Regulations about paymentsE+W

[F19(1)The Secretary of State may by regulations make provision requiring billing authorities in England to make payments for a year to major precepting authorities in England.

(2)The regulations must provide that a billing authority is not required to make a payment for a year unless the local government finance report for the year has been approved by resolution of the House of Commons.

(3)The regulations may, in particular, make provision as to—

(a)the billing authorities that are required to make payments under the regulations;

(b)the major precepting authorities that are entitled to receive payments under the regulations;

(c)the amounts of the payments that are required to be made.

(4)The regulations may, in particular, make provision for the amount of a payment to be made by a billing authority for a year to be such proportion of its non-domestic rating income for the year as is specified in or determined in accordance with the regulations.

(5)For the purposes of this paragraph, an authority’s “non-domestic rating income” has the meaning given by the regulations.

(6)The regulations may, in particular, define that term by reference to the total which, if the authority acted diligently, would be payable to it in respect of the year under sections 43 and 45, subject to such adjustments as may be specified in the regulations.

(7)The regulations may, in particular, make provision for adjustments by reference to changes to the calculation of the amount of a billing authority’s non-domestic rating income for an earlier year but not taken into account in that calculation.

(8)The regulations may not have the effect that the total amount payable by a billing authority under the regulations for a year exceeds the billing authority’s local share of its non-domestic rating income for a year.]
