Q.
Under Section 162 of Local Government Act (Act 171), where any building is unoccupied and no rent is payable in respect thereof during a period of not less than one calendar month in any half year in respect of which a rate has been paid the local authority may order the refund or remission, as the case may be, of any part of such rate proportionate to the period during which the building has been unoccupied. Explain the process/procedure as to how the owner or person could apply to obtain back the amount that he has paid.
