Business rates
The Government has announced in the Autumn Statement several changes for the new rating list. Visit the Gov.uk website for further information on the Autumn Statement 2022 (opens new window) . A summary is as follows:
- the business rates multiplier has been frozen at 49.9p for any property with a rateable value of less than £51,000, and 51.2p for properties with a rateable value of £51,000 or more
- increased relief from 50% up to 75% for retail, hospitality and leisure businesses (Up to £110,000)
- reformed transitional relief so any business that has a reduction in their rateable value will see this benefit immediately, without phasing
- generous support for small businesses that may see a reduction in their small business rates relief due to an increase in their rateable value
