CVS statement on the Queen’s Speech 2015
Date published: 27 May 2015
Mark Rigby, Chief Executive of Commercial Valuers & Surveyors (CVS) says: “It’s positive to see that the Government is considering better information-sharing as part of business rates reform, but the benefits of this must extend directly to ratepayers.
"The Queen’s Speech and introduction to the Enterprise Bill make scant reference to the substantial reform promised under the coalition Government.
"Nonetheless, we hope these summary proposals can lead to meaningful improvements in efficiency, transparency and fairness in the business rates system, without creating new impediments for ratepayers who wish to challenge their business rates liabilities.”
