VOA publishes draft rateable values for BT
The Valuation Office Agency (VOA) has proposed rateable values for companies in England and Wales, for use from 1 April 2017. It has applied rateable values to BT of GBP715m in England and GBP28m in Wales, which compares to the current rateable values of GBP158m and GBP7m, respectively. The rate liability payable is calculated by applying a percentage multiplier to the rateable value. The Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG) has indicated that the multiplier will reduce to around 48% from around 50% currently. The DCLG is consulting on transitional relief arrangements. Under the Government's preferred transitional relief approach, the change to BT's rate liability would be phased in over five years, with the first year's increase being tens of millions of pounds in 2017/18.
The vast majority of the rate liability is attributed to regulated markets in Ofcom's charge controls.
BT considers the proposed rateable values to be excessive and will challenge the VOA on its method and assumptions. BT will also be responding to the transitional relief consultation.
BT's financial outlook for both 2016/17 and 2017/18 is unchanged.
