FOI request (FOIR-768405145)

Please treat this as a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

I am requesting a dataset of all non-domestic hereditaments for which you are the Billing Authority, containing the following fields for each property:

1. Liable party name
• Please provide the full liable party name for companies, LLPs, charities, partnerships, and other non-natural persons.
• Where the ratepayer is an individual/sole trader, please redact the proprietor’s name and replace it with a neutral placeholder such as:
  “REDACTED – sole trader”.
2. Relief indicators (YES/NO for each):
• Retail, Hospitality & Leisure Relief
• Small Business Rates Relief
• Supporting Small Business Rates Relief
3. VOA-formatted address as held in your billing records (including UARN/RRN if held).
4. Annual charge / annual liability for the current financial year (net of reliefs).

Please provide the data in a machine-readable format such as CSV or Excel.

I understand that some business rates information is published online, but those publications do not include the VOA-formatted address or full relief indicators, so Section 21 does not apply.

If any field is not held, please confirm this under Section 1. If you believe any part of this request may exceed the cost limit, please provide advice and assistance under Section 16 and confirm what portion can be supplied within the limit I am happy to refine the request if necessary.

Thank you for your assistance.
