Decision:

As per the recommendation.

Minutes:

            The Cabinet Member for Corporate Management introduced a report to request authorisation to write off a single business rates debt amounting to £62,492.68.

 

            The Head of Finance provided details on the write off and explained that there would be no financial implications to the Council or to local taxpayers in relation to the write off of bad debts for business rates since the Council collected business rates on behalf of the Welsh Government (WG) through a National Collection Pool in Wales. 

 

RESOLVED:

 

That the write off of a debt amount to £62,492.68 relating to business rate charges for the period between 1 April 2011 to 14 February 2012 be approved.
