Michael Heseltine

Secretary of State for the Environment

6th December 1990

Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

Under Part II of Schedule 8 to the Local Government Finance Act 1988, charging authorities are required to pay amounts (called non-domestic rating contributions) to the Secretary of State. Provisional amounts are paid during the financial year, final calculations and payments being made after the year ends. These Regulations amend the rules for the calculation of payments contained in the Non-Domestic Rating Contributions (England) Regulations 1989 (“the 1989 Regulations”).

Minor changes are made to the rules for the final calculation of a non-domestic rating contribution set out in Schedule 1 to the 1989 Regulations, including fresh provision for a deduction to be made where authorities have entered into agreements to defer recovery of non-domestic rates. New figures are substituted for financial years beginning on or after 1st April 1991 to replace those set out in Part II of Schedule 1 (cost factors).

A new Schedule 2 to the 1989 Regulations is substituted for the existing Schedule. The Schedule sets out the assumptions which are to be made when calculating the provisional amount of a non-domestic rating contribution. Changes made take account of local government boundary changes, and require certain assumptions to be made when an area ceases to be an enterprise zone and in relation to the cessation on 1st April 1991 of Crown exemption from rating for certain health service bodies.
