Abstract

This Regulation, consisting of 104 Sections, divided into 13 Parts and completed by two Schedules aims at Local Land Services is to make and levy the following rates for each year: a) a general rate on all rateable land, b) an animal health rate. The rates may be made in the previous year but must be made by 31 March of the year to which they relate. Under clause 25, the Minister may extend the time within which the rates may be made. Local Land Services may make and levy one or more special purpose rates for any year on any land within a district if Local Land Services considers it is necessary to do so. A general rate, or a special purpose rate (if any), for rateable land is to consist of: a) a base amount for each holding of rateable land (determined by Local Land Services), and b) an amount payable for each stock unit based on the total notional carrying capacity of rateable land in the district or for each constituent part of the district. An animal health rate for rateable land is to consist of: a) a base amount for each holding of rateable land (determined by Local Land Services), and b) an amount payable for each stock unit based on the total notional carrying capacity of rateable land in the district, or for each constituent part of the district, for which the annual returns lodged in the year preceding the year in which the rate is payable indicate that at least 50 stock units were kept on the land as at 30 June in the year.
