(5AA) C is the consumer prices index for September of the financial year which precedes that preceding the year concerned.]

[F7 (5B) But where the base month for the consumer prices index for September of the financial year which precedes that preceding the year concerned (the first year) differs from that for the index for September of the year which precedes the year concerned (the second year), C is the figure which the Welsh Ministers calculate would have been the consumer prices index for September of the first year if the base month for that index had been the same as the base month for the index for September of the second year.]

[F8 (6) D is the number of whole pounds in F9 ... the [F10 Welsh Ministers'] estimate of the total of the appropriate rateable values of all appropriate hereditaments, where—

[F15 (9A) References in sub-paragraphs [F16 (5A) to (5B)] to the consumer prices index are to the general index of consumer prices (for all items) published by the Statistics Board or, if that index is not published for a relevant month, any substituted index or index figures published by the Board.

(9B) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (5B) the base month for the [F17 consumer] prices index for September of a particular year is the month for which the consumer prices index is taken to be 100 and by reference to which the index for the September in question is calculated.]

(10) Estimates under sub-paragraphs (6) and (7) above shall be made on the basis of information available F18 ... [F19 to the Welsh Ministers on such date as they determine].
