Issue of precepts
C142 Substituted precepts.
1
Where—
a
a precepting authority has issued a precept or precepts for a financial year (originally or by way of substitute); and
b
it shall as soon as reasonably practicable after that time issue a precept or precepts in substitution so as to give effect to those calculations.
C2C72
Any precept issued in substitution under subsection (1) above must be issued in accordance with section 40 or (as the case may be) section 41 above, but subsection (5) of section 40 and subsection (4) of section 41 shall be ignored for this purpose.
3
Where a precepting authority issues a precept in substitution (a new precept) anything paid to it by reference to the precept for which it is substituted (the old precept) shall be treated as paid by reference to the new precept.
4
If the amount stated in the old precept exceeds that of the new precept, the following shall apply as regards anything paid if it would not have been paid had the amount of the old precept been the same as that of the new precept—
a
it shall be repaid if the billing authority by whom it was paid so requires;
b
in any other case it shall (as the precepting authority determines) either be repaid or be credited against any subsequent liability of the billing authority in respect of any precept of the precepting authority.
5
Any reference in subsection (4) above to the amount stated in a precept shall be construed, in relation to a precept issued by a major precepting authority, as a reference to the amount stated in the precept in accordance with section 40(2)(b) above.
