(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations apply only to Wales.
By virtue of the provisions of section 73 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 ("the Act"), these Regulations require information relating to population calculations to be supplied to Welsh precepting authorities (county councils and community councils) by their appropriate charging authorities.
Regulation 3 requires the charging authority to notify its county council of its estimate of its community charge income used in the calculation of its relevant population for a financial year required by regulation 3 of the Charging Authorities (Population for Precepts) (Wales) Regulations 1989 ("the principal regulations").
Regulation 4 requires that if a calculation of the relevant population of part of a charging authority's area has been calculated for a financial year under regulation 7 of the principal regulations, and that part consists of the area of a community council or the area, within the district, of a levying body, the charging authority shall notify the result for that body or council.
Regulation 5 requires a charging authority to inform (within a prescribed period) all other community councils of the figure which would be their relevant population for a financial year if it had been calculated under regulation 7 of the principal regulations.
S.I. 1989/2268.
