    Okay so some issues that have come up with my councils applications. Note, I am not asking if they are eligible for these things, I am asking are they in place

    1. Have they registered their business  premises with the council, and did they do so before the 11.3.2020.

    2. Have they been awarded (or were in process of an application for) small business rate relief, rural rate relief, or retail relief?

    3. Is the business rates council tax bill in the persons name that is applying for the grant?

    If all the above is correct, and already in place, what reason was given for the refusal?
