Is the Government delivering on its promise to replace business rates with a fairer property tax system?

• Details of the ‘Non-domestic Rating (Multipliers and Private Schools) Act 2025’ – legislation rushed through in Labour’s first months in office
• 2026 revaluation – which sectors and localities will be most affected?
