Proceeding contribution from John Healey (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 April 2009. It occurred during Legislative debate on Rating and Valuation (S.I., 2009, No. 204).

Rating and Valuation (S.I., 2009, No. 204)

My hon. Friend is right: I have seen the letter, because he made sure that I would see it. I am sure that the companies in his constituency will look at that information very closely, and will consult some of their professional advisers on where it places them in relation to ABP. I have a copy of the letter from ABP, which, as a result of the 2005 revaluation, told its occupiers"““it will inevitably mean that… some of the increase will… be passed on to our customers””." As I said to my hon. Friend the Member for Cleethorpes (Shona McIsaac), that is a matter that they must take up, rightfully and directly, with the port operators.
