Growth and Infrastructure Bill

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

I share the Secretary of State’s desire to try to use this mechanism to boost our high streets. However, I get a bit lost by his argument, because many small shops in a town centre such as Denton had their business rates set on the basis of their rents before the recession and would benefit from a revaluation on the basis of the current lower rents.
