Liberal Democrat — Wells and Mendip Hills

Speaking in the House of Commons on 30 October 2025

Debate

Business of the House

Contribution

My constituent John appealed his business rate demand 13 months ago as the rateable value on his office is incorrect. He tells me that the business rate appeal is taking between a year and 18 months. Will the Leader of the House ask the relevant Minister to improve the check and challenge system to support businesses through what can be a real barrier to survival, let alone the growth that the Government desire?
