(This note is not part of the Regulations)
Under Part II of Schedule 8 to the Local Government Finance Act 1988, billing authorities are required to pay amounts (called non-domestic rating contributions) to the Secretary of State. Payments in respect of a provisional amount of the contributions are made during the financial year, final calculations and any adjustments of payments being made after the year ends.
These Regulations amend for 1996 the rules for calculation of contributions contained in the Non-Domestic Rating Contributions (England) Regulations 1992. They alter certain figures used in the calculation of contributions and provisional amounts and make provision, for the purpose of calculating provisional amounts, in relation to areas ceasing to be enterprise zones during the year.
1988 c. 41; section 140 and section 143 were amended by paragraph 69 and paragraph 72 of Schedule 5 to the Local Government and Housing Act 1989 (c. 42, "the 1989 Act"), and paragraphs 4 and 6 of Schedule 8 were amended by paragraph 42 of Schedule 5 to the 1989 Act and by paragraph 6 of Schedule 10 and by paragraph 86 of Schedule 13 to the Local Government Finance Act 1992 (c. 14).
