A scheme of transitional arrangements is in operation which phases in the effect of significant changes in Business Rates liability which arise from the 2005 revaluation of non-domestic property. Where appropriate, these arrangements will operate until March 2010 (when all Non-Domestic properties will be revalued again).

The scheme places limits on the percentage by which bills may increase or decrease each year. Special rules deal with changes in rateable values and the merger and splitting of existing properties.

Transitional arrangement reductions are automatically calculated by the Council and deducted from the Business Rates bill.
