(b) the report has been laid before the Assembly.
(2) If the report is approved by resolution of the Assembly, the distributable amount for the year shall be distributed among and paid to receiving authorities in accordance with this paragraph and paragraph 12 below.
(3) As soon as is reasonably practicable after the report has been so approved, the Welsh Ministers shall calculate what sum falls to be paid to each receiving authority as its share of the distributable amount for the year in accordance with the basis of distribution specified in the report as so approved.
(4) Subject to sub-paragraph (5) below, after making a calculation under sub-paragraph (3) above, the Welsh Ministers may, at any time before the end of the financial year following the financial year to which the report relates, make one further calculation of what sum falls to be paid to each receiving authority as its share of the distributable amount for the year in accordance with the basis of distribution so specified.
(5) The power to make a calculation under sub-paragraph (4) above shall not be exercisable after the approval by resolution of the Assembly of any amending report made under paragraph 13 below in relation to the local government finance report.
(6) If the Welsh Ministers decide that they will leave out of account information received by them after a particular date in making a calculation under sub-paragraph (3) or (4) above, the calculation shall be made accordingly, and they may decide different dates for different kinds of information.
(7) Sub-paragraph (6) above applies only if the Welsh Ministers inform each receiving authority in writing of their decision and of the date (or the dates and kinds of information) concerned; but they may do this at any time before the calculation is made under this paragraph (whether before or after the distributable amount for the year is calculated under paragraph 9 above).
(8) As soon as is reasonably practicable after making a calculation under sub-paragraph (3) or (4) above, the Welsh Ministers shall inform each receiving authority of the sum they calculate falls to be paid to it as its share of the distributable amount for the year.
