For a thorough review of business rates and the planned massive increases

Petition Details

Business rates are increasing dramatically - in many cases by hundreds of percent over the next five years. This is having a highly detrimental impact on the High Street, on pubs, on private clubs, etc. We call for an urgent review of the system and an immediate reversal of planned increases.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We're not exactly sure what you want the Government or Parliament to do.

You could start a new petition asking the Government or Parliament to stop planned increases to business rates, if that's what you want to happen. You could start a new petition asking the Government and Parliament to reduce business rates, if that's what you want to happen. You could also start a new petition asking for a review of the impact of business rates on local high streets and communities, if that's what you want to happen.

If you want an interim “pub cap” and a full review of the business rate system, you may wish to sign this petition: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/202436
