Valuation on union of or annexation by council

13DG. Valuation on union of or annexation by council



(1) If a council is one formed by union, the last valuations in force for the
united councils are to be treated as one valuation made by the council formed
by the union.

(2) If a council has had annexed to its municipal district part of a former
municipal district, the last valuation in force for that part is to be treated
as part of the valuation for the council, but this does not affect the time
within which the council must make the next valuation of all rateable land in
its municipal district.

(3) If a council has had annexed to its municipal district any area which is
not part of a former municipal district-

   (a)  the council must, immediately after the annexation, make a valuation
        of all rateable land in that area (either separately or together with
        a valuation for the rateable land in the rest of the council's
        municipal district); and

   (b)  the valuation for that annexed area, if made separately, is to be
        treated together with any valuation for the rest of the council's
        municipal district, as the valuation for the council; and

   (c)  paragraphs (a) and (b) do not affect the time within which the council
        must make the next valuation of all rateable land in its municipal
        district.
