Description: Folio 543. To: The Local Government Act Office. From: George Bailey, Clerk to the Luton Local Board, 3 Union Street, Luton [Bedfordshire]. Subject Matter: Letter referring to the assessment of rates on the owners of premises instead of occupiers except where the rateable value does not exceed £10, but where the assessment on the owners has been on two thirds of the net annual value. Bailey asks whether an allowance should be made for empty tenements. He comments on the great diversity of opinion on this subject throughout England, and therefore asks for the opinion of the Local Government Act Office on this matter.
