HL Deb 14 December 1925 vol 62 cc1432-3

9. The assessment committee shall, within seven days after the conclusion of their revision of the draft list, send to the rating authority and to the county valuation committee a notice containing particulars of any alterations, insertions and corrections made by the committee on the revision otherwise than in determining an objection.

Amendment moved— Page 75, line 8, after ("objector") insert ("and").—(The Marquess of Salisbury.)

THE MARQUESS OF SALISBURY moved to leave out paragraph 9. The noble Marquess said: It is unnecessary to send the lists to the county valuation committee, unless they send for them. The rating authority already has the list.

Amendment moved— Page 75, line 31, leave out paragraph 9.—(The Marquess of Salisbury.) Page 65,

Fourth Schedule, as amended, agreed to.

Fifth Schedule [Appeals to Quarter Sessions]:

THE MARQUESS OF SALISBURY
