157B: Reduction or cancellation of uniform annual general charge

You could also call this:

"When you don't have to pay a yearly fee because it's been cancelled"

Illustration for Local Government Act 1974

The uniform annual general charge is a fee that you might have to pay. You will not have to pay this fee because it has been repealed. This means the law that allowed the charge to be made was cancelled on 29 June 1988 by the Rating Powers Act 1988.
