Public Inquiry into Business Rates on Smaller Businesses

Petition Details

We want a Public Inquiry into business rates, including valuations for these, on smaller businesses across the country. The inquiry should consider any changes that might be needed support the wider public and the economy.

Additional Information

We believe action is needed to protect a larger number of small businesses, and the families, towns and cities that rely on these up and down the country. Many smaller businesses are struggling to survive due to many reasons, and one of them has been business rates. A Public Inquiry could look at possible changes to the system that could help businesses up and down the country, ultimately supporting local and wider economy.
