15.—(1) The council of a county may, if they so think fit, decide to make the portion hereinafter mentioned of every primary allowance for any particular financial year by issuing to every person entitled to such primary allowance a credit note in two separate parts each of which declares such person to be entitled to credit for a sum equal to one moiety of the portion hereinafter mentioned of the primary allowance to which he is so entitled as against the rates payable by him to such council for the service of the said financial year,
|
|
| |
(2) The portion of a primary allowance referred to in the next preceding sub-section of this section as the portion hereinafter mentioned is so much of such primary allowance as bears to the whole of such primary allowance the same proportion as the rate ascertained and certified by the Minister in pursuance of paragraph (b) of sub-section (1) of section 5 of the Act of 1934-1935 in respect of such county bears to the primary allowance rate in such county.
|
|
| |
(3) Every person to whom a credit note is issued under this section by the council of a county shall—
|
|
| |
(a) on paying, on or before the 31st day of October in the relevant financial year, or such later date prior to the 1st day of February in such financial year, as such council shall fix, the first moiety of the rates as against which such credit note declares him to be entitled to credit together with any arrears of rates due by him to such council and delivering to such council the first part of such credit note, be entitled to be repaid by such council the sum for which such part of such credit note declares him to be entitled to credit as aforesaid, and
|
