[F1203FA PAYE: enhancing the value of an asset.U.K.

(1)Where—

(a)any assessable income of an employee is provided in the form of anything enhancing the value of an asset in which the employee or a member of his family or household already has an interest, and

(b)that asset, with its value enhanced, would be treated as a readily convertible asset for the purposes of section 203F if assessable income were provided to the employee in the form of that asset at the time of the enhancement,

that section shall have effect (subject to subsection (2) below) as if the employee had been provided, at that time, with assessable income in the form of the asset (with its value enhanced), instead of with whatever enhanced its value.

(2)Where section 203F has effect in accordance with subsection (1) above, subsection (3) of that section shall apply as if the reference in subsection (3) of that section to the provision of the asset were a reference to the enhancement of its value.

(3)Subject to subsection (4) below, any reference in this section to enhancing the value of an asset is a reference to—

(a)the provision of any services by which that asset or any right or interest in it is improved or otherwise made more valuable,

(b)the provision of any property the addition of which to the asset in question improves it or otherwise increases its value, or

(c)the provision of any other enhancement by the application of money or property to the improvement of the asset in question or to securing an increase in its value or in the value of any right or interest in it.

(4)PAYE regulations may make provision excluding such matters as may be described in the regulations from the scope of what constitutes enhancing the value of an asset for the purposes of this section.

(5)Expressions used in this section and in section 203F have the same meanings in this section as in that section.]
