The Valuation Office Agency published data comparing changes between the 2023 non-domestic rating lists and 2026 draft non-domestic rating lists on GOV.UK.

These statistics were released alongside the publication of the 2026 draft list.

They contain information about changes in the mean Rateable Value of public houses (RVL_5 _1, Row 13) and changes by administrative area (RVL_2_1). A data set collating the two is not published.
