I have added my name to Amendment 61B in this group referring to the provision allowing the Secretary of State—or the Welsh Assembly—to cancel a BRS if it, ""thinks that a levying authority has … acted in a way that is materially inconsistent with information provided by it"."
My amendment would except, ""minor or incidental information on which ratepayers could reasonably be expected not to have relied"."
I expect that the Minister will tell me that my concern is met because the two national authorities can simply decide if it is minor or incidental information and would not exercise their power to cancel, but I should be grateful if the Minister would confirm that I have understood that correctly.
