EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends the Council Tax (Exempt Dwellings Order 1992 (S.I. 1992/558) (“the 1992 Order”).

Council tax is not payable in respect of exempt dwellings (section 4 of the Local Government Finance Act 1992 (c. 14)). Classes of exempt dwellings are prescribed in the 1992 Order.

This Order inserts a new Class X into the 1992 Order. This exempts dwellings in Wales—

  • which are occupied by one or more care leavers, and

  • where every resident is either a care leaver, a relevant person within the definition in Class N of the 1992 Order (students etc.), or a severely mentally impaired person.

This Order defines the term “care leaver” with reference to a category 3 young person, as defined in the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014 (anaw 4).

The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to this Order. As a result, a regulatory impact assessment has been prepared as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with this Order. A copy can be obtained from the Welsh Government, Cathays Park, Cardiff, CF10 3NQ.
