(c)at any time during the year the settlor has an interest in the settlement,
the trustees shall not be chargeable to tax in respect of those [F2gains] but instead chargeable gains of an amount equal to that referred to in paragraph (b) shall be treated as accruing to the settlor in that year.
(2)Subject to the following provisions of this section, a settlor shall be regarded as having an interest in a settlement if—
(a)any property which may at any time be comprised in the settlement, or any derived property is, or will or may become, payable to or applicable for the benefit of the settlor or his spouse in any circumstances whatsoever, or

(4)A settlor shall not be regarded as having an interest in a settlement by virtue of subsection (2)(a) above if and so long as none of the property which may at any time be comprised in the settlement, and no derived property, can become payable or applicable as mentioned in that provision except in the event of—
(a)the bankruptcy of some person who is or may become beneficially entitled to the property or any derived property, or
(b)an assignment of or charge on the property or any derived property being made or given by some such person, or
(c)in the case of a marriage settlement, the death of both parties to the marriage and of all or any of the children of the marriage, or

(6)This section does not apply—

(ii)the fact that a benefit is enjoyed by his spouse,
where the spouse dies, or the settlor and the spouse cease to be married, during the year.
[F3(6A)Without prejudice to so much of this section as requires section 2A to be applied in the computation of any amount that is treated under this section as an amount of chargeable gains accruing to the settlor, chargeable gains that are treated as accruing to the settlor under this section shall not be eligible for taper relief.]
