Regulation 4 amends regulation 3 of the principal regulations so as to include, in the list of authorities to which those regulations apply, the Tees Valley Combined Authority and the West Midlands Combined Authority. Regulation 5 inserts new regulation 7C into the principal regulations to make special provision for levies issued by the Tees Valley Combined Authority and makes consequential amendments to regulation 7.
