Thirdly, even though in Our areas resettlement shop- kempers were in direct competi~ ¦ tion with other shopkeepers. they were not required to pay rates in the normal way. the Commissioner For Resettlement continued.
The revised rents for shops occupying an area of 240 square feet each are: Grade A, $200 a month, including $30 for rates; Grade C, $115, including $15 for rates and Grade D, $80,
Large or cluding $10 for rates. amalier shops are to pay rents in proportion to their sizes.

Of the 4.000 shop sites affect- ed, eleven per cent of them bave been classified as Grade A, eleven per cent Grade 8, 64 per cent Grade C and 14 per cent Grude D.

However, it feels that taking into account the favourable loratit of their shops and the general level of rents outside reselliement estates, are not unreasonable,
