Certificates for changes in rateable value: 1st April 2010 E+W

14.—(1) This regulation applies where the appropriate valuation officer is of the view (whether following a request from the ratepayer in relation to the hereditament in question or not) that the rateable value shown in a local list in relation to a hereditament for 1st April 2010 is inaccurate on any grounds other than solely on the grounds of a material change of circumstances which occurred on that day.

(3) Where the appropriate valuation officer has certified a rateable value in accordance with paragraph (2), the provisions of these Regulations shall have effect, as regards the days referred to in paragraph (4), (5)(a) or (5)(b), as the case may be, as if that rateable value had been the value shown in a local or the central list for 1st April 2010.

(4) Where the appropriate valuation officer alters the list for the purpose of correcting the inaccuracy mentioned in paragraph (1) or for that purpose combined with other purposes, the days are that on which the alteration has effect and any subsequent relevant day.

(5) Where the appropriate valuation officer has not altered the list for the purpose of correcting the inaccuracy mentioned in paragraph (1)—

(a) if a request by the ratepayer has been made before a certificate under paragraph (2) is issued, the days are that on which the certificate is requested and any subsequent relevant day;
