Paragraph 7 Examination of charging scheduleI1

The examiner must consider whether the drafting requirements have been complied with.

In this paragraph and in paragraph 8, “the drafting requirements” means the requirements of this Schedule and CIL regulations so far as relevant to the drafting of a charging schedule.

CIL regulations must require a charging authority to allow anyone who makes representations about the draft of its charging schedule to be heard by the examiner; and the regulations may make provision about the timing of, and procedure for, the hearings.

CIL regulations may make provision for the examiner to reconsider a decision with a view to correcting errors (before or after approval of the charging schedule).
