	To-do list for Business rates:	edit  · history  · watch  · refresh
The City of London may set its own UBR. Find out if it does so, and what the enabling legislation is. Increase coverage of differences between England and Wales, making sure main article text doesn't concentrate solely on England. References required for transitional relief schemes A section on effective dates (within Alterations to the list), if it can be done without getting too bogged down in detail.

[edit] Removal of UBR history

In a recent edit I removed a piece of history on the Uniform Business Rate as it didn't really seem to fit when there was no wider history of business rates. I have no strong feelings against it, just felt a bit out of place. I intend to expand upon rateable value in a separate article, which is why its description here is very brief.Winklethorpe 00:24, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Work in progress

The page has now been significantly expanded. It can be considered to be a beta only, as a lot of legislation references need chasing down, and it probably needs a lot of formatting and standard-meeting changes. All comments welcome, as I hope to get it into better shape soon. Winklethorpe 09:08, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
