(3)This section shall not apply to an advance made in implement of a contract constituted by an offer of advance made before that date and an unqualified acceptance of that offer thereafter.
(4)Subject to section 220, a local authority shall, in respect of their variable interest home loans, charge a rate of interest which shall be equal to whichever is the higher of the following—
(a)the standard rate for the time being, as declared by the Secretary of State in accordance with subsection (5);
(b)the locally determined rate calculated in accordance with subsection (6).
(5)In considering what rate to declare as the standard rate for the purposes of subsection (4), the Secretary of State shall take into account interest rates charged by building societies in the United Kingdom and any movement in those rates.
(6)The locally determined rate for the purposes of this section shall be the rate which is necessary to service loan charges on money which is to be applied to making variable interest home loans during the relevant period of six months (referred to in subsection (7)), together with the addition of one quarter per cent. to cover the administration cost of making and managing variable interest home loans.
(7)The locally determined rate, for the purposes of this section, shall be determined by each local authority for the period of 6 months not less than one month before the beginning of the relevant period.
(8)Nothing in this or the following two sections shall affect the operation of section 223(1)(b) (under which a part of certain loans may be free of interest for up to 5 years).
Modifications etc. (not altering text)
C1S. 219 excluded by Local Government Act 1988 (c. 9, SIF 81:1), s. 24(4)
(1)Where the declaration of a new standard rate or, as the case may be, the determination of a new locally determined rate, affects the rate of interest chargeable under section 219 by a local authority the authority shall, as soon as practicable after such declaration or determination, serve in respect of each of its variable interest home loans a notice on the borrower which shall, as from the appropriate day—
(a)vary the rate of interest payable by him; and
(b)where, as the result of the variation, the amount outstanding under the advance or security would increase if the periodic repayments were not increased, increase the amount of the periodic repayments to such an amount as will ensure that the said outstanding amount will not increase.
(2)In subsection (1), “the appropriate day” means such day as shall be specified in the notice, being—
(a)in the case of a new standard rate, a day not less than 2 weeks, nor more than 6 weeks, after service of the notice; and
(b)in the case of a new locally determined rate, the first day of the relevant period of 6 months.

(a)to charge an interest rate specified in the direction; and
(b)to vary the rate in accordance with the provisions of section 220.
