The Council Tax (Alteration of Lists and Appeals) Regulations 1993

Withdrawal of proposals

11.—(1) The proposer may, subject to paragraph (2), withdraw the proposal by notice in writing served on the listing officer.

(2) A proposal may not be withdrawn where the proposer made it in his capacity as taxpayer but is no longer a taxpayer in respect of the dwelling concerned, unless the taxpayer at the date of the withdrawal has agreed in writing; and where at the date of the withdrawal more than one person is a taxpayer, the agreement of one of them shall, for this purpose, be treated as the agreement of all of them.

(3) Where—

(a) within the period of three months beginning on the day on which a proposal is served on the listing officer an interested person serves notice in writing on the listing officer that he wishes to be a party to proceedings in respect of that proposal; and

(b) after service of such a notice the proposal is withdrawn in accordance with this regulation,

the listing officer shall serve notice of the withdrawal on that person.

(4) Where within the period of six weeks beginning on the day on which a notice under paragraph (3) is served on him an interested person serves notice in writing on the listing officer that he is aggrieved by the withdrawal of the proposal—

(a) the notice shall, if that person would at the date of the proposal himself have been competent to make that proposal, be treated for the purposes of the following provisions of these Regulations as if it had been a proposal in the same terms made on the day on which the notice was served;

(b) any resulting alteration shall have effect from the day which would have been applicable had there been no withdrawal under this regulation.
