Furthermore, we refute the notion that the Government’s action is making it harder for small businesses to take on staff. To the contrary, we are delivering long-overdue reforms to rebalance the business rates system and support the high street, which will see over 750,000 retail, hospitality and leisure properties benefit from permanently low tax rates. Moreover, we are going further than any previous Government, with the most significant package of legislative reforms in 25 years to tackle late payments, unlocking billions of pounds in finance to support businesses to invest and removing unnecessary red tape. We are also revitalising the high street as a place to do business and delivering growth-boosting support with the business growth service to unlock business potential.
