspects to do with enabling people to keep more of the money they earn?
Jeremy Hunt: I thank my hon. Friend for raising the support we give to small businesses. As he will know, supporting small businesses, particularly by rolling over the retail, hospitality and leisure business rates discount of 75%, was a major feature of the autumn statement. We will continue to keep under review anything that we can do to help our small businesses.

Baroness Penn: .... The furlough scheme protected 11.7 million jobs and livelihoods. Our loan support schemes provided lifelines to 1.6 million businesses, as well as cutting VAT for the worst affected, providing a business rates holiday for more than 750,000 businesses, and protecting our arts and cultural sectors through the nearly £2 billion culture recovery fund. We supported our public transport...
Jonathan Reynolds: ...ran out of steam some time ago. My hon. Friend the Member for Wakefield (Simon Lightwood) pointed out the need to address the real, practical things that are holding the country back. He mentioned business rates reform, and a commitment and desire to see greater community safety. That is what Labour has done, and that is why he is just one of many new Members of Parliament on the Labour...
Jacob Young: ...of life—can we make this happen. That is exactly what we are doing through the UK’s network of freeports, which offers a comprehensive package of measures, comprising tax reliefs, customs, business rates retention, planning, regeneration, innovation and trade and investment support. They also create opportunities in left-behind communities. I am thinking of my own constituency of...
Rebecca Evans: ...year period. We have taken a number of other steps, though, to try and support the sector where we can, so, for example, in trying to reduce the overhead costs, through the extension of 100 per cent business rates relief for registered childcare premises. The extension of the rates relief now is until March 2025, and that will save registered childcare providers in Wales £9.7 million in...
Vaughan Gething: ...more piecemeal than we'd like and is more short term than we'd like. We'll talk in detail about the shared prosperity fund and having annual spending deadlines tomorrow. On your third point around business rates, I see the finance Minister is looming over us in the virtual world, and I will decline your polite suggestion that I attempt to set parameters for the budget that has not yet been...

Lee Rowley: It is a pleasure to return this Bill to this place after its positive reception, both here initially and in the other place more recently. Reforming business rates was a manifesto commitment, and having concluded our review of rates, the Bill seeks to deliver a fairer and more effective business rates system. The amendments that the Government invite the House to support today are minor and...
Nicholas Fletcher: ...be the local authority. Local authorities already have the necessary infrastructure and resources. They have a list of all the empty buildings already. They maintain records for council tax and business rates for properties, including those that are exempt. They will accordingly have a list of all buildings and structures within their area of jurisdiction, within their boundaries. It is...
