Registered childcare providers will now receive 100% relief until 31 March 2022, during which time it will be evaluated to assess its effect.
In December 2017, following NDNA Cymru‘s work with the Welsh Government, they announced a new small business rates relief scheme to benefit more nurseries in Wales. This was extended to all nurseries in 2018. The scheme is administered by local authorities and is automatically applied to the bills of eligible ratepayers.
Bills are usually issued from March onwards and ratepayers should contact their individual local authority with any queries regarding their non-domestic rates bill and entitlement to rates relief.
