Coming into force

The Secretary of State for the Environment, in exercise of the powers conferred on him by section 147(1) and (2) of the Local Government Finance Act 1988(1), and of all other powers enabling him in that behalf, hereby makes the following Order:
1. This Order may be cited as the Local Government Finance (Consequential Amendment) (Coventry City Council) Order 1992 and shall come into force on 20th August 1992.
2. In section 97 (Coventry City Council: subscriptions to institutions, etc.) of the West Midlands County Council Act 1980(2), for the words from "for that year"to the end there shall be substituted-
"for the financial year beginning in 1989, determined in accordance with the Rate Product Rules 1981(3), and increased or decreased in the same proportion as the retail prices index for September of the financial year preceding that in which the payment in question is to be made shows an increase or decrease in relation to that for September 1989.
In this section "retail prices index" means the United Kingdom General Index of Retail Prices (for all prices) compiled by the Central Statistical Office or, if that index is not compiled for any month, any substituted index or index figures compiled by that Office."

(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order makes provision for the calculation of the upper limit on subscriptions to national institutions, public appeals etc. which may be made by Coventry City Council under section 97 of the West Midlands County Council Act 1980. The limit, previously calculated by reference to the product of a penny rate, is to be calculated by reference to the United Kingdom Index of Retail Prices (for all items), published each March in the Monthly Digest of Statistics for February by Her Majesty's Stationery Office. The amendment is consequent upon the abolition of domestic rates by the Local Government Finance Act 1988.
