§ Mr. WigleyTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will list the reservoirs in Wales which have a rateable value accorded to them together with the business rate or other rates paid on account of each. [7041]
§ Mr. HagueAt 1 April 1995 the following seven reservoirs were the subject of separate entries in the rating list. Other reservoirs in Wales form part of larger hereditaments in either the cental or local rating lists and, as a consequence, have no separate rateable values. The rate yield is calculated by multiplying the rateable value listed by the Welsh poundage for 1995–96 of 39p.
