Under section 53(1) of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 the Secretary of State may, with a view to securing the central rating en bloc of certain hereditaments, by Regulations designate a person and prescribe in relation to him one or more descriptions of non-domestic hereditaments. Such Regulations may require that the central rating lists (which are by virtue of section 140 compiled separately for England and for Wales) shall show in relation to that person hereditaments of the prescribed description or descriptions, and contain such information about hereditaments shown in it as the Secretary of State may prescribe by Regulations under section 53(2) and (5). Supplementary provision may be made under section 143(1).
