8 Tonnes to be rounded in calculations
(1) For the purposes of calculating a contribution under this Part (including the amount of any deduction and the quantity of waste exempted from the calculation of a contribution under clause 21 or 21A), the tonnage of any waste is to be rounded to two decimal places (rounding 0.005 upwards).
(2) However, if the method by which waste is authorised to be measured and recorded under Division 2 of Part 3 results in a measurement and record to two decimal places or less—
(a) the tonnage of waste for the purposes of calculating the contribution is the tonnage so measured and recorded, and
(b) that tonnage need not be rounded.
