(1)

This paragraph applies for the purposes of calculating the relevant population of parts of a charging authority’s area where that area lies partly within and partly without the Metropolitan Police District^f1.

(2)

Except where sub-paragraph (3) below applies, where the part of the area of which the relevant population needs to be found is the entire part of the authority’s area lying within or, as the case may be, without the Metropolitan Police District the relevant population of that entire part shall be calcualted by applying the appropriate formula in paragraph 1 or (where the circumstances described in paragraph 2 apply) paragraph 2 of this Schedule, where—

(a)

R has the same meaning as in paragraph 1 above; and

(b)

P, PS, W and WS have the same meanings as in paragraph 1 above with the modification that references in sub-paragraphs (b) and (c) of that paragraph to the relevant day shall be construed as references to 1st December in the preceding year.

(c)

PJ, PJS, PL and PLS have the same meanings as in paragraphs 2(1)(b) to (e) above, and WJ, WJS, WL and WLS have the same meanings as in paragraph 2(1)(f) above with the modifications that references in those paragraphs to the relevant day shall be construed as references to 1st December in the preceding year.

(3)

Where under paragraph 4(4) of Schedule 12A to the Act the Secretary of State notifies a charging authority of what he calculates as the relevant population of its area for the year and, at the same time, notifies the authority—

(a)

that his calculation of the relevant population of its area has been made in accordance with paragraph 4 of the Population Report (calculation using information from the Registrar General and other sources), and

(b)

of his estimates (used for the purposes of the calculations in Part I of Annex E to the Distribution Report) of the proportions which the populations of the parts of the authority’s area lying respectively within and without the Metropolitan Police District bear to the population of the whole of the authority’s area,

the relevant population of the entire part of the authority’s area lying within or, as the case may be, without the Metropolitan Police District shall be calculated in accordance with the formula—

R \times F

where—

R has the same meaning as in paragraph 1 above; and
F is the Secretary of State’s estimate notified to the authority as described in this sub-paragraph of the proportion applicable to the part of the area lying within or, as the case may be, without the Metropolitan Police District.

(4)

Where the relevant population of part of an authority’s area is to be calculated and that part—

(i)

lies wholly within (or wholly without) the Metropolitan Police District; but

(ii)

does not constitute the whole of the area of the authority within (or without) the Metropolitan Police District,

the population of that part shall be calculated by applying the appropriate formula in paragraph 1 or (where the circumstances described in paragraph 2 apply) paragraph 2 of this Schedule, where—

(a)

R is the population figure (found in accordance with sub-paragraph (5) below) of the entire part of the authority’s area lying within or, as the case may be, without the Metropolitan Police District;

(b)

P and PS have the same meanings as in paragraph 1 above;

(c)

PJ, PJS, PL and PLS have the same meanings as in paragraph 2 above;

(d)

W and WS have the same meanings as in paragraph 1(d) above and WJ, WL, WJS and WLS have the same meanings as in paragraph 2(1)(f) above; with the modification that references in those paragraphs to the authority’s area as a whole shall be construed as references to the entire part falling within or, as the case may be without the Metropolitan Police District.

(5)

For the purposes of sub-paragraph (4)(a) above—

(a)

the population figure of the part of the authority’s area lying within the Metropolitan Police District is the number shown against the name of that authority in the third column of the table in the third paragraph of Part I of Annex E to the Distribution Report; and

(b)

the population figure of the part of the authority’s area lying without the Metropolitan Police District is the relevant population of the whole of the authority’s area last calculated by the Secretary of State under paragraph 4 of Schedule 12A to the Act, less the population figure of the part of the authority’s area lying within the Metropolitan Police District, found in accordance with sub-paragraph (5)(a) above.

(6)

Where the part of the authority’s area of which the relevant population needs to be found comprises some part of the authority’s area lying within and some part of the authority’s area lying without the Metropolitan Police District, the relevant population of that part is the sum of the relevant populations of the parts falling within and without the Metropolitan Police District calculated separately in accordance with sub-paragraph (4) above.
