EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Central Rating List (England) Regulations 2005 (“the Central Rating List Regulations”).

The Central Rating List Regulations designate persons and prescribe in relation to those persons descriptions of non-domestic hereditament, under section 53(1) of the Local Government Finance Act 1988, with a view to securing the central rating en bloc of those hereditaments.

The Schedule to the Central Rating List Regulations lists all designated persons and sets out the description of hereditament prescribed in relation to each of them. Regulation 2(2) of these Regulations amends Parts 8 and 9 of the Schedule that deal with electricity distribution and meter hereditaments to delete the names of two companies. As a result hereditaments of the description set out in column 2 of Parts 8 and 9 of the Schedule occupied or, if unoccupied, owned by the named companies (or, in the case of Laing Energy Limited, the company formerly bearing that name) will no longer be shown on the central rating list.

A full impact assessment had not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.

(1)

1988 c.41. Section 53 was amended by paragraph 29 of Schedule 5 to the Local Government and Housing Act 1989 (c.42). These powers are now vested in the Welsh Ministers so far as they are exercisable in relation to Wales. They were previously transferred to the National Assembly for Wales by article 2 of the National Assembly for Wales (Transfer of Functions) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/672): see the reference to the Local Government Finance Act 1988 in Schedule 1. By virtue of paragraphs 30 and 32 of Schedule 11 to the Government of Wales Act 2006 (c.32), they were transferred to the Welsh Ministers.

(2)

S.I. 2005/551, to which there are amendments not relevant to these Regulations.
