Speaking in the House of Lords on 18 March 2025

Debate

Non-Domestic Rating (Multipliers and Private Schools) Bill

Contribution

My proposal suggests that, within three months of the Bill becoming an Act, a committee must be formed that must respond with its recommendations within three more months. That committee would be made up of experts and professionals in their field: chartered surveyors, rating surveyors and others who have been practising in the field for a long time. I would be delighted if the VOA and the Treasury were represented too—I see no reason why not. We are trying to achieve fairness and a level playing field.
