EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Climate Change Levy (General) Regulations 2001 ("the General Regulations") (S.I. 2001/838).

Regulation 3 amends the definition of "r" in the Climate Change Levy relief formula in paragraph 2 of Schedule 1 to the General Regulations as a consequence of the changes to the rates of reduced-rate supplies made by section 148 of the Finance Act 2016.

A Tax Information and Impact Note (TIIN) covering this instrument was published on 16th March 2016 alongside draft clauses of the Finance Bill 2016 and is available on the HMRC website at http://www.gov.uk/government/publications/climate-change-levy-main-and-reduced-rates/climate-change-levy-main-and-reduced-rates . It remains an accurate summary of the impacts that apply to this instrument.
