Question:
To ask the Minister of Finance and Personnel to outline the number of homes in Northern Ireland valued at £400,000 and above for rating purposes.

Answer:

There are 7,412 domestic properties in the Valuation List with a capital value equal to or above £400,000.

Domestic rates are capped at £400,000; in other words, all 7,412 of these properties have rate bills based on a capital value of £400,000 regardless of their actual capital value assessment in the Valuation List.
