Sandwell Given Help to lift Small Business Tax

More help to Sandwell's small business’s as been given approval by
Eric Pickles

We have already doubled the rate discount small businesses get, but we want to see as many small business ratepayers as possible to claim their tax cuts so we will change the rules so councils can administer the scheme without being caught up in unnecessary Government red tape.

The Government will also amend secondary legislation to ensure that all eligible businesses automatically have their discounted bills calculated using the small business multiplier. Other measures to support business in the upcoming Localism Bill will include increased powers for businesses to hold a ballot on Business Rate Supplements. This will allow liable businesses to vote for and in effect approve the planned economic development project that they will be funding.

Sandwell Tory said
Finally after 10 years of waiting we have a plan to help businesses in Sandwell; we have doubled the Rate Relief for small businesses, now we need to concentrate on our 6 towns within our borough, so they may become healthy and vibrant, with links to the new LEP’s

Taxing them to death under the old Labour plans just leads to closures and more card board pictures on the front windows of our shops and don’t forget Labour’s 10 years of promises
I await the first Ballot on the West Bromwich town centre project

Can you please tell any one with a small business to contact us for more details
