Paragraph 5 Payments under demand notices

If a demand notice is served before or during the relevant period and, on the day on which the notice is served, it appears to the billing body that the person falls within the description as mentioned in paragraph 2(7) as regards the relevant property to which the notice relates, the notice shall require payment of an amount equal to the billing body’s estimate of the amount payable for the period.

In making an estimate under sub-paragraph (1), the billing body shall assume, as respects a period which falls after the issue of the notice, that the person will continue to fall within the description as mentioned in paragraph 2(7).

If a demand notice is served during the relevant period but sub-paragraph (1) does not apply, the notice shall require payment of the amount payable for the period up to the day on which the person last fell within the description as mentioned in paragraph 2(7), as regards the relevant property concerned.

If, after a notice is served to which sub-paragraph (3) applies, the person again falls within the description of person as mentioned in paragraph 2(7) in the relevant period, as regards the relevant property concerned, a further notice shall be served on that person requiring payment of the amount payable in relation to the relevant property for the period beginning with the day on which the person again falls within the description.

Where a further notice is issued under sub-paragraph (4), paragraphs 2(6) and (7), 5, 6 and 7 shall apply to the further notice with respect to the period referred to in sub-paragraph (4) as if it were a demand notice, and the person had not previously fallen within the description of person to be liable to BID levy specified in the BID arrangements.

If a demand notice is served after the end of the relevant period, it shall require payment of the amount payable for the period.
