(1) Subject to subsection (5), on and after 1 January 1973, the Valuer-General is not required--
(a) to determine the improved value of any land,
(b) to determine the assessed annual value of any land except where the Valuer-General is requested, by instrument in writing, to do so by a rating or taxing authority, or
(c) to record in the Register of Land Values the nature of the improvements on any land.
(2) Subsection (1) shall not operate so as to prevent the Valuer-General, if he or she decides to do so, from determining the assessed annual value of any land or from recording in the Register of Land Values the nature of the improvements on any land.
(2A) The Valuer-General is not required, in relation to a rating or taxing authority--
(a) to make any valuation, or to determine any allowance or apportionment factor, under this Act, or
(b) to comply with any other provision of this Act or any other law with respect to such a valuation, allowance, apportionment factor or rating base factor,
if it appears to the Valuer-General, at the time at which the valuation, allowance, apportionment factor or rating base factor would otherwise be made or determined, that the valuation, allowance, apportionment factor or rating base factor would not, at any time, be used for the purpose of any rate or tax which may be made by or payable to the authority.
(3) The omission to include in the Register of Land Values or to give in a valuation list the assessed annual value of any land in respect of which a request is made pursuant to subsection (1) (b) by a rating or taxing authority or a valuation, allowance, apportionment factor or rating base factor to which subsection (2A) applies shall not affect or invalidate the Register of Land Values or the valuation list.
(4) This section shall have effect notwithstanding any provision of this Act or of any other law.
(5) Nothing in or done under this section shall affect the operation of section 19B.
