Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

Under paragraph 3(2) of Schedule 6 to the Local Government Finance Act 1988, the Secretary of State may by order provide in the case of non-domestic hereditaments to be shown in the central rating list for Wales that the normal rules of valuation for rating contained in paragraphs 2 to 2B of that Schedule are not to apply to such hereditaments. Instead their rateable values shall be such as are specified in the order or determined in accordance with prescribed rules. These powers are now vested in the National Assembly for Wales.

Water supply hereditaments occupied (or, if unoccupied, owned) by water undertakers named in Part 6 of the Schedule to the Central Rating List (Wales) Regulations 1999 are required by those Regulations to be shown in the central rating list for Wales. This Order

* provides that paragraphs 2 to 2B shall not apply in respect of such hereditaments,

* prescribes values for those hereditaments for the financial year 2000/01 and

* prescribes rules according to which their rateable values are to be determined in future years.

Article 4(1) revokes, with effect from 1st April 2000, the Water Undertakers (Rateable Values) Order 1994 in so far as it is applicable to Wales. These provisions shall however, continue to have effect for the purposes mentioned in article 4(2).
