# The Non-Domestic Rates and Community Charges (Timetable) (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 1989, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations prescribe the date, in relation to the financial year 1990-91 and each subsequent financial year, before which a local authority is required to determine their standard community charge multiplier or multipliers. The date prescribed is 29th January in the financial year preceding each of these years.
These Regulations also revoke the entry in Schedule 2 to the Non-Domestic Rates and Community Charges (Timetable) (Scotland) Regulations 1987 (S.I. 1987/2167) which prescribes 29th January as the date before which a local authority was required to determine their standard community charge multiplier. This entry is superseded because the power under which it was made, namely section 10(7) of the Abolition of Domestic Rates Etc. (Scotland) Act 1987, has been amended and substituted by amendments to section 10, made by section 142 of the Local Government and Housing Act 1989, under which these Regulations are made.
