From 1st April 2018, a new Small Business Rate Relief scheme will operate in Wales. This scheme will aim to more effectively target support for small businesses. The consultation invites views on proposals including:
- limiting relief for businesses qualifying for SBRR across multiple properties
- reviewing current and future exceptions from SBRR
- increasing support for eligible small businesses
- providing additional relief for certain sectors which support wider government objectives, for example the childcare sector
- longer term considerations for the scheme.
