Invest NI Financial Offers of Support 2021-22 to 2025-26

Invest NI financial offers of assistance to businesses approved between the 1 April 2021 and 31 March 2026. Dataset includes information on an individual offer basis; however, for various reasons the details of some offers are not disclosed. Invest NI also offers support to businesses through the provision of advice and guidance in the form of workshops, events, trade missions etc. The value of this assistance is not included in the dataset; however, to provide a full picture of the value of Invest NI support, data tables that aggregate both the published and non-published data have been included on this portal.

Annual End of Year Rates Balances by District Council and Sector

These tables relate to End of Year (EoY) Rates Balance values, and a count of occupancies* with a rates balance at the 31st March each year, as recorded on the Land & Property Services (LPS) rating system. The information provided is at a point in time and the tables are updated annually.

An occupancy is counted as having a rates balance where there is an outstanding balance of more than £0 at the end of the rating year.

This data is provided by Domestic, Non-Domestic and overall totals. Mixed properties (a property that is a mix of Domestic and Non-Domestic) are included within the Non-Domestic totals.

It is important to note that the End of Year Rates Balances figures include balances that cannot be legally enforced due to insolvency proceedings, ratepayers residing outside jurisdiction for legal action, as well as those ratepayers who continue to pay rates balances through agreed payment arrangements established through the rating year. LPS continues to pursue End of Year Rates balances throughout subsequent rating years.

The totals included above are not adjusted for receipts at Year End which have been paid by ratepayers, but not yet allocated to a particular rate account.

*An occupancy represents a liable person, persons, business or organisation at a property at a given time.

*Please note that the sum of amounts may not match the total due to rounding.

Housing Stock, by District Council, recorded as vacant

This table relates to properties included in the Housing Stock and recorded as vacant on the Land & Property Services (LPS) rating system. The information provided is at a point in time and the table is updated annually, in April of each year. 

In line with the Rates Order (NI) 1977, Housing Stock is defined as a count of properties which are valued as domestic or mixed for the purposes of rating and are in use (or when next in use, will be used) for the purposes of a private dwelling. This includes properties which are temporarily incapable of beneficial occupation, but excludes Caravans, Domestic Garages, Domestic Stores and Car Parking Spaces.

Since the introduction of the Rating of Empty Homes legislation on 1st October 2011, the rate liability for vacant domestic properties has been assessed at 100%. There is currently no requirement for ratepayers to inform LPS that their property is vacant, nor is there any financial advantage in doing so. As such, information in the rating system on domestic properties recorded as vacant may not be current or complete.

- A room, other than a kitchen, bathroom or toilet, which is mainly used by the person with a disability for treatment or therapy.				
- An extra kitchen for the person with a disability.					
- An extra toilet for the person with a disability.					
- An extra bathroom.

Ratepayers aged 70 or over and living alone may be entitled to a 20% reduction in their rates. LPS holds details on individual awards of LPA made by LPS and on the total amount of LPA awarded by NIHE at Northern Ireland level.
The information provided is at a point in time and the tables are updated annually.

Carriageway and Footway Surface Defects

This dataset contains carriageway surface defects (including potholes) recorded on public roads maintained by DfI Roads in Northern Ireland. Surface defects are recorded using a range of defect categories, e.g. pothole, rutted, depressed, cracked, uneven, etc. The defect is also prioritised dependant on severity and risk to the public.  This current yearly dataset is automatically updated each evening.
