(b)in the case of a hereditament which, though not a dwelling-house, is used partly for the purposes of a private dwelling, so much of the amount payable on account of the rate as is computed by reference to the domestic element of the rateable value of the hereditament.

[F1(2A) The Department may by order direct that for the percentage mentioned in paragraph (2) there shall be substituted such other percentage as may be specified in the order.
