HC Deb 26 January 1973 vol 849 c262W
Mr. Alec Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will list the local authorities in Wales where domestic ratepayers will face a heavier rate burden consequent upon revaluation.

Mr. Peter Thomas

The final and overall figures are not yet available, but on the basis of preliminary estimates for county boroughs only, and ignoring the effect of the very substantial additional rate support grant, the revaluation will result in more than marginally increased payments, on average, by domestic ratepayers in Merthyr Tydfil. Figures are not yet available for rating authorities other than county boroughs.
