SCHEDULE 1 . . .

Part I The Needs Element Apportionment 1 The amount of the needs element of rate support grants payable for any year, or such part thereof as may be determined by the Secretary of State, shall be apportioned to all regions, islands areas and districts on such basis as may be prescribed. 2 (1) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 1 above, the Secretary of State may, as respects any year, make provision for the apportionment of a prescribed part of the needs element among authorities incurring extraordinary expenses, by reference to so much of the estimated extraordinary expenses of each such authority as he may determine to be appropriate to be taken into account for the purposes of this paragraph. (2) In this paragraph “extraordinary expenses” means expenses of such categories and for such purposes as the Secretary of State, after consultation with such associations of local authorities as appear to him to be concerned, may determine should be supported by an apportionment under this paragraph; and in determining the amount of the estimated extraordinary expenses of an authority to be taken into account for any year, the Secretary of State— (a) shall have regard to the expected income of that authority for that year; and (b) may have regard to the extent by which the extraordinary expenses for a previous year exceeded or fell short of the estimated extraordinary expenses of the authority for that year. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2A 3 Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 1 above the Secretary of State may, as respects any year, make provision for the apportionment of the needs element or any part thereof among such classes of local authorities and on such basis as may be prescribed or of a prescribed amount of the needs element to such classes of authorities or to any such authority as may be prescribed. 3A Without prejudice to sections 5 and 5A of this Act or to the generality of paragraphs 1 and 3 above, the Secretary of State may, in prescribing a basis for apportionment under either of those paragraphs or in providing for apportionment under paragraph 3 above, have regard to the extent to which, in his opinion, either or both— (a) the actual expenditure of an individual authority has conformed (whether or not in the year for which the amount of the needs element is payable); (b) the estimated expenditure of such an authority conforms, with any guidance issued by him, before the start of the year to which the expenditure relates, as to what that expenditure ought to be. Adjustment of the needs element payable to local authorities 4 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 (1) The needs element for any year shall be subject to adjustment, in accordance with regulations made under this paragraph, in respect of expenditure to which this paragraph applies. (2) The Secretary of State may after consultation with such associations of local authorities as appear to him to be concerned by regulations subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament, provide for ascertaining the aggregate of such expenditure for the year in question of all local authorities, for apportioning the aggregate among such classes of local authority as may be specified in the regulations, and for giving effect to the apportionment by means of increases or decreases in the needs element payable to such authorities as may be so specified of such amounts as may be ascertained in accordance with the regulations. (3) This paragraph applies to such expenditure incurred as may be specified in regulations made under this paragraph. Part II The Resources Element 1 No payment in respect of the resources element shall be made to a local authority for any year unless in that year the product of a rate of one penny in the pound for the authority’s area is less than the standard penny rate product for the area. 2 Subject to . . . paragraph 3 below, the amount of the resources element payable to a local authority for any year shall be the product of— (a) the number of pence in the pound of the regional, general or district rate, as the case may be or, where the Secretary of State is, as regards the local authority, satisfied— (i) that they have fixed a rate higher than that required to provide the sufficient moneys mentioned in section 108(2) of the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973; or (ii) as is mentioned in subsection (1)(c), as read with subsection (1A), of section 5 of this Act, such lesser number of pence in the pound of that rate as the Secretary of State considers appropriate, and (b) the difference between the rate products mentioned in paragraph 1 above. 3 (1) If, after the amount of the resources element payable to a local authority for any year has been determined under paragraph 2 above— (a) the rateable values of lands and heritages in the authority’s area are reduced with effect from a date on or before that which is relevant for determining the product of a rate of one penny in the pound for the authority’s area for that year; and (b) the effect of that reduction is to produce a reduction in the said product which is of such a magnitude that, expressed as a percentage of the initially ascertained figure, it exceeds such percentage as may be specified for the purposes of this paragraph in regulations made by the Secretary of State; and (c) the authority by notice in writing request the Secretary of State to give a direction under this paragraph; the Secretary of State shall direct that the amount of the resources element payable to the authority for that year shall be recalculated in accordance with the following provisions of this paragraph and a further payment on account of that element shall be made to the local authority accordingly. (2) Where sub-paragraph (1) above applies— (a) the product of a rate of one penny in the pound for the local authority’s area for the year concerned shall be recalculated by treating the initially ascertained figure as reduced by the amount of the excess referred to in sub-paragraph (1)(b) above, (b) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . , paragraph 2 above shall have effect accordingly for the purpose of determining the amount which, on the basis of that recalculation, would have been payable to the authority for that year. (3) The further payment referred to in sub-paragraph (1) above shall be an amount equal to the difference between the amount previously paid to the authority for the year concerned on account of the resources element and the amount determined as mentioned in sub-paragraph (2)(b) above. (4) In this paragraph “the initially ascertained figure”, in relation to any year, means the product of a rate of one penny in the pound ascertained for the purposes of paragraph 2 above. (5) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Part III The Domestic Element 1 There shall for each year be prescribed, for the purposes of section 7 of this Act, an amount in the pound which in the opinion of the Secretary of State corresponds to the amount of the domestic element prescribed for that year in pursuance of section 2(4) of this Act and different amounts in the pound may be so prescribed for the areas of different rating authorities. 2 The amount of the domestic element payable to a rating authority for any year shall be determined in the manner provided by regulations made by the Secretary of State after consultation with such associations of local authorities as appear to him to be concerned. Any statutory instrument containing regulations made under this paragraph shall be subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament. 3 Any amounts payable to a rating authority in respect of the domestic element shall be taken into account for the purposes of this and any other Act as if they were payable on account of rates and in computing the product of a new penny rate; and any reduction made in pursuance of section 7 of this Act shall be disregarded in computing the product of a new penny rate for those purposes.

SCHEDULE 2 Valuation of Water Undertakings

Part I Determination of Cumulo Rateable Value 1 The Assessor of Public Undertakings (Scotland) (hereinafter referred to as “the Assessor”) shall for the year 1967-68 and each subsequent year determine in accordance with the following provisions of this and the next succeeding Part of this Schedule the cumulo rateable value of lands and heritages occupied for the purposes of a water undertaking, other than excepted premises, and shall enter such value in the valuation roll. In this paragraph “excepted premises” means dwelling-houses, or lands and heritages held by a local water authority under a lease for a period not exceeding twenty-one years. 2 The Secretary of State may by order make provision for determining the national average rateable value per unit per day calculated on the basis of the aggregate potential output of water, for a year specified in the order, of all the water undertakings whose values are for the year 1967-68 to be entered in the valuation roll referred to indetermined by the Assessor in accordance with paragraph 1 above, and such value so determined, or as modified under paragraph 3 below, is in this Schedule known as “the norm”. 3 Having regard to the changes in the rateable values of other lands and heritages, the Secretary of State shall keep the norm under review and may, in the year 1971-72 and each year of revaluation thereafter, by order make such adjustments in the provisions for determining the norm as appear to him to be appropriate. Any such order shall commence to have effect in the year in which it is made. 4 Not later than 31st Decembersuch date as may be prescribed in any calendar year, commencing with the year 1966, each local water authority shall as respects the previous year ascertain and certify to the Assessor, to the nearest ten units, the average number of units per day of the various categories of water described in sub-paragraphs (a) to (f) of paragraph 5 below. 5 For the year 1967-68 the cumulo rateable value of the lands and heritages occupied for the purposes of a water undertaking shall be the aggregate of the following— (a) the average number of units per day of potable water produced by the undertaking and supplied for use within the limits of supply of the local water authority carrying on the undertaking in the year 1965-66, multiplied by the norm; (b) one half of the average number of units per day of potable water supplied by them in bulk for distribution or use outwith the limits of supply of the local water authority carrying on the undertaking in the year 1965-66, multiplied by the norm; (c) one half of the average number of units per day of potable water supplied to them in bulk in the year 1965-66, multiplied by the norm; (d) the average number of units per day of non-potable water supplied by them in bulk for distribution or use outwith the limits of supply of the local water authority carrying on the undertaking in the year 1965-66, multiplied by such fraction of the norm as may be prescribed by order made by the Secretary of State; (e) the average number of units per day of non-potable water produced by them and supplied for use within the limits of supply of the local water authority carrying on the undertaking in the year 1965-66, multiplied (subject to paragraph 6 below) by such fraction of the norm as may be prescribed by order made by the Secretary of State; and (f) the average number of units per day of non-potable water supplied to them in bulk in the year 1965-66 multiplied by such fraction of the norm as may be prescribed by order made by the Secretary of State. 6 The fraction prescribed by order made under paragraph 5(e) above may, for the purpose of the application of that sub-paragraph to a particular water undertaking, be varied by the Assessor within such limits as may be specified in the order, if in the opinion of the Assessor exceptional circumstances exist in relation to that undertaking. 7 (1) The Assessor shall, in respect of each year of revaluation, determine anew the cumulo rateable value pertaining to each water undertaking and for that purpose shall apply the provisions of paragraph 5 above, so however that for the reference in that paragraph to the year 1967-68 there shall be substituted a reference to the year of revaluation, and for any reference in that paragraph to the year 1965-66 there shall be substituted a reference to the year last but one before the year of revaluation. (2) Where as respects any year (in this paragraph referred to as “the relevant year”) the average number of units per day supplied by a water undertaking, as certified under paragraph 4 above, exceeds or falls short of the average number of units so supplied and certified for the purposes of valuation for the base year by more than such percentage as may be prescribed by order made by the Secretary of State, the Assessor shall determine anew the cumulo rateable value pertaining to that undertaking and for that purpose shall apply the provisions of paragraph 5 above, so however that for the reference in that paragraph to the year 1967-68 there shall be substituted a reference to the year second succeeding the relevant year, and for any reference in that paragraph to the year 1965-66 there shall be substituted a reference to the relevant year. (3) In this paragraph “base year” means the year for which the valuation pertaining to a water undertaking was last determined by the Assessor. Part II Determination of Cumulo Rateable Value in Respect of Amalgamated Undertakings and of New Undertakings 8 Where an amalgamation of water undertakings takes place, the provisions of paragraphs 9 to 14 below shall apply for the purposes of determining the cumulo rateable value pertaining to the amalgamated undertaking. 9 For the year in which the amalgamation takes place the amalgamated water undertaking shall be treated as consisting of the separate water undertakings which comprise it, and accordingly the cumulo rateable values relating to the separate undertakings shall continue to apply. 10 For the first year succeeding that in which the amalgamation took place (in paragraph 14 below referred to for the purposes of this paragraph as “the valuation year”) the cumulo rateable value pertaining to the amalgamated water undertaking shall be determined under paragraph 5 above on the basis of an aggregation of the various figures for the separate undertakings comprising the amalgamated undertaking certified to the Assessor under paragraph 4 above in respect of the year prior to that in which the amalgamation took place (in paragraph 14 below referred to for the purposes of this paragraph as “the base year”). 11 Where the amalgamated water undertaking has been in existence for less than two complete years then for the second year succeeding that in which the amalgamation took place (in paragraph 14 below referred to for the purposes of this paragraph as “the valuation year”) the cumulo rateable value pertaining to the water undertaking shall be determined under paragraph 5 above on the basis of an aggregation of the various figures for the separate undertakings comprising the amalgamated undertaking and the various figures for the amalgamated undertaking certified to the Assessor under paragraph 4 above in respect of the year in which the amalgamation took place (in paragraph 14 below referred to for the purposes of this paragraph as “the base year”). 12 Where an amalgamation takes place which involves the division of an existing water undertaking into separate parts the cumulo rateable value pertaining to each part shall, for the years referred to in paragraphs 9 to 11 above, be determined in such manner as may be directed by the Secretary of State, and in those paragraphs any reference to a separate undertaking shall be construed as including a reference to the part comprised in the amalgamated undertaking. 13 Where the amalgamated water undertaking has been in existence for two complete years then for the second year succeeding that in which the amalgamation took place (in paragraph 14 below referred to for the purposes of this paragraph as “the valuation year”) the cumulo rateable value pertaining to the water undertaking shall be determined under paragraph 5 above on the basis of the figures for that undertaking certified to the Assessor under paragraph 4 above in respect of the year in which the amalgamation took place (in paragraph 14 below referred to for the purposes of this paragraph as “the base year”). 14 For the purposes of paragraphs 10, 11 and 13 above paragraph 5 above shall apply as if for the reference to the year 1967-68 there were substituted a reference to the valuation year and for the references to the year 1965-66 there were substituted references to the base year. 15 (1) No rateable value shall be attributable to any new water undertaking until the year (in this paragraph referred to as “the valuation year”) second succeeding that in which it commences to supply water to consumers, and accordingly for the purposes of this paragraph paragraph 5 above shall apply as if for the reference to the year 1967-68 there were substituted a reference to the valuation year and for the references to the year 1965-66 there were substituted references to the year in which the undertaking so commences to supply water. (2) This paragraph applies only to new water undertakings and accordingly does not apply to a part of an undertaking which consists in an addition to an existing water undertaking. Part III Determination of Rateable Value 16 In the case of a water undertaking wholly situated within a rating area the cumulo rateable value for the year 1967-68 or any subsequent year, as ascertained under the foregoing provisions of this Schedule, shall be taken to be the rateable value of that undertaking for that year and the Assessor shall give a direction under section 5 of the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1975 to the local assessor to enter that value in the valuation roll. 17 In the case of a water undertaking situated within more than one rating area the Assessor shall for the year 1967-68 and each subsequent year determine in accordance with the following provisions of this Part of this Schedule the rateable value attributable to a water undertaking in respect of such parts of the undertaking as are situated within such an area, and shall give a direction under section 5 of the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1975 to the local assessor to enter that value in the valuation roll. 18 For the purposes of this Part of this Schedule the capital works of each water undertaking shall be divided into productive and distributive parts in such manner as may be prescribed by order made by the Secretary of State. 19 Not later than 31st Decembersuch date as may be prescribed in any calendar year, commencing with the year 1966, each water authority shall ascertain and certify to the Assessor— (a) the capital expenditure in respect of the productive part of the undertaking in each of the rating areas . . . in which the undertaking is situated; and (b) the income for the previous year from public water rate, domestic water rate and water charges derived from each rating area in which any portion of the distributive part of the undertaking is situated. 20 The cumulo rateable value of each water undertaking, as ascertained under the foregoing provisions of this Schedule, shall then be apportioned between the productive and distributive parts of the undertaking in such proportion as the Secretary of State may, in such manner as he thinks fit, by order determine. 21 (1) The amount of the cumulo rateable value apportioned to the productive part of the undertaking shall be apportioned among the rating areas in which any portion of that part is situated in such proportion as the capital cost of that portion bears to the capital cost of that part. (2) The amount of the cumulo rateable value apportioned to the distributive part of the undertaking shall be apportioned among the rating areas in which any portion of that part is situated in such proportion as the aggregate income from the public water rate, domestic water rate and water charges derived from a rating area bears to such income derived from the whole of the area in which the distributive part of the undertaking is situated. (3) The aggregate of the amounts duly apportioned as aforesaid in respect of each water undertaking shall then be taken to be the rateable value attributable to that undertaking in the rating area concerned. 22 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 23 The Assessor shall no longer be required under section 23 of the Lands Valuation (Scotland) Act 1854 to apportion the cumulo rateable value of a water undertaking as between the various parishes in which the undertaking is situated or to enter such apportioned value in the valuation roll. Part IV Miscellaneous Transitional Provisions 24 The Secretary of State may, as respects any year from 1967-68 to 1971-72, by order provide for the modification of the cumulo rateable values pertaining to all or any water undertakings. Orders 25 Before making an order under this Schedule the Secretary of State shall consult with such associations of local authorities or other bodies or associations as appear to him to be concerned. 26 Any statutory instrument containing an order made under paragraph 2 or 3 of this Schedule shall not have effect unless approved by a resolution of the Commons House of Parliament, and any statutory instrument containing an order made under any other provision of this Schedule shall be subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament. Interpretation 27 For the purposes of this Schedule— . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . “limits of supply” has the meaning assigned to it by section 5(3) of the Water (Scotland) Act 1946; “public water rate” and “domestic water rate” have the meanings assigned to them by section 1 of the Water (Scotland) Act 1949; “rating area” means the area of an islands council or of a district council; . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . “unit” means a thousand gallons of water; “ valuation roll ” means the roll made up by the Assessor under the Valuation Acts; references to the supply of water in bulk are references to a supply taken by a local water authority for augmenting or constituting the supply to be given by them.
