New businesses - tax relief
This is taken from a list of help that new businesses can expect from the local/regional authorities when setting up in a certain area in France. It looks like it is to do with (among other things) tax exemption. It is item 2 that I need help with - I understand the language, but need confirmation on the concept. Does it perhaps mean that the items on which the exemption is available is UP TO 100% for a period of 5 years, but is available (at a progressively lower percentage) for a period of anything from 5 to 9 years?

tapering or amortizing (I would try tapering in this instance)
Hello,
I just looked up this term in the Quebec government's on-line dictionary this morning: there are two terms given: tapering and amortizing.
In your case I might think that tapering is a good choice. The website, by the way is below.
Hope this helps!
