  Business Rates   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Non-domestic rates (Business Rates) are charged on all non-domestic properties according to the rateable value of the property.
Business rates are how users of non-domestic property contribute towards the cost of providing council services in the area, but rates are not a direct payment for services received.
Rates are normally paid by the occupier of non-domestic property – usually this is the owner-occupier or leaseholder.

Business bankruptcy rates are up to nine times higher than government data show, says a study out today asserting that the new bankruptcy law might hinder entrepreneurship because it does not reflect the true impact of small-business failures.
The study estimates that 19.5% of filings are at least partly business-related, vs. the 2.3% rate given by the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts, which compiles statistics for the federal judiciary.
That higher rate equaled as many as 315,000 business filings in 2003, vs. 37,000 reported by AOC, the study says.

State regulators are temporarily giving up their authority over phone rates for businesses in some parts of Metro Detroit this year in hopes of bolstering competition and lowering prices.
In response to a request by SBC Communications Inc., the Michigan Public Service Commission on Thursday agreed to deregulate rates for businesses in Detroit, Southfield and Royal Oak for a one-year trial period.
San Antonio-based SBC, Michigan's largest phone company, had asked the state to deregulate rates for homes and businesses in urban and suburban areas, arguing that the local telephone market is competitive enough to function without government oversight.

 Edison asks to cut business rates, lift home ones
"Left unchecked, the current rate structure would likely lead to steep future rate increases for residential customers, which would be difficult for them to absorb," said Michael Champley, senior vice president of regulatory affairs for DTE, in a statement.
Some have suggested that residential customers have been paying far less than what the actual cost of providing the service is. As a result, commercial customers, in particular small businesses, have been paying more than their fair share.
In that case, Edison was allowed to raise customer rates by a total of $335.8 million a year.

 MPSC Authorizes MCImetro Access to Alter Business Rates for Certain Services, U-13456
Although MCImetro advised each business customer that might be subject to the rate increases about the opportunity to comment on the proposed increases, the Commission received no comments from business customers on the proposed changes.
The Commission concurred with the MPSC staff assessment that the proposed increases are just and reasonable and permitted under the MTA.
MPSC staff found that the proposed rates are generally less than or equal to those charged by Ameritech Michigan and thus provide a competitive alternative to the dominant carrier’s product and price.
