Received and noted a report from the Corporate Director of Customer Services of the value and type of debts written off from the Income, Collection, Rents and Benefits Service areas as uncollectible for quarter 3 of the 2008/09 financial year (October to December 2008).

Further noted that a number of these debts will be publicised in accordance with the policy agreed by Minute 69 2007/08.

Arising from the discussions, asked that support for businesses facing difficulties as a result of National Non Domestic Rate charge increases be reviewed as part  of the Council’s Recession Task Force remit.
