Uniform Business Rate

HC Deb 26 February 1992 vol 204 cc525-6W

Mr. Alex Carlile

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales (1) if he will introduce a scheme of relief against the uniform business rate in Wales for those whose businesses have had to close because of financial failure; and if he will make a statement;

(2) if he will make transitional relief against the uniform business rate available to new occupiers of existing shop and business premises in Wales; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. David Hunt

I have no plans to do so.
