1. Please can you email me a list of September/October or Q2/3 (most current) business rates credits you currently hold for businesses including:
• The company name for whom the credit exists
• The start date of the business rates account
• If the account is still live or the date it ended
• The full property address of the property with the credit on
• The date / year of when the credit was created
• The full amount of credit you hold for the business
• The reason for the credit e.g., 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.
We publish our Business Rates information, and update this on a regular basis. Therefore we are refusing this request under Section 21 and 22 of the Freedom of Information Act. This information can be found on the following page under the Business Rates category and we would ask you to bookmark this page for future reference if you find it of interest; https://www.wokingham.gov.uk/council-and-meetings/open-data-and-transparency/data-sets-and-open-data

The public interest test has been considered and as the information is updated periodically, and resource is better utilised elsewhere within the authority, it is not appropriate to create the dataset outside of the usual scheduled slot.
