Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what information the Valuation Office Agency holds on the number of supermarkets that have a rateable value of above £500,000 in England.
This information is published by special category code (Scat) here: www.gov.uk/government/publications/non-domestic-rating-property-counts-and-rateable-value-rv-for-properties-in-england-with-rv-over-500000
The VOA consider Scat codes 139 Hypermarkets/superstores (over 2500 m2) and 152 Large food stores (750-2500 m2) as supermarkets.
