Business Rates
The non-domestic rates, or business rates are collected by local
councils and are the means by which businesses and others who
occupy non-domestic property make a contribution to the costs of
local services.
The rates collected are pooled by central government and
redistributed to local councils according to the number of people
living in the area. This money, together with the revenue
from council taxpayers and grants provided by the government is
used to pay for the services provided by your local council and
other local authorities in your area.
You can find out more about business rates on the website
