Business of the Day

1. Non-Domestic Rating (Multipliers and Private Schools) Bill: Second Reading

Until 10.00pm (Standing Order No. 9(3))


Daisy Cooper

Vikki Slade

Munira Wilson

Steve Darling

Sarah Gibson

Clive Jones

That this House, while welcoming new powers to reduce multipliers for qualifying retail, hospitality and leisure businesses from 2026-27, declines to give the Non-Domestic Rating (Multipliers and Private Schools) Bill a Second Reading because it fails to deliver fundamental reform of the broken business rates system to boost businesses, high streets and economic growth; does not end the taxation of productive investment in business properties; does not address the cliff-edge of relief facing retail, hospitality and leisure business properties with a rateable value of more than £51,000; does nothing to offset the damaging impact of next year’s reduction in business rates relief from 75% to 40% for retail, hospitality and leisure; does not support businesses in other key sectors such as manufacturing; does not address the impact of workforce shortages, energy costs and high interest rates caused by the previous Government; does not make up for the cost to business caused by the unfair National Insurance contributions increase; and taxes education by levying a tax on schools that are charities, which is compounded by the introduction of VAT on independent school fees and the rise in National Insurance contributions, making things harder for 100,000 children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities in private education without Education, Health and Care plans.


Kevin Hollinrake

David Simmonds

Paul Holmes

That this House observes that the Autumn Budget 2024 has cut central Government funding for retail, hospitality and leisure business rate relief in 2025-26, and that this Government funding will end completely in 2026-27; expresses concern that the Non-Domestic Rating (Multipliers and Private Schools) Bill represents a stealth increase in business rates on high streets and the hospitality sector, as well as on larger businesses, on top of the Government’s increases in National Insurance contributions; regrets the lack of a proper cumulative impact assessment on the effect on business; notes that the removal of charitable rate relief on independent schools, taken together with the imposition of VAT, will mean fewer children going to private schools and will therefore create extra pressure on state schools, will undermine aspiration and parental choice, and mean larger class sizes in state schools and increased costs for taxpayers; and therefore declines to give a Second Reading to the Non-Domestic Rating (Multipliers and Private Schools) Bill.


2. Non-Domestic Rating (Multipliers and Private Schools) Bill: Programme

Backbench Business

International status of Taiwan

Blair McDougall

That this House, recalling that United Nations Resolution 2758 of 25 October 1971, which established the People’s Republic of China (PRC) as the only legitimate representative of China to the United Nations (UN), does not mention Taiwan, notes that UN Resolution 2758 does not address the political status of Taiwan or establish PRC sovereignty over Taiwan and is silent both on the status of Taiwan in the UN and on Taiwanese participation in UN agencies; and calls on the Government to clarify its position that UN Resolution 2758 does not establish the One China Principle as a matter of international law, to state clearly that nothing in law prevents the participation of Taiwan in international organisations and to condemn efforts made by representatives of the PRC to distort the meaning of UN Resolution 2758 in support of Beijing’s One China Principle and the alteration of historic documents by representatives of the PRC, changing the name of the country from Taiwan to Taiwan, province of China.

Freedom of religion in Pakistan

Jim Shannon

That this House notes reports of deteriorating religious freedom situation in Pakistan; expresses its concern over the alleged widespread forced conversions and human rights abuses of minority religious groups; deplores the lack of action by the Pakistani government, which represents a serious violation of Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights; and further notes that the arrest of opposition religious leaders by the local authorities has led to condemnation both in Pakistan and further afield.
