Yn ddilys o 22/07/2004

7A (1) This paragraph applies where—

(a) the circumstances are as described in paragraph 6(1) above,

(b) one or more payments (the “balancing payments”) are made to the advantaged person by the disadvantaged person, and

(c) the sole or main reason for making those payments is that paragraph 1(2) above applies.

(2) To the extent that the balancing payments do not in the aggregate exceed the amount of the available compensating adjustment, those payments—

(a) shall not be taken into account in computing profits or losses of either of the affected persons for the purposes of income tax or corporation tax, and

(b) shall not for any of the purposes of the Corporation Tax Acts be regarded as distributions or charges on income.

(3) In this paragraph “the available compensating adjustment” means the difference between PL1 and PL2 where—

• PL1 is the profits and losses of the disadvantaged person computed for tax purposes on the basis of the actual provision, and

• PL2 is the profits and losses of the disadvantaged person as they fall (or would fall) to be computed for tax purposes on a claim under paragraph 6 above,

for this purpose taking PL1 or PL2 as a positive amount if it is an amount of profits and as a negative amount if it is an amount of losses.
