Details
This release provides details of the national non-domestic rates collected by local authorities in England in 2012 to 2013 and updates the figures that were announced on 14 August 2013.
The latest statistics release includes data between 2008 to 2009 and 2012 to 2013.
The key points from the latest release are:
-
as a result of certification by auditors, there are a number of changes from the previous release at a local authority level; however the net result at an all England level is very small. The net change in the contribution to the pool figure is that it has fallen by £8 million from £21,360 million to £21,352 million
-
the net rate yield (after allowances for changes in respect of previous years and reliefs) increased by 3.7% to £21.8 billion in 2012 to 2013
-
the contribution to the pool (net rate yield after allowances for collection costs including losses) grew by 3.4% over the figure for 2011 to 2012; although there was a 5.6% increase in the multiplier, and a small increase in the overall rateable value in England, there was a large increase in changes in respect of previous years coupled with the continuing growth in the amount of mandatory charity relief granted, a rise in the amount of empty property relief granted and a rise in the small business rate relief granted
-
between 2008 to 2009 and 2012 to 2013 the contribution to the pool from the local lists increased by £2.6 billion or 14%
-
local authorities granted a total of £2.4 billion of mandatory and discretionary reliefs in 2012 to 2013, an increase of nearly 12% compared with 2011 to 2012
-
local authorities granted a total of £1.3 billion of mandatory charity relief in 2012 to 2013, an increase of more than 13% when compared with the 2011 to 2012 figure and an increase of 52% when compared with 2008 to 2009
-
local authorities granted a total of £957 million in empty property relief in 2012 to 2013, an increase of more than 11% when compared with the 2011 to 2012 figure
