Council Tax (New Valuation Lists for England) Bill

I do not want to stray too far, not because I do not want to answer the hon. Gentleman, but because I want to discuss amendment No. 3. On Second Reading of the Local Government Act 2003 the Opposition moved a reasoned amendment. I sat on the Committee which considered that Bill, as did the hon. Gentleman, I think. We had concerns about various aspects of that Bill—we agreed with some parts but not with others. At present we do not see the need for a revaluation. That is why we broadly support what the Government are doing.
