Local Government Act 1966

Notwithstanding anything in section 1(5) of this Act, payments made to the Greater London Council in respect of the needs element shall be made in aid of the expenditure of the Council chargeable on the area comprising the inner London boroughs and the City of London ; but the Council may make such adjustments between their accounts as they consider appropriate in consequence of the operation of paragraph 13 of this Schedule.

16

For the purposes of this Part of this Schedule the Inner and Middle Temples shall be treated as part of the City of London.

17

In this Part of this Schedule " population ", in relation to a local authority, means the estimated number of persons in the population of the area of the authority.

PART II — The resources element

Condition and amount of payment.

1

The resources element shall not be payable to a local authority for any year unless the product of a rate of one penny in the pound for the area of the authority for that year is less than the standard penny rate product for the area for that year.

2

The amount of the resources element payable to a local authority for any year shall, subject to paragraphs 10 and 11 of this Part of this Schedule, be the amount which bears to the expenditure of the authority for that year the same proportion as the difference between the rate products mentioned in paragraph 1 above bears to the standard penny rate product for the area of the authority for that year.

Calculation of standard penny rate product.

3

• (1) For the purposes of this Part of this Schedule, the standard penny rate product for an area for any year is the sum which bears to the product of a rate of one penny in the pound for that year for the whole of England and Wales the same proportion as the population of the area bears to the population of England and Wales ; but in ascertaining the standard penny rate product for a county or county borough the population of any county in the case of which the ratio of the population to the road-mileage of the county is less than seventy shall be increased by one half of the additional population needed in order that the population divided by the road-mileage should be seventy.

• (2) In this paragraph " population " means estimated population.

Calculation of expenditure.

4

In ascertaining the expenditure of any authority (other than the Greater London Council) for any year for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule, there shall be deducted from the amount which would be the amount of that expenditure apart from this paragraph the amount of any needs element payable to that authority for that year.

5

For the purposes of this Part of this Schedule, the expenditure of a county council or the Greater London Council shall be so much of the total expenditure of the council for the year in question for general county or general London purposes as would have fallen to be met out of rates levied within the county or Greater London if no resources element were payable.

6

For the purposes of this Part of this Schedule, the expenditure of a local authority other than a county council and the Greater London Council shall be so much of the total expenditure of the authority for the year in question as would have fallen to be met out of rates levied within the area of the authority if no resources element were payable and, in the case of a local authority in Greater London, section 66 of the London Government Act 1963 (which provides for schemes for equalising rates) had not been passed, excluding the cost of the collection of rates as ascertained in accordance with rules under section 25 of this Act.

7

Any expenditure in pursuance of section 25 of the Land Drainage Act 1961 (which enables rating authorities to pay to drainage boards the aggregate amounts of the drainage rate for so much of their area as is within a drainage district) shall be disregarded for the purposes of paragraph 6 above.

8

For the purposes of this Part of this Schedule, sums payable by a local authority by virtue of a precept issued by a county council or the Greater London Council, in so far as payable in respect of expenditure of the council for general county or general London purposes, shall not be treated as expenditure of the authority paying those sums.

9

For the purposes of this Part of this Schedule, the amount of the expenditure of an authority falling to be met out of rates shall be ascertained without regard to any reduction of grant made under section 4 of this Act.

Adjustment of resources element.

10

Paragraph 12 of Part I of this Schedule shall apply in relation to the resources element as it applies in relation to the needs element.

11

• (1) If the Minister is satisfied, as respects the councils of county districts in any county, that the part of their expenditure, as ascertained for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule, which is attributable to expenditure of the county council for special county purposes bears such a proportion to the whole of their expenditure as so ascertained that the provisions of this Act relating to the resources element will not apply equitably in relation to the county without modification, the Minister may make a scheme for applying those provisions with such modifications as may be specified in the scheme.

• (2) A scheme under this paragraph may be varied or revoked by a subsequent scheme made by the Minister.

PART III — The domestic element

1

There shall for each year be prescribed, for the purposes of section 6 of this Act, an amount in the pound which in the opinion of the Minister corresponds to the amount of the domestic element prescribed for that year in pursuance of section 1(4) of this Act.

2

The amount of the domestic element payable to a local authority for any year shall be determined in the manner provided by regulations made by the Minister after consultation with such associations of local authorities as appear to him to be concerned and with any local authority with whom consultation appears to him to be desirable.

3

For the purposes of the provisions of this Act relating to the domestic element, the Sub-Treasurer of the Inner Temple and the Under-Treasurer of the Middle Temple shall be deemed to be local authorities.

4

Any amounts payable to a local authority in respect of the domestic element shall be taken into account for the purposes of this and any other Act as if they were payable on account of rates.

SCHEDULE 2

Determination of rateable values.

1

• (1) Subject to the provisions of this Schedule, the rateable value of a hereditament for the purposes of section 21 of this Act shall be the rateable value ascribed to it in the valuation list in force for the area in which the hereditament is situated or, if the hereditament is not included in that list, the first rateable value subsequently ascribed to the hereditament in a valuation list in force for that area.

• (2) If the relevant period of vacancy in respect of a hereditament begins before and ends at or after the time when a new valuation list comes into force for the area of the rating authority and the hereditament is not included in the previous valuation list, then—

• (a) the valuation officer shall, at the request of the rating authority or the owner of the hereditament, certify to that authority the rateable value which in his opinion would (in accordance with section 17 of this Act) have been ascribed to the hereditament if it had been included in the previous list by alteration of that list;

• (b) the provisions of Part III of the Local Government Act 1948 shall apply in relation to any such certificate as if it were a proposal by the valuation officer for the alteration of a valuation list; and

• (c) for the purposes of the liability of the owner to be rated in respect of so much of the relevant period of vacancy as fell before the coming into force of the new valuation list, the rateable value of the hereditament shall be taken to be the value as settled in pursuance of the certificate and any proceedings consequent thereon.

• (3) Where two or more persons are or have been severally entitled to possession of different parts of any property which is included in a valuation list as a hereditament or to which a certificate under sub-paragraph (2) of this paragraph relates and any of those parts—

• (a) consists of property suitable for inclusion in a valuation list as a separate hereditament; and

• (b) would be a relevant hereditament if it were included in a valuation list as a separate hereditament,

the part may be treated as a relevant hereditament for the purposes of sections 21 and 22 of this Act and this Schedule and the valuation officer may give such directions as he thinks fit for apportioning between those parts the rateable value ascribed to the property by the list or certificate aforesaid.

2

• (1) A rating authority may request the valuation officer to make a proposal for including in the valuation list in force for their area any unoccupied building in their area (together with any garden, yard, court or other land intended for use for the purposes of the building) which in their opinion is, or when completed will be, a newly erected dwelling-house; and if the valuation officer thinks fit to comply with the request he may make a proposal for including the building (together with any such garden, yard, court or other land as aforesaid) as a dwelling-house in that list and for ascribing to it in the list such values as he considers are appropriate or will be appropriate when the building is completed.

• (2) Where such a request is made by a rating authority and the valuation officer serves notice in writing by post or otherwise on the authority stating that he does not propose to comply with the request, the rating authority may, if they think fit, within the period of twenty-eight days beginning with the date of service of the notice, make a proposal for including the building and any other land to which the request relates as a dwelling-house in the list aforesaid and for ascribing to it in the list such values as the authority consider are appropriate or will be appropriate when the building is completed.

• (3) Where a new valuation list is prepared for any area, the valuation officer shall include in the list as transmitted to the rating authority—

• (a) any dwelling-house included in the current list for that area in pursuance of a proposal under sub-paragraph (1) or (2) of this paragraph ; and

• (b) any building (with or without other land) in respect of which a proposal for its inclusion in the current list as a dwelling-house has been made by him under the said sub-paragraph (1) and has not been settled,

and, if any such proposal is made by him after the new list has been so transmitted, shall cause that list to be altered so as to include the building (with or without other land) as a dwelling-house in the new list.

• (4) Where a newly erected dwelling-house is first occupied after its completion and a rateable value has, in pursuance of the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, previously been ascribed to it in the valuation list currently in force for the area in which it is situated, any different rateable value subsequently ascribed to it in that list and which, apart from this sub-paragraph, would have effect from the date when the dwelling-house is first occupied as aforesaid shall be deemed to have effect from the date on which the current list came into force or the date from which the previous rateable value had effect, whichever is the later.

Completion of newly erected or altered buildings.

3

For the purposes of section 21 of this Act, a newly erected building which is not occupied on the date determined under the following provisions of this Schedule as the date on which the erection of the building is completed shall be deemed to become unoccupied on that date.

• (2) If a person on whom a completion notice is served agrees in writing with the authority by whom the notice was served that the erection of the building to which the notice relates shall be treated for the purposes of this Schedule as completed on a day specified by the agreement, it shall be treated for those purposes as completed on that day and the notice shall be deemed to be withdrawn.

• (3) Where a rating authority has served a completion notice on any person, the authority may withdraw the notice by a subsequent notice served on that person; and a notice under this sub-paragraph may be served—

• (a) at any time before an appeal in pursuance of sub-paragraph (4) of this paragraph is brought against the completion notice ; and

• (b) with the agreement of the person aforesaid, at any time thereafter and before the appeal is determined.

• (4) A person on whom a completion notice is served may, during the period of twenty-one days beginning with the date of service of the notice, appeal to the county court against the notice on the ground that the erection of the building to which the notice relates has not been or, as the case may be, cannot reasonably be expected to be completed by the date specified by the notice.

• (5) If a completion notice served in respect of a building is not withdrawn and no appeal in pursuance of sub-paragraph (4) of this paragraph is brought against the notice or such an appeal is abandoned or dismissed, the erection of the building shall be treated for the purposes of this Schedule as completed on the date specified by the notice ; and if the notice is not withdrawn and such an appeal is brought and is not abandoned or dismissed, the erection of the building shall be treated for those purposes as completed on such date as the court shall determine.

5

In the case of a building to which work remains to be done of a kind which is customarily done to a building of the type in question after the erection of the building has been substantially completed, it shall be assumed for the purposes of paragraph 4 of this Schedule that the erection of the building has been or can reasonably be expected to be completed at the expiration of such period beginning with the date of its completion apart from the work as is reasonably required for carrying out the work.

6

Where by reason of the structural alteration of any building a relevant hereditament becomes or becomes part of a different hereditament or different hereditaments, the relevant hereditament shall be deemed for the purposes of this Schedule to have ceased to exist on the date (as determined in pursuance of the foregoing provisions of this Schedule) of the completion of the structural alteration and, in particular, to have been omitted on that date from any valuation list in which it is then included ; but nothing in this paragraph shall be construed as affecting any liability for rates under section 21 of this Act in respect of the hereditament for any period before that date.
