What can local authorities do to incentivise the development of local strategies for retail? I assume the representatives have looked at the levy. What is their view on the progressive rate issue? I mentioned it to some enterprise organisations that represent the multiples. Obviously they have been less enthusiastic about it because they are minding their members' business. I would like to hear the perspective on that issue.
