BBC: "Plan to boost UK High Streets after Mary Portas report"

Link to BBC web site

"The government has announced plans to try to revitalise the UK's High Streets, after a report by television retail expert Mary Portas.

Ministers are cutting red tape to make it easier for business people to move into empty premises and open so-called pop-up shops.

More than 11% of town centre shops are currently empty across the UK. Critics say the high level of rents and rates are a more serious hurdle than paperwork for new shopkeepers."
