Non-Domestic Rates (Levying) (Scotland) Regulations 2014 (SSI 2014/30)
Agenda item 3 is consideration of three negative instruments. Members have received a paper from the clerks on the purpose of the instruments. They were considered by the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee, which had no comments to make.
I take this opportunity to very much welcome the continuation of the business bonus scheme, which is so valuable to many of our smaller businesses across Scotland and is encompassed in the Non-Domestic Rate (Scotland) Order 2014 (SSI 2014/28).
Thank you. Does the committee agree not to make any recommendation to the Parliament on any of the instruments?
Thank you very much. We now move into private session.
