DLUHC has launched a consultation on draft regulations to implement the government’s Business Rates Improvement Relief Scheme.
Improvement Relief will support businesses wishing to invest in their property. It will ensure that no ratepayer will face higher business rate bills for 12 months as a result of qualifying improvements to a property they occupy. The Non-Domestic Rating Bill currently before Parliament contains powers to allow for the Improvement Relief Scheme.
This consultation seeks views on the draft regulations the government proposes to make under the powers in that Bill
The consultation will close at 11:59pm on 28 August 2023.
