question text	To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment he has made of the benefits of exempting registered community benefit societies from (a) corporation tax and (b) business and non-domestic rates.
tabling member constituency	Plymouth, Sutton and Devonport

uin	179
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/06/2017 answer text <p>Community benefit societies which are not registered charities currently pay corporation tax on their profits, investment income and any capital gains. At present the government does not consider a specific exemption from corporation tax to be appropriate as there are alternative routes by which community benefit societies could access an exemption- most importantly registering as a charity if the relevant conditions are met.</p><p> </p><p>The business rates system also includes a number of reliefs and exemptions for registered charities. If a community benefit society is a registered charity then it would be potentially eligible for this support. And all community benefit societies will benefit from the reduction in business rates announced at Budget 2016, which is worth almost £9bn.</p> answering member constituency Central Devon answering member printed Mel Stride question first answered 28/06/2017 13:48:41 answering member 3935 label Biography information for Mel Stride

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/06/2017 answer text <p>The previous Financial Secretary, in a letter to the hon. Member for Bassetlaw dated 19<sup>th</sup> April 2017, set out that a waiver of landfill tax for such cases would set a perverse incentive which may lead to the abandonment of other such waste sites. Therefore it would be counterproductive to waive the landfill tax liability in this case. I agree with this assessment.</p><p> </p><p>HM Treasury has made no estimate as to the value of the site at Sandy Lane, Worksop.</p><p> </p><p>HM Treasury has not held any meetings with other government departments concerning the removal of landfill tax from abandoned waste sites owned by the Crown Estate.</p> answering member constituency Central Devon answering member printed Mel Stride grouped question UIN 599 877 question first answered 27/06/2017 15:13:19 answering member 3935 label Biography information for Mel Stride
