The Chair explained that this would need to be followed up with the Head of Finance. The Chair commented that if Nash Community Hall hired the hall for non-profit then they were entitled to the rates exemption. If the Hall was leased exclusively to a class, then the Hall would be charged. A representative stated that management of the working group was required for the halls to prosper so they are hired out and used all day. The representative stated that the money made was used on the hall and it was not hired out to Newport City Council to hold elections, it was to be used for local residents. It was requested by the Chair for Nash Community Council to be consulted on the above information. A representative asked whether political interest should be declared on the Declaration of Interest Form. The Chair confirmed that it was good practice to fill it in but this was not compulsory.
