Explanatory note

These Rules amend the Betting Levy Appeal Tribunal (England and Wales) Rules 1963 by making provision for those appeals which are brought under the Horserace Betting Levy Act 1981 against a notice of determination issued by the Horserace Betting Levy Board requiring payments on account of the levy payable under section 27 of the Betting, Gaming and Lotteries Act 1963.

Rules 2(d), 4 and 8 also make certain minor amendments to the 1963 Rules which are consequential upon changes that were made to the 1963 Act by sections 2 and 3 of the Horserace Betting Levy Act 1969.
