Responded Fri 01 December 2023Please can you email me a list of November or Q3 (most current) business rates credits you currently hold for businesses including:
1. The company name for whom the credit exists,
2. The start date of the business rates account,
3. If the account is still live or the date it ended,
4. The full property address of the property with the credit on,
5. The date/year of when the credit was created,
6. The full amount of credit you hold for the business, and
7. The reason for the credit (for example, retail relief, overpayment).
If you publish credits online, but the information has not been updated on time, please advise when this information will be updated.
Response
Please see attached, our response to your Freedom of Information request.
This was created 20th November 2023.
Please note that the Property Reference Number relates to the property, not the account number for the customer. This reference is available on the internet, for example the gov.uk website regarding a property's rateable value.
The figure in the 'outstanding debt' column is the credit amount.
We do not have a report with an option to pick up credits, so we selected those with a debt with less than zero to pick up all accounts in credit.
NOTICE OF REFUSAL
The information you have requested in respect of a reason for the credit occurring would require us to manually check each customer record. This would far exceed the time limit set out by the Information Commissioner. S12 of the Freedom of information Act 2000 provides an exemption from the obligation to comply with a request for information if the estimated costs of complying with that request would exceed the prescribed appropriate limit.
We estimate that the costs of complying with your request would exceed the appropriate limit by a significant amount.
For this reason we feel unable to comply with this request.
