The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many hereditaments in England have a rateable value over £500,000 broken down by Special Category Code.

Answered by James Murray

The VOA publishes official statistics on Non-Domestic Rating on gov.uk.

The number of properties over £500,000 in rateable value broken down by property sector is published. This can be found in table 2.2 here:
