(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend provisions of the Non-Domestic Rating (Collection and Enforcement) (Central Lists) (Regulations) 1989 which relate to the collection by the Secretary of State of amounts due to him by way of non-domestic rates in respect of ratepayers whose names appear in a central non-domestic rating list.
They are consequential on the Non-Domestic Rating Act 1993. Section 1 of that Act provides for the freezing in real terms in the financial year beginning on 1st April 1993 of rate increases for those moving to higher rate bills under the transitional arrangements.
These Regulations provide for adjustments to be made to the amount of non-domestic rates which falls to be paid, and consequential modifications of collection arrangements, similar to those applied by the Non-Domestic Rating (Collection and Enforcement) (Central Lists) (Amendment) Regulations 1992 (S.I. 1992/1513) for the purposes of changes to the non-domestic rating transitional arrangements made by the Non-Domestic Rating Act 1992 (c. 46).
1988 c. 41. Relevant amendments are made by paragraph 44(2) and (3) of Schedule 5 to the Local Government and Housing Act 1989 (c. 42) and paragraph 87 of Schedule 13 to the Local Government Finance Act 1992 (c. 14).
