Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Central Rating List (England) Regulations 2005 (“the Central Rating List Regulations”).

The Central Rating List Regulations designate persons and prescribe in relation to those persons descriptions of non-domestic hereditament, under section 53(1) of the Local Government Finance Act 1988, with a view to securing the central rating en bloc of those hereditaments.

The Schedule to the Central Rating List Regulations lists all designated persons and sets out the description of hereditament prescribed in relation to each of them. Regulation 2(2) of these Regulations makes amendments to Part 12 of the Schedule that deals with long-distance pipe-line hereditaments to reflect a change in ownership of a pipe-line. As a result hereditaments of the description set out in column 2 of Part 12 of the Schedule occupied or, if unoccupied, owned by the named company will be shown on the central rating list.

Section 53(4) of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 provides that amending regulations altering the designated person in relation to a description of hereditament may have effect from a date earlier than that on which the amending regulations are made. Pursuant to that power, the substitution made by regulation 2(2) has effect from the date on which ownership of the relevant pipe-line transferred.

A full impact assessment had not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
