The Government has announced a new Covid-19 Additional Relief Fund (CARF) of £1.5 billion.

The purpose of the fund is to support those businesses affected by the pandemic but that were ineligible for existing support linked to business rates.

The £1.5 billion has been allocated to local authorities based upon the estimated rateable value in each local authority rating list which falls within the scope of the fund.

The relief is available to reduce chargeable amounts in respect of 2021/22 Business Rates bills only.
