7.0 Who can receive the grant?
7.1: Government has stated that the person who will receive the grant will be the person who, according to the Council's records, was the ratepayer in respect of the hereditament at the effective date.
7.3: Where the Council has reason to believe that the information it holds about the ratepayer or business at the effective date is inaccurate, it may withhold or recover the grant and take reasonable steps to identify the correct ratepayer.
7.4: Where, it is subsequently determined that the records held are incorrect, the Council reserves the right to recover any grant incorrectly paid.
7.5: Where any business or individual misrepresents information or contrives to take advantage of the scheme, the Council will look to recover any grant paid and take appropriate legal action. Likewise, if any business or individual is found to have falsified records in order to obtain a grant.
