The Assembly will be asked to approve the Business Rates estimate for 2013/14
The Assembly received a report supported by a presentation from the Divisional Director of Finance, setting out details of the changes in the collection of business rates from 2013/14, brought about by the Local Government Finance Act 2012.
Members noted that as a result of these changes, the Department for Communities and Local Government require local authorities to submit their business rates income forecasts by way of a return entitled the National Non-Domestic Rates Return 1 form and that the forecast be formally approved by the Council.
Following debate, the Assembly agreed the Council's business rates income forecast for 2013/14 as set out in the National Non-Domestic Rates Return 1 form in Appendix A to the report.
The meeting closed at 7.47 pm.
