Book Description
This White Paper sets out the Government's proposal to introduce a power for local authorities and the Greater London Authority (GLA) to raise and retain local supplements on the national business rate, having examined carefully the potential benefits and costs, including economic impacts. Building on the extensive public sector debate on reforms to business rates in England, the recommendations of the Lyons Inquiry (ISBN 9780119898545) and the commitment to consider options for business rate supplements in the review of sub-national economic development and regeneration, the Government's proposed model for business rate supplements involves four levels of protection for business: revenue from supplements will only be available for spending on economic development, such as infrastructure. a national upper limit of 2p in the pound will be set on the level of supplements that can be levied. to protect smaller businesses from disproportionate burdens, properties liable for business rates with a rateable value of £50,000 or less will be exempted from paying supplements. where the supplement will support more than a third of the total cost of the project there will additionally be a full 'double-lock' ballot of businesses affected. Revenues from the supplements will be locally raised and retained, with local decision-making on the duration of any supplement and the specific projects it should be spent on. Only the highest tier local authority in ant area should be entitled to levy supplements. These authorities will be able to raise supplements for projects, within the existing statutory framework.

Local Government in the United Kingdom
Author: David WilsonPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 0230356672
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 464
Book Description
During its 13 years of office, Labour's modernization agenda transformed the world of UK local government. Amidst a starkly altered political and economic climate the coalition government formed in 2010 pledged to implement equally radical changes to the system. Taking account of the coalition's programme for government and its first round of spending cuts, the completely revised and updated fifth edition of this popular and established text is timed to take full advantage of this historic juncture. David Wilson and Chris Game provide readers with systematic coverage of the UK's local government. The book examines its defining features, its history, changing structure, operations, functions, financing, and its relations with central government. The fifth edition gives additional emphasis to local government in the devolved regions of the UK, and provides more extensive analysis of centre-local government relations. The authors deliver a thorough critique of Labour's third term in office. Looking ahead, the book anticipates the future of local government under the coalition government. Two themes look likely to dominate policy making: decentralization and cuts to public spending. With its clear, accessible, non-technical style and popular illustrations, Local Government in the United Kingdom will be essential reading for students, practitioners, and anyone with an interest in local politics.
