The Non-Domestic Rating (Small Business Relief) (Wales) Order 2006
This Order comes into force on 1 April 2007 and applies to Wales. It provides for a small business rate relief scheme for Wales following the coming into force of section 63 of the Local Government Act 2003. That section makes amendments to sections 42A, 43 and 47 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 (“the 1988 Act”) (such that the rural rate relief scheme for Wales lapses but is saved by this Order in relation to financial years ending on or before 31 March 2007).
