Minutes:
Cabinet considered the report of the Cabinet Member for Performance and Resources that sought to write off three Non-Domestic Rate debts in excess of £100,000.
The Cabinet Member for Performance and Resources expressed disappointment that this action was necessary but stressed that there was no impact on current budgets and that all possible avenues to recover these debts had been exhausted. She advised Members that the write off would not prevent the debts being pursued should additional information come to light in future. The Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Economy commented that these cases had special circumstances and represented a small percentage of the overall revenue.
RESOLVED that the amounts detailed in paragraph 4.0 of the report be written off.
