In relation to an area of communal space for residents which falls within regulation 11(1)(a), the relevant percentage is 100%.

In relation to an area of communal space for residents which falls within regulation 11(1)(b), the relevant percentage is determined as follows—

• Step 1

  Calculate in relation to the area of communal space for residents—

     the gross internal area of each of the relevant residential units which falls within regulation 11(1)(b)(i), and

  2. (b)

     the total of the amounts given by paragraph (a).

• Step 2

  Calculate in relation to the area of communal space for residents—

  1. (a)

     the gross internal area of each of the other units which falls within regulation 11(1)(b)(ii), and

  2. (b)

     the total of the amounts given by paragraph (a).

• Step 3

  Apply the following formula—

  $$P (\%) = \left(\frac{U}{U+O}\right) \times 100$$

  where—

  1. (a)

     P is the relevant percentage,

  2. (b)

     U is the amount given by paragraph (b) of Step 1, and

  3. (c)
