A total of 228 responses were received to the Further Consultation on 100 per cent Business Rates Retention; 187 from local government, 7 from local authority associations, and 34 from other interested parties. The Department for Communities and Local Government is currently conducting analysis of these responses. This will inform further development of business rates retention policy. We are currently considering how this work will progress in the wider context of further rates retention policy.
