The Association of Convenience Stores has welcomed the announcement of a new cross-departmental taskforce aimed at regenerating high streets and creating good growth in every postcode.
The taskforce is one of three announced today, with others focusing on the cost of living and increasing public control over services like utilities and transport.
ACS (the Association of Convenience Stores) has called on Chancellor John Healey to take action on business rates, crime and the cost of employing people to relieve the pressure on local shops dealing with a cost of trading crisis.
Over the last two years alone, business rates bills have risen by over 70%, while Employer National Insurance costs have almost doubled. Combined with year on year increases in the National Living Wage, expensive changes to employment rights and volatile energy costs, local shops are being left with very little room to breathe.
