Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether inbound tourist currency exchange shops serving inbound tourists are distinct from bureau de change shops serving local immigrants transferring currency out of the country, in respect of eligibility for covid-19 Business Rates Relief.

The Government has published guidance on eligibility for the business rates holiday for retail, hospitality and leisure properties.

It is for Local Authorities to implement any reliefs and make decisions on eligibility in line with that guidance.
