The Non-Domestic Rating (Collection and Enforcement) (Local Lists) Regulations 1989 govern the collection and enforcement of non-domestic rates, also known as business rates, in the United Kingdom. These regulations establish procedures for local authorities to create and maintain lists of non-domestic properties and their rateable values, which are used to determine the amount of rates payable by businesses. The regulations also outline enforcement measures that can be taken by local authorities to collect unpaid rates, including methods such as distress, bankruptcy proceedings, and charging orders.
