Non-Domestic Rating (Multipliers and Private Schools) Bill: Motion to disagree with Lords Amendments 15B, 15C, 15D, 15E

Passed302 ayes · 167 noes

What the vote was about

The Non-Domestic Rating (Multipliers and Private Schools) Bill would change the formula for calculating business rates and end charitable rate relief for private schools. The Lords had proposed amendments to the bill; this division concerned a motion to disagree with those amendments. For Cornwall, where tourism and hospitality form a large part of the economy, any change to business rates is a significant issue.

Why this division is tracked here

Business rates reform directly affects Cornwall's many tourism and hospitality businesses, which are vital to the local economy.
