AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

High-Street Pressure, Real Estate Fallout: Carlisle’s trading belt is seeing fresh vacancies, with the former House of Malt site on Warwick Road advertised at £22,500 a year and other city-centre units also coming to market—another sign of cost strain and a tougher retail climate. Local Planning Row: Anglesey residents are up in arms over plans for 47 shipping containers at a former school site in Dwyran, fearing a quiet hamlet could be turned into an industrial estate. SME Cashflow Push: The government has introduced landmark late-payment legislation aimed at stopping large firms from delaying payments that small suppliers rely on. Tax Admin Made Easier: Lloyds has launched a free Making Tax Digital for Income Tax tool for small businesses inside its Business Account, powered by BankiFi. Renter Safety Spotlight: A new report warns private landlords can’t treat damp and mould as minor maintenance, as tenant protections keep tightening.
