Enterprise Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Toby Perkins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 2 February 2016. It occurred during Debate on bills on Enterprise Bill [Lords].

For someone who is obsessed about supporting small business growth, the Secretary of State’s Bill shows very little ambition. Can he say a little more about business rates, because the level of business rates is one of the major barriers to small businesses? It also impacts on manufacturing firms and retailers. Can he tell us more about what he will do to reduce the business rate bill of small businesses?
