HC Deb 05 February 1964 vol 688 c178W
Mr. Snow

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what factor is allowed in the Annual Price Review for changes in the rating of agricultural cottages; and whether he is aware that in the Lionfield and Tamworth Area rates for an identical cottage serving identical purposes have risen since 1957 by £10 10s. 4d. per annum.

Mr. Scott-Hopkins

Changes in rates are taken into account at Annual Review in respect of those farm cottages which are occupied by agricultural workers. My right hon. Friend is aware that rates on these, as on other properties, have increased since 1957.
