Part of Question Time — Scottish Executive — Health and Well-being – in the Scottish Parliament at 2:15 pm on 7 June 2007.
The central priority of the Government is to support Scotland's economic growth. We have made it clear that one of the ways in which we will do that is by removing or reducing the burden of business rates for small businesses, many of which are located in traditional town centres throughout Scotland. We will announce further measures in due course.
