To ask Her Majesty’s Government what steps they are taking to support local government in the light of their planned extension of business rate relief.
Baroness Williams of Trafford
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government
These tax cuts provide significant support to local businesses. The Small Business Rate Relief measure announced at the Budget will mean 600,000 of the smallest businesses will not have to pay business rates.
Local authorities will be compensated in full for their loss of income as a result of these changes.
