Dear

ATISN 16184 – Non-Domestic Rates for Self-Catering Properties

Thank you for your request which we received on 17 March. You asked for:

  • A breakdown of those organisations and individuals including those defined as anonymous respondents (121) and what was the suggested range of the numbers of days stated by each of them;
  • This request relates to the Welsh Government Consultation – summary of response Local taxes for second homes and self-catering accommodation where it states in relation to question 9 -
  • "A total of 121 responses provided alternative suggestions for the actually let criteria, with 118 suggesting a threshold higher than the current 70 days, ranging from 77 to 365 days. The most common specific suggestions were 105 days (38 responses) and 182 days or 6 months (9 responses)."  

A breakdown of the information you have requested is included in Annex 1.

If you are dissatisfied with the Welsh Government’s handling of your request, you can ask for an internal review within 40 working days of the date of this response.  Requests for an internal review should be addressed to the Welsh Government’s Freedom of Information Officer at:

Information Rights Unit, 
Welsh Government, 
Cathays Park, 
Cardiff, 
CF10 3NQ
Email: Freedom.ofinformation@gov.wales

Please remember to quote the ATISN reference number above.   

You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner.  The Information Commissioner can be contacted at: 

Information Commissioner’s Office
Wycliffe House
Water Lane
Wilmslow
Cheshire 
SK9 5AF. 

However, please note that the Commissioner will not normally investigate a complaint until it has been through our own internal review process.

Any information released under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 or Environmental Information Regulations 2004 will be listed in the Welsh Government’s Disclosure Log (at https://gov.wales/about/open-government/freedom-of-information/responses/?lang=en).

Yours sincerely

 

 

ANNEX 1 – EXTRACT OF RESPONSES

The consultation received 123 responses providing suggestions for the actually let criterion. Of these, two suggestions provided the value of 70 days, in line with the existing criteria, and are therefore not included in the following table. After further analysis, we have identified that, of the 121 suggestions providing alternatives, 120 suggested higher thresholds and one suggested a lower threshold.
