The government keeps all taxes under review.<\/p>
<\/p>
The government completed a fundamental review of business rates in 2016. Respondents were in favour of retaining a property based tax, and agreed that business rates are easy to collect, difficult to avoid, stable, and clearly linked to local government spending.<\/p>
<\/p>
Alternative taxes were proposed, but there was no consensus on these options and respondents were clear that they each presented their own significant challenges. At Budget 2018 the government announced Our Plan for the High Street, which includes a new retail discount cutting eligible retailers\u2019 business rates bills by a third for two years from April 2019.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1091", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Bates"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Lord Bates"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-12-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-12-20T14:37:52.51Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "14"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-12-14", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Non-domestic Rates"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government, whether they are considering an alternative to business rates.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4153", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Kennedy of Southwark"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Kennedy of Southwark"} ], "uin" : "HL12326"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/994717", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Treasury"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/994717/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
Financial entities that wish to operate as universal banks are subject to the 2012 Financial Services (Banking Reform) Act. The Act requires large UK banks with retail deposits totaling more than £25 billion to ring-fence the deposits of individuals and small businesses from other activities within their groups, such as investment and international banking. By insulating these core banking services in a separate legal entity, ring-fencing will support continuity of provision of vital services to the economy if there are shocks originating elsewhere in the group and the global financial system. It will also make banks that provide these essential services simpler and more resolvable and therefore prevent the costs of failing banks falling on taxpayers. This restructuring was successfully completed by all UK banks within scope in the summer of 2018 and the regime will come into force in January 2019.<\/p>
<\/p>
Ring-fencing has been part of the Government\u2019s package of banking reforms since 2010, designed to deliver a stable, sustainable and competitive banking system so banks will be better placed to meet their core purpose of lending to the real economy and contributing to economic growth. As part of this strategy, competition and innovation is at the heart of the Government\u2019s vision for UK financial services to deliver greater choice and value for all.<\/p>

Whilst meeting rental payments is not sufficient in itself to demonstrate affordability over the lifetime of a loan, the Government believes it is right that a history of paying rent should be recognised in tenants\u2019 credit scores and in affordability assessments.<\/p>
<\/p>
That\u2019s why, at Autumn Budget 2017, the Government announced the Rent Recognition Challenge: a £2m competition seeking FinTech solutions to enable tenants to record and share their rental data. The Challenge uses the ingenuity of the technology sector to deliver solutions that work for both consumers and businesses.<\/p>

Private equity and venture capital have provided over £27 billion of investment into more than 3,900 UK companies in the past five years.

This Government recognises the value of co-operatives and other mutually owned businesses. The Government\u2019s policy is to maintain a level playing field between co-operatives and other legal forms.<\/p>
<\/p>
In 2014, the coalition government introduced a number of measures to support the co-operative sector, including consolidating all the existing laws, to make it easier for societies to understand and apply the legislative framework and the rules governing them. The coalition government also simplified the electronic registration process to help new societies start up.<\/p>
<\/p>
In February 2018 the Government brought forward a measure to bring audit requirements for small co-operatives into line with those for small companies. This measure came into force on 6 April, and will save growing societies thousands of pounds in auditors\u2019 fees that companies of the same size do not have to pay.<\/p>

The PSR has committed to using its powers to act should LINK behave in a way that conflicts with its statutory objectives.<\/p> Regarding the number of ATMs available in the UK, this data is publicly available on the LINK website.

These include a new requirement on UK quoted companies to disclose and explain each year the ratio of their CEO\u2019s total remuneration to the average remuneration of their UK employees. The statutory instrument also obliges very large private companies, including utility companies where they are unquoted, to report each year on how they are ensuring good corporate governance.

For example, Ofwat have recently consulted on new measures to improve corporate governance in the water sector, including measures to assess the link between executive remuneration, dividend payments and performance delivery for customers. Although these regulators operate independently of government, government engages with them closely to ensure they are able to carry out their functions effectively.<\/p> <\/p> Additionally, the Government has invited James Wates to lead a business and wider society coalition group to develop corporate governance principles suitable for use by large private companies. These principles are currently being consulted on with a view to finalising them by the end of the year.<\/p>"}
