Reimbursement

4.—(1) The net expenditure of the Authority in any financial year shall be apportioned between the district councils in the county of South Yorkshire in proportion to the population of their districts, as that population is certified for the making of levies with respect to that year under section 74(2) of the 1985 Act (levies by residuary bodies); and the appropriate portions shall be recoverable by the Authority from each of those councils on written demand.

(2) Any such demand as is mentioned in paragraph (1) may be made quarterly with respect to the net expenditure of the Authority in the periods of 3 months beginning on 1st April, 1st July, 1st October and 1st January in any year; and the Authority may require a payment in advance and on account of a demand in relation to such a period (not exceeding its estimate of the amount of that demand) not earlier than one month before the period commences.

(3) In this article “net expenditure” means all expenditure and costs incurred by the Authority after deduction of receipts (if any), not being expenditure or costs which may be paid out of, or receipts which fall to be credited to, the superannuation fund maintained by the Authority under the Local Government Superannuation Regulations 1986(1).

(4) Notwithstanding any winding-up of the Residuary Body pursuant to section 67 of the 1985 Act, the functions of the Registrar General and the Secretary of State under section 74(2) of that Act shall continue with respect to the certification of population for the purposes of the reimbursement of the Authority under this article.

(5) For the purposes of any other enactment (including in particular section 34 of the Local Loans Act 1875(2)) any sum demanded or required under this article shall be treated as money to be raised out of a rate.
