Liberal Democrat — Glastonbury and Somerton

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 September 2024

Debate

High Streets Regeneration

Contribution

The outdated business rates system has left some market towns, such as Wincanton in my constituency, with empty premises on the high streets, damaging communities’ sense of pride and preventing councils from benefiting on the back of flourishing town centres. Will the Minister work with his Treasury colleagues to boost small businesses and regenerate high streets by reforming damaging business rates?
