In paragraph (1)(b), the “deemed amount” in respect of any lands and heritages is the amount which would have been payable as rates in respect of those lands and heritages for the year ending 31st March 2017, had that amount been calculated on the basis of the rateable value of those lands and heritages on that date, including any additional amount of rates payable in terms of regulation 4 of the 2016 Regulations, but before applying any reliefs
