Proceeding contribution from Anne Main (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 1 December 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Council Tax (New Valuation Lists for England) Bill.


Council Tax (New Valuation Lists for England) Bill

My right hon. Friend touched on localism, so let us consider the very small picture. A large supermarket retailer has bought a considerable number of properties and a small industrial area in a blighted part of my constituency. This situation has been ongoing for several years and under a local system, local people would be pushing the council for a devaluation on the ground of blight. A very local system could lead to the sending of very mixed messages.
