The Cabinet Member for
Finance & Resources has given approval to the write off of 4
outstanding Business Rates debts (totalling £53,203.13) that
are considered irrecoverable.
Every possible method of recovery has been attempted to recover
these debts. However, for the reasons stated in the report, there
is no further recovery action that can be taken to recover the
money owed.
If circumstances change and it becomes possible to recover the
debt, recovery can be reinstated even if the debt has been written
off.
It is recommended that these debts are now written off as all
attempts to recover the monies owed have been exhausted.
(NOTE: The report contains a confidential appendix that has been
circulated to the decision maker only).
