Agenda item

To consider and provide a recommendation to Cabinet on the proposals set out in the attached report. 

Jane Clarke, Head of Policy and Governance introduced the report set out in the agenda.

Discussion and questions from Members included the following:

-       It was likely the reason for the under performance for the collection of national non-domestic rates (NNDR) was due to the end of the Government’s  payment holiday for businesses. 

-       The target had been reduced for this year, but the Council would be undertaking some further profiling of those targets.  Revised targets should be in place for Quarter 3.

RESOLVED – That the recommendations to Cabinet as set out in the report be supported.
