Open petition: Stop using the fair maintainable trade calculation for pubs’ business rates

Created by Nicholas Roffe
Closes on

Change the unique way by which public houses are assessed for business rates. We think this will help to slow down the closures of public houses. Current taxation policies are making ever-increasing numbers of public houses unviable.
