Presented by the Corporate Portfolio Holder

The Corporate Portfolio Holder presented the report to Members.

He advised the majority of the Non-Domestic Rate debt write off amount related to one large assessment totalling £270k where the company was in a ‘company voluntary arrangement.

It was moved by Councillor N J Rushton, seconded by Councillor R Blunt and

RESOLVED THAT:

1.    The Non Domestic Rates and Sundry Debt write offs that were over £10,000 be approved;

2.    The amounts written off under delegated powers be noted; and

3.    The amounts of sundry debts previously written off under delegated powers in 2016/17 and 2017/18 be approved.

Reason for decision: To comply with proper accounting practices.
