Council Tax (New Valuation Lists for England) Bill

At the start of this debate, I was considerably confused as to whether to support the amendment; thankfully, on listening to the speeches the situation is much clearer. My Wellingborough constituents are fearful of any revaluation, and the amendment tabled by my hon. Friend the Member for Mole Valley (Sir Paul Beresford) would allow for an earlier revaluation than they want, so, unfortunately, I cannot support it, because it would make revaluation easier, rather than more difficult.
