Enhanced capital allowances will be available for plant and machinery investment in designated areas in a limited number of Enterprise Zones, the government announced as it named 11 new Enterprise Zones in England.
The new zones will benefit from business rate discounts, ‘radically simplified’ approaches to planning, and government support ‘to ensure superfast broadband is rolled out’.
Deloitte said the detail around some of the zones was ‘patchy’. A map showing Enterprise Zones and Local Enterprise Partnerships is available on the website of the Department for Communities and Local Government.
The Welsh Government is being urged to finalise plans for Enterprise Zones amid ‘fears those in England may attract businesses away from Wales’, the BBC reported last week.
