Growth and Infrastructure Bill

Proceeding contribution from Ben Gummer (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 November 2012. It occurred during Debate on bills on Growth and Infrastructure Bill.

My hon. Friend is making an interesting point. Is it not also true that since 2008 there have been rapid changes in the retail market? For instance, Tesco has reduced the size of its stores, there are larger warehouses and there has been a change in the rateable value of buildings across the scale. That has nothing to do with the recession and is an argument for a change to the way in which we value business properties, which is surely something for another term and another Parliament.
