Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Community Charge Benefits (General) Regulations 1989 to take account of the reduction of the amount of a charging or levying authority’s personal community charge in consequence of the Community Charges (General Reduction) Act 1991 (the 1991 Act);

they revoke the provision prescribing the minimum amount of a community charge benefit (regulation 2);

they specify the circumstances in which claims for benefit made after 1st April 1991 are to be treated as having been made earlier on a date on or after 1st April 1991 (regulation 3);

they require that where a personal community charge is reduced in consequence of the 1991 Act awards of benefit in respect of that charge shall be reviewed but that notices in respect of such a reduction need not be given (regulations 4 to 7);

they provide that benefits awarded in excess of a person’s entitlement following a reduction of a personal community charge in consequence of the 1991 Act shall be recoverable (regulations 8 and 9).
