§ Sir Richard Glynasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether the installations and premises occupied by the Royal Navy, the Army, and the 98W Royal Air Force in Dorset have now been revalued for rating purposes; and what contribution to Dorset rates will be made by these and other Crown properties during the current year, and in future years at the present level of rate poundage.
§ Mr. GreenYes, and during the current rating year contributions in lieu of rates totalling nearly £302,000 are being made to the rating authorities concerned. Alterations to contributions made in future years will depend on changes in occupations and the rate poundages levied by the rating authorities in the county.
