Speaking in the House of Lords on 10 February 2026
Debate
Local Government Finance Act 1988 (Prescription of Non-Domestic Rating Multipliers) (England) Regulations 2026Contribution
The noble Lord, Lord Parkinson, mentioned the offer of a meeting made at Question Time not that long ago to broaden the discussion on the VOA assumptions that he, I and that noble Lord, Lord Freyberg, talked about. There is certainly the basis for further discussion there if the Minister wills it. The noble Lord, Lord Freyberg, talked about artists’ studios and the structural fragility there, which is comparable in many ways to the recording studios, but they are caught, in a sense, by a different catch in the system.
