Occupiers of business premises are reminded that appeals against the rateable values of their premises (based on the 1 April 2008 valuation)  must be made by the end of this week. That valuation will affect your rates bill from April 2010.

The Valuation Office has urged businesses to check their valuations, see the VO website.

There is useful information regarding takign advice on the Valuation Office Agency website, but if you are unhappy with your valuation you should act now.
