HC Deb 15 December 1993 vol 234 cc643-4W
Mr. Nicholas Brown

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer by how much he estimates the revenue from the uniform business rate will fall in real terms, following the announcement in November's Budget to maintain the 33 per cent. main rate and 25 per cent. lower rate of corporation tax.

Mr. Dorrell

There is no connection between the revenue from the uniform businesss rate and the rates set for corporation tax. Forecasts of cash revenues from the uniform business rate in 1993–94 and 1994–95 are set out in table 6.5 of the 1994–95 Financial Statement and Budget Report.
