Proposed tax hike for businesses with solar panels

  • Reference: 2016/3673
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 19 October 2016
The Valuation Office Agency's draft rateable values for 2017 for all properties that pay business rates are proposing a six- to eight-fold tax rise for businesses that own solar panels and use the power themselves. Given your decentralised energy targets and forthcoming solar strategy, will you make a representation to the relevant Government departments against these proposals which the Solar Trade Association believes will severely damage solar deployment and delay cost parity with fossil fuels?

Energy for Londoners - budget

  • Reference: 2016/3666
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 19 October 2016
Bristol City Council allocated £1.5m (£0.5m of which is contingency funding) to establish the Bristol Energy Company and Nottingham City Council invested a similar sum, around £1m in setting up Robin Hood Energy. What initial budget has been allocated for the setting up of your proposed fully licensed energy supply company 'Energy for Londoners'? Could you also include details of any budget allocated for 2017/18 and 2018/19?

Limitations of using public transport accessibility levels (PTAL)

  • Reference: 2016/3665
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 19 October 2016
Transport for London (TfL) has acknowledged the limitations of using Public Transport Accessibility Levels (PTALs) as the sole indicator of an area's connectivity. TfL has developed a London-specific measure of Access to Opportunities and Services (ATOS) which defines those services and opportunities that are the most important and essential for the day to day wellbeing of residents. Will you therefore discontinue the use of PTALS as a measurement for density and parking and use ATOS instead?
