[F255432CSection 432B apportionment: non-participating fundsU.K.

(1)This section specifies the extent to which the net amount is referable to life assurance business or to gross roll-up business.

(2)In this section “the net amount” means the aggregate of the amounts brought into account—

(a)as investment income,

(b)as an increase in the value of assets, or

(c)as other income,

less the aggregate of the amounts brought into account as a decrease in the value of assets.

(3)To the extent that the net amount is attributable to—

(a)assets linked to life assurance business, or

(b)foreign [F256business] assets,

it is referable to life assurance business.

(4)There is also referable to life assurance business the appropriate fraction of so much of the net amount as is not attributable to linked assets or foreign [F256business] assets.

(5)For the purposes of subsection (4) above “the appropriate fraction” is—

where—

A is the mean of the opening and closing liabilities of the relevant business so far as referable to life assurance business (but taking that mean to be nil if it would otherwise be below nil), reduced (but not below nil) by the aggregate of the mean of the opening and closing net values of assets linked to the relevant business so far as so referable and foreign [F256business] assets; and

B is the mean of the opening and closing liabilities of the relevant business so far as referable to PHI business, reduced (but not below nil) by the mean of the opening and closing net values of any assets linked to PHI business.

(6)But if the denominator found in accordance with subsection (5) above is nil, the appropriate fraction for the purposes of subsection (4) above is such fraction as is just and reasonable.

(7)To the extent that the net amount is attributable to—

(a)assets linked to gross roll-up business, or

(b)foreign [F256business] assets,

it is referable to gross roll-up business.

(8)There is also referable to gross roll-up business the relevant fraction of so much of the net amount as is not attributable to linked assets or foreign [F256business] assets.

(9)For the purposes of subsection (8) above “the relevant fraction” is—

where—

C is the mean of the opening and closing liabilities of the relevant business so far as referable to gross roll-up business (but taking that mean to be nil if it would otherwise be below nil), reduced (but not below nil) by the aggregate of the mean of the opening and closing net values of any assets linked to gross roll-up business and foreign [F256business] assets; and

D is the mean of the opening and closing liabilities of the relevant business so far as referable to basic life assurance and general annuity business or PHI business (but taking that mean to be nil if it would otherwise be below nil), reduced (but not below nil) by the mean of the opening and closing net values of any assets linked to either of those categories of business.

(10)But if the denominator found in accordance with subsection (9) above is nil, the relevant fraction for the purposes of subsection (8) above is such fraction as is just and reasonable.

(11)For the purposes of this section, so much of the net amount—

(a)as is brought into account as other income in an internal linked fund of the company, and

(b)as is not attributable to assets of that fund,

is to be treated as linked to a category of business to the same extent as income attributable to an asset of the fund would, by virtue of section 432ZA, be referable to that category of business.]

[F257432CAApportionment of asset value increase where line 51 amount decreasesU.K.

(1)This section applies where—

(a)an insurance company is not a non-profit company in relation to a period of account (“the current period of account”),

(b)in the case of any business with which an account of the company for the current period of account is concerned (“the relevant business”), an amount is a relevant brought into account amount for that period of account (see subsection (2)),

(c)section 432C applies for determining the extent to which the relevant brought into account amount is referable to life assurance business or to gross roll-up business, and

(d)the line 51 reduction condition is met (see subsection (3)).

(2)An amount is a relevant brought into account amount for a period of account if—

(a)it is brought into account as mentioned in subsection (2)(b) of section 83 of the Finance Act 1989 (increases in value of non-linked assets) for that period,

(b)it is deemed to be brought into account for that period by subsection (2B) of that section in consequence of the transfer of non-linked assets, or

(c)it is taken into account under subsection (2) of that section for that period by virtue of section 444AB as being the relevant amount in relation to non-linked assets.

(3)The line 51 reduction condition is met if—

(a)the amount shown in column 1 of line 51 of Form 14 of the company's periodical return in respect of the relevant business for the current period of account, is less than

(b)the amount so shown for the period of account immediately before it;

and the amount of the difference is “the relevant reduction”.

(4)Section 432C applies in relation to so much of the relevant brought into account amount as does not exceed the relevant reduction (“the affected amount”) as if it were brought into account as an increase in the value of assets in the case of the relevant business for the applicable appropriate period of account of the company.

(5)A period of account is an “appropriate period of account” if it ended before the current period of account and—

(a)the amount shown in column 1 of line 51 of Form 14 of the company's periodical return in respect of the relevant business for it, was more than

(b)the amount so shown for the period of account immediately before it;

and the amount of the difference is “the relevant increase.”

(6)The “applicable” appropriate period of account is the one which ended most recently (“the most recent appropriate period of account”).

(7)But if the relevant increase in the case of the most recent appropriate period of account is less than the affected amount, the most recent appropriate period of account is the applicable appropriate period of account in relation to only so much of the affected amount as does not exceed that relevant increase.

(8)In that case, the appropriate period of account which ended most recently before the most recent appropriate period of account is the applicable appropriate period of account in relation to so much of the remainder as does not exceed the relevant increase in the case of that appropriate period of account (and, where necessary, so on until the applicable appropriate period of account is established in relation to all of the affected amount or there are no more appropriate periods of account).

(9)If the current period of account is not the first in relation to which this section has applied in the case of the business concerned, the amount of the relevant increase in the case of any appropriate period of account (“the period in question”) is to be treated as reduced by the relevant aggregate.

(10)The “relevant aggregate” is the aggregate of so much of the affected amount for any period or periods of account earlier than the current period of account as was an amount to which section 432C applied as if it were brought into account as mentioned in subsection (4) for the period in question.

(11)For the purposes of this section an insurance company which has elected under section 83YA(9) of the Finance Act 1989 (changes in value of assets brought into account: non-profit companies) to be treated as a non-profit company in relation to a period of account is to be regarded as a non-profit company in relation to the period of account.]

[F258432CBTransfers of business involving excess assetsU.K.

(1)This section applies where, under an insurance business transfer scheme, there is a transfer of long-term business—

(a)from a non-profit fund of an insurance company (“the transferor”) which is not a non-profit company in relation to the relevant period of account,

(b)to another insurance company (“the transferee”) to constitute or form part of a non-profit fund of the transferee (“the transferee's non-profit fund”),

(“the transfer”) and conditions A and B are met.

(2)Condition A is that the fair value of the assets transferred by the transfer exceeds by an amount (“the chargeable excess”) the amount of the relevant liabilities transferred by the transfer.

For this purpose “relevant” liabilities are liabilities of a type shown (or treated as shown) in any of lines 14, 17, 21 to 23 and 31 to 38 of Form 14 of a periodical return of an insurance company.

(3)Condition B is that the main purpose, or one of the main purposes, of the transferor or the transferee (or both) in entering into any part of the transfer scheme arrangements is to secure a reduction in tax as a result of section 432C having effect in the case of the transferee, rather than the transferor, in relation to the business transferred by the transfer.

(4)The chargeable excess is to be brought into account by the transferor as mentioned in section 83(2)(b) of the Finance Act 1989 for the relevant period of account.

(5)Where there is no amount shown in relation to the transferee's non-profit fund in column 1 of line 51 of Form 14 of the periodical return of the transferee for the first period of account of the transferee ending on or after the transfer date (“the first post-transfer period of account”), the chargeable excess is to be brought into account by the transferee as mentioned in section 83(2) of the Finance Act 1989 as a decrease in the value of non-linked assets for the first post-transfer period of account.

(6)Where—

(a)there is an amount shown in relation to the transferee's non-profit fund in column 1 of line 51 of Form 14 of the periodical return of the transferee for the first post-transfer period of account, and

(b)the amount so shown in column 1 of line 51 of Form 14 of the periodical return of the transferee for that period of account, or for any other period of account of the transferee ending after the transfer date, (an “affected period of account”) is less than the total chargeable excess amount,

the relevant amount is to be brought into account by the transferee as mentioned in section 83(2) of the Finance Act 1989 as a decrease in the value of non-linked assets for the affected period of account.

(7)For this purpose “the relevant amount” is the amount by which—

(a)the amount shown in relation to the transferee's non-profit fund in column 1 of line 51 of Form 14 of the periodical return of the transferee for the affected period of account, is less than

(b)the total chargeable excess amount less any amount brought into account by the transferee as mentioned in section 83(2) of the Finance Act 1989 as a decrease in the value of non-linked assets for any earlier period of account by virtue of the operation of this section in relation to the transferee's non-profit fund.

(8)In subsections (6) and (7) “the total chargeable excess amount” means the aggregate of—

(a)the chargeable excess, and

(b)any amount which is the chargeable excess in relation to any other transfer of business to the transferee's non-profit fund.

(9)In this section “the relevant period of account” means—

(a)the period of account of the transferor ending immediately before the transfer date, or

(b)if no period of account of the transferor so ends, the period of account of the transferor covering the transfer date.

(10)In this section “the transfer scheme arrangements” means the insurance business transfer scheme and any relevant associated operations; and for this purpose “relevant associated operations” means—

(a)any other insurance business transfer scheme,

(b)any contract of reinsurance, or

(c)any reconstruction or amalgamation involving the transferor, a dependant of the transferor which is an insurance undertaking or the transferee,

which is effected in connection with the insurance business transfer scheme.

(11)In subsection (10)—

  • “dependant”, and

  • “insurance undertaking”,

have the same meaning as in the Insurance Prudential Sourcebook.

(12)In this section “the transfer date” means the date on which the insurance business transfer scheme takes effect.

(13)For the purposes of this section an insurance company which has elected under section 83YA(9) of the Finance Act 1989 (changes in value of assets brought into account: non-profit companies) to be treated as a non-profit company in relation to a period of account is to be regarded as a non-profit company in relation to the period of account.]

[F382437A Meaning of “steep-reduction annuity” etc.U.K.

(1)For the purposes of section 437 an annuity is a steep-reduction annuity if—

(a)the amount of any payment in respect of the annuity (but not the term of the annuity) depends on any contingency other than the duration of a human life or lives;

(b)the annuitant is entitled in respect of the annuity to payments of different amounts at different times; and

(c)those payments include a payment (“a reduced payment”) of an amount which is substantially smaller than the amount of at least one of the earlier payments in respect of that annuity to which the annuitant is entitled.

(2)Where there are different intervals between payments to which an annuitant is entitled in respect of any annuity, the question whether or not the conditions in subsection (1)(b) and (c) above are satisfied in the case of that annuity shall be determined by assuming—

(a)that the annuitant’s entitlement, after the first payment, to payments in respect of that annuity is an entitlement to payments at yearly intervals on the anniversary of the first payment; and

(b)that the amount to which the annuitant is assumed to be entitled on each such anniversary is equal to the annuitant’s assumed entitlement for the year ending with that anniversary.

(3)For the purposes of subsection (2) above an annuitant’s assumed entitlement for any year shall be determined as follows—

(a)the annuitant’s entitlement to each payment in respect of the annuity shall be taken to accrue at a constant rate during the interval between the previous payment and that payment; and

(b)his assumed entitlement for any year shall be taken to be equal to the aggregate of the amounts which, in accordance with paragraph (a) above, are treated as accruing in that year.

(4)In the case of an annuity to which subsection (2) above applies, the reference in section 437(1CB)(a) to the making of a reduced payment shall be construed as if it were a reference to the making of a payment in respect of that annuity which (applying subsection (3)(a) above) is taken to accrue at a rate that is substantially less than the rate at which at least one of the earlier payments in respect of that annuity is taken to accrue.

(5)Where—

(a)any question arises for the purposes of this section whether the amount of any payment in respect of any annuity—

(i)is substantially smaller than the amount of, or

(ii)accrues at a rate substantially less than,

an earlier payment in respect of that annuity, and

(b)the annuitant or, as the case may be, every annuitant is an individual who is beneficially entitled to all the rights conferred on him as such an annuitant,

that question shall be determined without regard to so much of the difference between the amounts or rates as is referable to a reduction falling to be made as a result of the occurrence of a death.

(6)Where the amount of any one or more of the payments to which an annuitant is entitled in respect of an annuity depends on any contingency, his entitlement to payments in respect of that annuity shall be determined for the purposes of section 437(1CA) to (1CC) and this section according to whatever (applying any relevant actuarial principles) is the most likely outcome in relation to that contingency.

(7)Where any agreement or arrangement has effect for varying the rights of an annuitant in relation to a payment in respect of any annuity, that payment shall be taken, for the purposes of section 437(1CA) to (1CC) and this section, to be a payment of the amount to which the annuitant is entitled in accordance with that agreement or arrangement.

(8)References in this section to a contingency include references to a contingency that consists wholly or partly in the exercise by any person of any option.]

(1)Subsection (2) makes provision for a case where—

(a)subsection (4) of section 431G applies in relation to the profits of the life assurance business of an insurance company for any accounting period, but

(b)the profits of that business for a succeeding accounting period fall to be charged to tax [F449under section 35 of CTA 2009 (charge on trade profits)] by virtue of subsection (3) of that section.

(2)The loss referred to in section 431G(4)(b) (less any loss for the same accounting period set off under section 436A for any intervening accounting period and any amount deducted for any such period in respect of the loss by virtue of section 85A(3)(b) of the Finance Act 1989) may be [F450relieved under section 45 of CTA 2010] against profits of that succeeding accounting period (without being reduced in accordance with section 434A(2)(a)).

(3)In determining whether any loss has been set off under section 436A for any intervening accounting period, or whether any amount has been deducted for any such period in respect of the loss by virtue of section 85A(3)(b) of the Finance Act 1989, losses of earlier accounting periods are to be assumed to be set off before those of later accounting periods.

(4)Subsection (5) makes provision for a case where—

(a)a loss arises to an insurance company for an accounting period for which the profits of its life assurance business fall to be charged to tax [F451under section 35 of CTA 2009] by virtue of section 431G(3)(b),

(b)the profits of that business for a subsequent accounting period are charged to tax under the I minus E basis, and

(c)had those profits (instead) been charged to tax [F452under section 35 of CTA 2009], any of that loss would have been available to be set off against them under [F453section 45 of CTA 2010].

(5)The loss is to be treated for the purposes of the operation of section 436A in relation to the subsequent accounting period as if it were a loss arising from its gross roll-up business in the accounting period in which it arose.

(6)Subsections (7) and (8) make provision for a case where—

(a)the profits of the life assurance business of an insurance company for an accounting period are charged to tax under the I minus E basis,

(b)the profits of that business for its next accounting period fall to be charged to tax [F454under section 35 of CTA 2009] by virtue of section 431G(3), and

(c)that prevents the giving of relief in accordance with section 86(8) of the Finance Act 1989 (acquisition expenses relieved in fractions under section 76).

(7)Any relief which would have been so given in—

(a)the next accounting period, or

(b)any subsequent accounting period for which the profits of the company's life assurance business continue to be charged to tax [F455under section 35 of CTA 2009],

may be given by set-off against any gains treated as accruing under section 213(1) of the 1992 Act at the end of the accounting period.

(8)But if the profits of the company's life assurance business for a subsequent accounting period are charged to tax under the I minus E basis, any relief not previously given under subsection (7) is to be treated for the purposes of the operation of section 76 in relation to the first subsequent accounting period for which profits are so charged as if it were an amount which is to be relieved under that section by virtue of section 86(8) and (9) of the Finance Act 1989.]

[F469442A Taxation of investment return where risk reinsured.U.K.

(1)Where an insurance company reinsures any risk in respect of a policy or contract attributable to its basic life assurance and general annuity business, the investment return on the policy or contract shall be treated as accruing to the company [F470while the risk remains reinsured by the company under] the reinsurance arrangement and shall be charged to tax under [F471the charge to corporation tax on income].

(2)The Board may make provision by regulations as to the amount of investment return to be treated as accruing in each accounting period during which the reinsurance arrangement is in force.

(3)The regulations may, in particular, provide that the investment return to be treated as accruing to the company in respect of a policy or contract in any accounting period shall be calculated by reference to—

(a)the aggregate of the sums paid by the company to the reinsurer during that accounting period and any earlier accounting periods by way of premium or otherwise;

(b)the aggregate of the sums paid by the reinsurer to the company during that accounting period and any earlier accounting periods by way of commission or otherwise;

(c)the aggregate amount of the net investment return treated as accruing to the company in any earlier accounting periods, that is to say, net of tax at such rate as may be prescribed; and

(d)such percentage rate of return as may be prescribed.

[F472(3A)Where a transfer of the reinsurance arrangement from one insurance company (“the transferor”) to another (“the transferee”) is effected by novation or an insurance business transfer scheme, for the purpose of calculating the investment return to be treated as accruing to the transferee in respect of the policy or contract after the transfer, the references to the company in subsection (3)(a), (b) and (c) above include (as well as the transferee)—

(a)the transferor, and

(b)any insurance company from which the reinsurance arrangement was transferred on an earlier transfer effected by novation or an insurance business transfer scheme.]

(4)The regulations shall provide that the amount of investment return to be treated as accruing F473. . . in respect of a policy or contract in the final accounting period during which the policy or contract is in force is the amount, ascertained in accordance with regulations, by which the profit over the whole period during which the policy or contract, and the reinsurance arrangement, were in force exceeds the aggregate of the amounts treated as accruing in earlier accounting periods.

If that profit is less than the aggregate of the amounts treated as accruing in earlier accounting periods, the difference shall go to reduce the amounts treated by virtue of this section as arising in that accounting period from other policies or contracts, and if not fully so relieved may be carried forward and set against any such amounts in subsequent accounting periods.

(5)Regulations under this section—

(a)may exclude from the operation of this section such descriptions of insurance company, such descriptions of policies or contracts and such descriptions of reinsurance arrangements as may be prescribed;

(b)may make such supplementary provision as to the ascertainment of the investment return to be treated as accruing to the company as appears to the Board to be appropriate, including provision requiring payments made during an accounting period to be treated as made on such date or dates as may be prescribed; and

(c)may make different provision for different cases or descriptions of case.

(6)In this section “prescribed” means prescribed by regulations under this section.]

(3)Any loss which ([F480making the assumptions in subsection (3B) below])—

444BA Equalisation reserves for general business.U.K.

(1)Subject to the following provisions of this section and to sections 444BB to 444BD, the rules in subsection (2) below shall apply in making any computation, for the purposes of [F645section 35 of CTA 2009 (charge on trade profits)], of the profits or losses for any accounting period of an insurance company whose business has at any time been or included business in respect of which it was required, by virtue of [F646equalisation reserve rules], to maintain an equalisation reserve.

(2)Those rules are—

(a)that amounts which, in accordance with [F646equalisation reserve rules], are transferred into the equalisation reserve in respect of the company’s business for the accounting period in question are to be deductible;

(b)that amounts which, in accordance with any such regulations, are transferred out of the reserve in respect of the company’s business for that period are to be treated as receipts of that business; and

(c)that it must be assumed that all such transfers as are required by [F646equalisation reserve rules] to be made into or out of the reserve in respect of the company’s business for any period are made as required.

(3)Where an insurance company having any business in respect of which it is required, by virtue of [F646equalisation reserve rules], to maintain an equalisation reserve ceases to trade—

(a)any balance which exists in the reserve at that time for the purposes of the Tax Acts shall be deemed to have been transferred out of the reserve immediately before the company ceases to trade; and

(b)that transfer out shall be deemed to be a transfer in respect of the company’s business for the accounting period in which the company so ceases and to have been required by [F646equalisation reserve rules].

(4)Where—

(a)an amount is transferred into an equalisation reserve in respect of the business of an insurance company for any accounting period,

(b)the rule in subsection (2)(a) above would apply to the transfer of that amount but for this subsection,

(c)that company by notice in writing to an officer of the Board makes an election in relation to that amount for the purposes of this subsection, and

(d)the notice of the election is given not more than two years after the end of that period,

the rule mentioned in subsection (2)(a) above shall not apply to that transfer of that amount and, instead, the amount transferred (the “unrelieved transfer”) shall be carried forward for the purposes of subsection (5) below to the next accounting period and (subject to subsection (6) below) from accounting period to accounting period.

(5)Where—

(a)in accordance with [F646equalisation reserve rules], a transfer is made out of an equalisation reserve in respect of an insurance company’s business for any accounting period,

(b)the rule in subsection (2)(b) above would apply to the transfer but for this subsection, and

(c)the accounting period is one to which any amount representing one or more unrelieved transfers has been carried forward under subsection (4) above,

that rule mentioned in subsection (2)(b) above shall not apply to that transfer except to the extent (if any) that the amount of the transfer exceeds the aggregate of the amounts representing unrelieved transfers carried forward to that period.

(6)Where in the case of any company—

(a)any amount representing one or more unrelieved transfers is carried forward to an accounting period in accordance with subsection (4) above, and

(b)by virtue of subsection (5) above the rule in subsection (2)(b) above does not apply to an amount representing the whole or any part of any transfer out of an equalisation reserve in respect of the company’s business for that period,

the amount mentioned in paragraph (a) above shall not be carried forward under subsection (4) above to the next accounting period except to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in paragraph (b) above.

(7)To the extent that any actual or assumed transfer in accordance with [F646equalisation reserve rules] of any amount into an equalisation reserve is attributable to arrangements entered into wholly or mainly for tax purposes—

(a)the rule in subsection (2)(a) above shall not apply to that transfer; and

(b)the making of that transfer shall be disregarded in determining, for the purposes of the Tax Acts, whether and to what extent there is subsequently any requirement to make a transfer into or out of the reserve in accordance with [F646equalisation reserve rules];

and this subsection applies irrespective of whether the insurance company in question is a party to the arrangements.

(8)For the purposes of this section the transfer of an amount into an equalisation reserve is attributable to arrangements entered into wholly or mainly for tax purposes to the extent that the arrangements to which it is attributable are arrangements—

(a)the sole or main purpose of which is, or

(b)the sole or main benefit accruing from which might (but for subsection (7) above) be expected to be,

the reduction by virtue of this section of any liability to tax.

(9)Where—

(a)any transfer made into or out of an equalisation reserve maintained by an insurance company is made in accordance with [F646equalisation reserve rules] in respect of business carried on by that company over a period (“the equalisation period”), and

(b)parts of the equalisation period are in different accounting periods,

the amount transferred shall be apportioned for the purposes of this section between the different accounting periods in the proportions that correspond to the number of days in the equalisation period that are included in each of those accounting periods.

(10)The Treasury may by regulations provide in relation to any accounting periods ending on or after 1st April 1996 for specified transitional provisions contained in [F646equalisation reserve rules] to be disregarded for the purposes of the Tax Acts in determining how much is required, on any occasion, to be transferred into or out of any equalisation reserve in accordance with [F647the rules].

[F648(11)In this section, and in sections 444BB to 444BD, “equalisation reserves rules” means the rules in [F649chapter 1.4 of the Insurance Prudential Sourcebook].]

461 Taxation in respect of other business.U.K.

(1)M21Subject to the following provisions of this section, a registered friendly society other than a society to which subsection (2) below applies shall, on making a claim, be entitled to exemption from F720. . . corporation tax (whether on income or chargeable gains) on its profits other than those arising from life or endowment business.

(2)M22This subsection applies to any society registered after 31st May 1973 unless—

(a)its business is limited to the provision, in accordance with the rules of the society, of benefits for or in respect of employees of a particular employer or such other group of persons as is for the time being approved for the purposes of this section by the [F721Board]; or

(b)it was registered before 27th March 1974 and its rules limit the aggregate amount which may be paid by a member by way of contributions and deposits to not more than £1 per month or such greater amount as the [F721Board] may authorise for the purposes of this section;

and also applies to any society registered before 1st June 1973 with respect to which a direction under subsection [F722(7)] below is in force.

(3)M23If a society to which subsection (2) above applies, after 26th March 1974 or such later date as may be specified in a direction under this section, makes a payment to a member in respect of his interest in the society and the payment is made otherwise than in the course of life or endowment business and exceeds the aggregate of any sums paid by him to the society by way of contributions or deposits, after deducting from that aggregate the amount of—

(a)any previous payment so made to him by the society after that date, and

(b)any earlier repayment of such sums paid by him,

the excess shall be treated for the purposes of corporation tax and income tax as a qualifying distribution.

[F723(3A)F724. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .]

(4)M24Where a registered friendly society—

(a)at any time ceases F725. . . by virtue of [F726section 91 of the Friendly Societies Act 1992] (conversion into company) to be registered under [F727that Act]; and

(b)immediately before that time was exempt from F728. . . corporation tax on profits arising from any business carried on by it other than life or endowment business,

the company into which the society is converted shall be so exempt on its profits arising from any part of that business which relates to contracts made before that time so long as there is no increase in the scale of benefits which it undertakes to provide in the course of carrying on that part of its business.

[F729(4A)Where—

(a)at any time an insurance company acquires by way of transfer of engagements from a registered friendly society any business other than life or endowment business, and

(b)immediately before that time the society was exempt from corporation tax on profits arising from that business,

the insurance company shall be exempt from corporation tax on its profits arising from any part of that business which relates to contracts made before that time.

(4B)But if during an accounting period of the insurance company there is an increase in the scale of benefits which it undertakes to provide in the course of carrying on any such part of that business, the company shall not be exempt from corporation tax by virtue of subsection (4A) above for that or any subsequent accounting period.]

(5)For the purposes of the Corporation Tax Acts any part of a company’s business in respect of the profits from which the company is exempt by virtue of subsection (4) [F730or (4A)] above shall be treated as a separate business from any other business carried on by the company.

(6)M25If—

(a)a friendly society registered before 1st June 1973 begins after 26th March 1974 to carry on business other than life or endowment business or, in the opinion of [F731the Board], begins to carry on business other than life or endowment business on an enlarged scale or of a new character; and

(b)it appears to [F731the Board], having regard to the restrictions imposed by this section on friendly societies registered later, that for the protection of the revenue it is expedient to do so;

[F732the Board may give a direction to the society under subsection (7) below.]

[F733(7)A direction under this subsection is that (and has the effect that) the society to which it is given is to be treated for the purposes of this Act as a society registered after 31st May 1973 with respect to business carried on after the date of the direction.

(8)A society to which a direction is given may, within 30 days of the date on which it is given, appeal against the direction F734. . . on the ground that—

(a)it has not begun to carry on business as mentioned in subsection (6)(a) above; or

(b)the direction is not necessary for the protection of the revenue.

(9)If a registered friendly society in respect of which a direction is in force under subsection (7) above becomes an incorporated friendly society, the direction shall continue to have effect, so that the incorporated friendly society shall be treated for the purposes of this Act as a society registered after 31st May 1973.]

(10)For the purposes of this section a registered friendly society formed on the amalgamation of two or more friendly societies shall be treated as registered before 1st June 1973 if at the time of the amalgamation subsection (2) above did not apply to any of the societies amalgamated, but otherwise shall be treated as registered at that time.

(3)If it appears to the Board, having regard to the restrictions placed on qualifying policies issued by new societies by paragraphs 3(1)(b) F790 . . . and 4(3)(b) of Schedule 15, that for the protection of the revenue it is expedient to do so, the Board may give a direction to the old society under subsection (4) below.

(5)An old society to which a direction is given may, within 30 days of the date on which it is given, appeal against the direction F791. . . on the ground that—

500 Deduction of PRT in computing income for corporation tax purposes.U.K.

(1)Where a participator in an oil field has paid any petroleum revenue tax with which he was chargeable for a chargeable period, then, in computing for corporation tax the amount of his income arising in the relevant accounting period from oil extraction activities or oil rights, there shall be deducted an amount equal to that petroleum revenue tax.

(2)There shall be made all such adjustments of assessments to corporation tax as are required in order to give effect to subsection (1) above.

(3)For the purposes of subsection (1) above, the relevant accounting period, in relation to any petroleum revenue tax paid by a company, is—

(a)the accounting period of the company in or at the end of which the chargeable period for which that tax was charged ends; or

[F936(b)if that chargeable period ends after the accounting period of the company in or at the end of which the company—

(i)ceases to carry on the trade giving rise to the income referred to above, or

(ii)ceases to be within the charge to corporation tax in respect of that trade,

that accounting period.]

(4)[F937Subject to the following provisions of this section] if some or all of the petroleum revenue tax in respect of which a deduction has been made under subsection (1) above is subsequently repaid, that deduction shall be reduced or extinguished accordingly; and any additional assessment to corporation tax required in order to give effect to this subsection may be made at any time not later than [F9384 years] after the end of the [F939calendar year] in which the first-mentioned tax was repaid.

[F940(5)If, in a case where paragraph 17 of Schedule 2 to the 1975 Act applies, an amount of petroleum revenue tax in respect of which a deduction has been made under subsection (1) above is repaid by virtue of an assessment under that Schedule or an amendment of such an assessment, then, so far as concerns so much of that repayment as constitutes the appropriate repayment,—

(a)subsection (4) above shall not apply; and

(b)the following provisions of this section shall apply in relation to the company which is entitled to the repayment.

(6)In subsection (5) above and the following provisions of this section—

(a)the appropriate repayment” has the meaning assigned by sub-paragraph (2) of paragraph 17 of Schedule 2 to the 1975 Act;

(b)in relation to the appropriate repayment, a “carried back loss” means an allowable loss which falls within sub-paragraph (1)(a) of that paragraph and which (alone or together with one or more other carried back losses) gives rise to the appropriate repayment;

(c)in relation to a carried back loss, “the operative chargeable period” means the chargeable period in which the loss accrued; and

(d)in relation to the company which is entitled to the appropriate repayment, “the relevant accounting period[F941means—

(i)the accounting period in or at the end of which ends the operative chargeable period, or

(ii)if the company ceases to carry on its ring fence trade (or to be within the charge to corporation tax in respect of that trade) before the end of the operative chargeable period, the last accounting period of that trade (or, as the case requires, the accounting period during or at the end of which the company ceased to be within the charge to corporation tax in respect of that trade).]

(7)In computing for corporation tax the amount of the company’s income arising in the relevant accounting period from oil extraction activities or oil rights there shall be added an amount equal to the appropriate repayment; but this subsection has effect subject to subsection (8) below in any case where—

(a)two or more carried back losses give rise to the appropriate repayment; and

(b)the operative chargeable period in relation to each of the carried back losses is not the same; and

(c)if subsection (6)(d) above were applied separately in relation to each of the carried back losses there would be more than one relevant accounting period.

(8)Where paragraphs (a) to (c) of subsection (7) above apply, the appropriate repayment shall be treated as apportioned between each of the relevant accounting periods referred to in paragraph (c) of that subsection in such manner as to secure that the amount added by virtue of that subsection in relation to each of those relevant accounting periods is what it would have been if—

(a)relief for each of the carried back losses for which there is a different operative chargeable period had been given by a separate assessment or amendment of an assessment under Schedule 2 to the 1975 Act; and

(b)relief for a carried back loss accruing in an earlier chargeable period had been so given before relief for a carried back loss accruing in a later chargeable period.

(9)Any additional assessment to corporation tax required in order to give effect to the addition of an amount by virtue of subsection (7) above may be made at any time not later than [F9384 years] after the end of the calendar year in which is made the repayment of petroleum revenue tax comprising the appropriate repayment.

(10)In this section “allowable loss” and “chargeable period” have the same meaning as in Part I of the 1975 Act and “calendar year” means a period of twelve months beginning on 1st January.]

(1)Subsection (2) applies in a case where members of a qualifying contemplative religious community transfer all their income and assets, or covenant all their income, to the community (“the independent community”) (and for this purpose it is irrelevant whether or not the community is part of an order or religious institution).

(2)As respects each chargeable period of the independent community, and each person who is a qualifying member of the independent community at any time in that period, the independent community shall be treated for the purposes of corporation tax as if an amount of its profits for the chargeable period equal to the relevant amount (see subsections (5) to (7)) were income of the qualifying member.

(3)Subsection (4) applies in a case where—

(a)one or more qualifying contemplative religious communities (“constituent communities”) are part of an order or religious institution (“the parent body”), and

(b)members of the constituent communities transfer all their income and assets, or covenant all their income, to the parent body.

(4)As respects each chargeable period of the parent body, and each person who is a qualifying member of a constituent community at any time in that period, the parent body shall be treated for the purposes of corporation tax as if an amount of its profits for the chargeable period equal to the relevant amount (see subsections (5) to (7)) were income of the qualifying member.

(5)For the purposes of subsections (2) and (4), the relevant amount, in relation to a chargeable period, is the amount of the annual personal allowance for persons under 65 (see section 35 of ITA 2007) for—

(a)the tax year which begins in the chargeable period, or

(b)if no tax year begins in the chargeable period, the tax year which is current when the chargeable period begins.

(6)But, if the chargeable period is less than 12 months, the relevant amount is—

where—

  • P is the number of days in the chargeable period;

  • A is the amount determined under subsection (5) in relation to the chargeable period.

(7)If, during the chargeable period, an individual ceases to be a qualifying member of the independent community or a constituent community (otherwise than on death), the relevant amount, in relation to the chargeable period and that qualifying member, is—

where—

  • Q is the number of days in the chargeable period for which the individual is a qualifying member of the independent community or constituent community;

  • P is the number of days in the chargeable period;

  • B is the amount determined under subsection (5), or subsections (5) and (6), in relation to the chargeable period.

(8)So far as the exemption from corporation tax conferred by this section calls for repayment of tax, no repayment shall be made except on a claim made by the independent community or parent body.

(9)In a case where a member of an independent community or constituent community—

(a)has transferred or covenanted income to the community (in the case of an independent community) or the parent body (in the case of a constituent community), and

(b)has income for a tax year which does not exceed 20% of the annual personal allowance for persons under 65 (see section 35 of ITA 2007) for that tax year,

the member is, for the purposes of this section, to be taken to have transferred or covenanted all his or her income for that tax year to the community or parent body.

(10)For the purposes of this section a contemplative religious community is a “qualifying” contemplative religious community if—

(a)the community is established in the United Kingdom,

(b)the members of the community live and practise their religion in a communal establishment, and

(c)the community is not a charity, but the religion that is professed by the members of the community does not prevent the community from being a charity.

(11)In this section—

  • member”, in relation to a religious community, means an individual who—

    (a)

    is living in the community, and

    (b)

    has taken vows or made equivalent commitments (whether probationary or not);

(a)section 508A(4) applies in relation to a parent body,

Llinell Amser Newidiadau

This timeline shows the different points in time where a change occurred. The dates will coincide with the earliest date on which the change (e.g an insertion, a repeal or a substitution) that was applied came into force. The first date in the timeline will usually be the earliest date when the provision came into force. In some cases the first date is 01/02/1991 (or for Northern Ireland legislation 01/01/2006). This date is our basedate. No versions before this date are available. For further information see the Editorial Practice Guide and Glossary under Help.
