Part of 1. 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:39 pm on 8 November 2016.
Thank you very much, Presiding Officer. As a party that broke the glass ceiling nearly 40 years ago, First Minister, I’ll gladly hand the Labour Party the manual on how to elect a female to be leader, should you care to read that manual. But, I want to ask you a serious question on business rates, if possible, please, First Minister. With the recent revaluation of businesses the length and breadth of Wales, many businesses face horrendous increases in their business rates. What is your view on the revaluation that has taken place and the position that many small and medium-sized businesses find themselves in?
