23.—(1) Where—
(a)the claimant has carried out a taxable activity for a customer;
(b)there exist one or more other matters in respect of which the claimant is entitled to a debt owed by the customer (whether they involve a taxable disposal or not and whether they are connected with waste or not); and
(c)a payment has been received by the claimant from the customer,
the payment shall be attributed to the taxable activity and the other matters in accordance with the rule set out in paragraphs (2) and (3) below (and the debts arising in respect of the taxable activity and the other matters are collectively referred to in those paragraphs as debts).
(2) The payment shall be attributed to the debt which arose earliest and, if not wholly attributed to that debt, thereafter to debts in the order of the dates on which they arose, except that attribution under this paragraph shall not be made if the payment was allocated to a debt by the customer at the time of payment and the debt was paid in full.
(3) Where—
(a)the earliest debt and the other debts to which the whole of the payment could be attributed arose on the same day; or
(b)the debts to which the balance of the payment could be attributed in accordance with paragraph (2) above arose on the same day,
the payment shall be attributed to those debts by multiplying, for each such debt, the payment made by a fraction of which the numerator is the amount remaining unpaid in respect of that debt and the denominator is the amount remaining unpaid in respect of all those debts.
