We are now seeking to update this report for the benefit of all who have an interest in this subject and therefore we are now repeating our FOI Request some three years on .
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUEST
Small Business Rates Relief was brought in by the government with effect from 1st April 2005.
We are keen to inquire how far back (to what date) local businesses in your area are now able to still re-claim Small Business Rates Relief as of say 4th October 2023.
We will backdate SBRE to the 1.4.2012 the start of the current list
