answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/01/2020 answer text <p>The Government recognises that local authority owned public toilets are valuable community amenities. However, primary legislation would be required to provide business rates relief for public toilets owned by principal local authorities and parish councils, as such bodies cannot currently have their rates bills reduced through reliefs. The Non-Domestic Rating (Lavatories) Bill, which would have resolved this matter, fell when Parliament was dissolved. The Government will consider reintroducing the measure in due course.</p> answering member constituency Thornbury and Yate answering member printed Luke Hall question first answered 24/01/2020 14:27:17 answering member 4450 label Biography information for Luke Hall
