Business Rates Help

Some help from the Government has been proffered to assist rate payers in dealing with the Retail Price Index increase in 2012/13 business rate bills, by deferring payment of this over 3 years.

The essence of the scheme is rate payers will be able to defer payment of 3.2% of the 2012/13 bill which equates to 60% of the RPI increase until 2013/14 and 2014/15 by which time the total amount deferred will have been paid.

To apply for this scheme you will need to contact your Local Authority to request a form which needs to be completed and returned by 31 March 2013 provided some of your bill remains outstanding. However, it is preferable for you to apply early so that the reduction on the monthly instalments made can be seen sooner but you can still defer the whole of the bill regardless of when you apply.

In addition the Government has also temporarily doubled the rate of Small Business Rates Relief but there are parameters attached to this and please note you will need to apply for this relief, again by contacting your local authority business rates department:

• If you occupy one property with a rateable value below £6,000 you will pay no rates at all for 2012/13.
• If you occupy one property with a rateable value below £12,000 there will be relief available but on a depreciating scale.

The Government has also continued the Small Business Rate multiplier for those people who have rateable values below £18,000 (£25,000 in London). You will need to check your rates bill to ensure you are receiving this correctly. It should be 45p in the £ and not 45.8p in the £.

For further information contact your Local Authority.
