Abstract

On 1 April 1990, with the introduction of the Uniform Business Rate, came new provisions relating to the rating of empty non‐industrial hereditaments. In a booming marketplace, with almost full occupancy, the imposition of a 50 per cent compulsory unoccupied rate charge might pass unnoticed. However, in a depressed market, costs incurred by owners of unoccupied property have widespread implications. Based on under‐graduate research, concentrates on why unoccupied rate liability was introduced in its previous and present form, the reasons for its past reform and the justification for reform of the present legislation. Analyses the plight of owners today and prepares a case for the reform of the current legislation.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to examine the way in which the UK Labour Government “framed” the policy and practice debate on social enterprise, the way in which “strategic” networks were (or were not) facilitated and the extent to which scale and geography shaped policy choices after 1997.

Design/methodology/approach

The paper examines three phases of development through a series of examples/case studies all of which are based in the West Midlands in the UK. The paper draws upon the author's practice and experience as both a practitioner and researcher during this period. Interviews with other key individuals are undertaken to inform the author's reflections and analysis.

Findings

The paper suggests that there is a risk that experience, knowledge and understanding are at risk as there seems to be poorly developed processes and systems to “capture” informed understanding and that the importance of regional networks to promote practice and to protect innovation are often poorly developed and supported.

Research limitations/implications

The paper is timely given the renewed focus by political parties in the UK on the role of the third sector in providing the “solution” for a number of public sector initiatives.

Practical implications

The paper cuts across both the literature/debate on public policy as well as that on the role of networks and decision making within informal (as well as formal) organisations.

Originality/value

The paper is timely and will add to an awareness of policy choices and the importance of sustaining a “memory” of past (and current) programmes.
