Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends the provisions of section 349B(3) of the Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988 (c. 1). Section 349A provides that a company or local authority may make certain payments gross (that is, without deduction of tax) if it reasonably believes one of the conditions in section 349B to be satisfied. The effect of the Order is to widen the condition in section 349B(3), to cover payments to a nominee of certain U.K. tax-exempt bodies.
