Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

The Valuation Timetable (Scotland) Order 1995 prescribes dates on which, and periods within which, various things require to be done in relation to valuation rolls coming into force on or after 1st April 1995. This Order amends that Order as regards the last date for the lodging of appeals and complaints with a valuation appeal committee. At present the date is the later of two dates, one of which is 15th December in the year of revaluation. This Order substitutes for that date a reference to 30th September in that year.
