Non-domestic rates are what business have to pay, like council tax you pay for houses. Only thing with non-domestic rates is you get less for the money, no bins emptyed etc!

Yes the rates are set by the local councils, I bet there are no councils that dropped there rates though. Has anyone else recived their new rates yet?
