HC Deb 25 January 1990 vol 165 cc780-1W
Mr. Rowe

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will publish the rules by which valuation officers arrive at the rateable value of manufacturing, commercial and retail premises.

Mr. Chope

The principles of rating valuation, which govern assessments made by the valuation officer, are set out in schedule 6 to the Local Government Finance Act 1988, and are supplemented by a number of regulations and orders made under that schedule. Apart from these provisions, there are no rules for the assessment of any class of property.
