The Large NAV Business Grant scheme being delivered by Land & Property Services will provide financial support to businesses occupying large commercial premises with a Net Annual Value (NAV) of over £51,000 and which also qualified for the 12 months rates holiday.

 

 

Encouraging eligible businesses to apply, Conor Murphy said, “Throughout the pandemic, I have been determined to ensure that support reached as many businesses as possible.

“This new Grant Scheme will make available more than £50 million of financial assistance to hundreds of businesses across a wide range of sectors including childcare, retail, manufacturing, hospitality, tourism and leisure.

“Although we have started on the Pathway out of Restrictions, businesses are still dealing with the impacts of the pandemic.
