HC Deb 15 November 1972 vol 846 c143W
Mr. Skeet

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will review the operation of the law as it affects the rating of chemical plant with a view to introducing proposals for removing anomalies and inequities.

Mr. Graham Page

The Committee on the Rating of Plant and Machinery has considered the effects of rating certain kinds of plant and machinery on the relative rate burdens of various types of industrial hereditaments. Its report has been received and it is being studied in the light of the forthcoming legislation upon local government finance.
