23/03/2020 - COVID-19 Rates & CTax Relief ref: 230    For Determination

Government announced a number of measures to support Businesses and the vulnerable in society as part of the national COVID 19 response.

These reliefs need to be granted under a local scheme as the regulations do not permit this to be done as part of the national scheme.

There is a delegation approved as part of the budget report that allows the CFO to set up local schemes to match governments intentions, and it is under that delegation that this has been done.
