Proceeding contribution from Clive Betts (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 February 2011. It occurred during Debate on Local Government Finance.


Local Government Finance

I understand that revenues from business rates go up and down, so when they go up more should be distributed to local authorities as a result. [Interruption.] Rather than engaging in further debate on this, I am happy to pass on to the Secretary of State the legal advice that the LGA has given me and ask him, if he believes that it is wrong, to issue a detailed correction. That seems an appropriate way to proceed.
