National Non-Domestic Rating Multiplier
We work out the amount of Business Rates payable by multiplying
the rateable value of your property by the multiplier or 'poundage'
which the Government sets each year for the whole of England.
The Government normally changes the multiplier every year to
move in line with inflation. By law, the multiplier cannot go up by
more than the rate of inflation, except in the year of a
revaluation when it is set at a level which will keep the total
amount raised in rates after the revaluation the same as before,
plus inflation for that year.
