§ Mr. Altonasked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will consider a rating revaluation on non-domestic property.
§ Mr. KingMy right hon. Friend hopes to bring forward legislation in the near 611W future that will contain an enabling power for the Secretary of State to commission a revaluation of non-domestic property if that seems desirable at some stage in the future. We do not, however, have any immediate plans for such a revaluation.
