(1)For subsection (1) of section 353 of the Taxes Act 1988 (general provision for relief for interest payments) there shall be substituted the following subsection—
“(1)Where a person pays interest in any year of assessment, that person, if he makes a claim to the relief, shall for that year of assessment be entitled (subject to sections 354 to 368) to relief in accordance with this section in respect of so much (if any) of the amount of that interest as is eligible for relief under this section by virtue of sections 354 to 365.”
(2)After that subsection there shall be inserted the following subsections—
“(1A)Where a person is entitled for any year of assessment to relief under this section in respect of any amount of interest which—
(a)is eligible for that relief by virtue of section 354 or 365, and
(b)so far as eligible by virtue of section 354, is so eligible in a case which falls, or is treated as falling, within section 355(1)(a), 356 or 358,
that relief shall consist in an income tax reduction for that year calculated by reference to that amount.
(1B)Where a person is entitled for any year of assessment to relief under this section in respect of any amount of interest which—
(a)is eligible for that relief otherwise than by virtue of section 354 or 365, or
(b)is eligible for that relief by virtue of section 354 in a case falling within section 355(1)(b),
that relief shall consist (subject to sections 237(5)(b) and 355(4)) in a deduction or set-off of that amount from or against that person’s income for that year.
(1C)Without prejudice to subsection (1E) below, where the whole or any part of an amount of interest is eligible for relief under this section by virtue of section 354 in a case which (apart from this subsection) would fall, or be treated as falling, within both section 355(1)(a) or 356 and section 355(1)(b), then that case shall be treated for the purposes of this section and the following provisions of this Act—
(a)except in relation to payments to which an election made for the purposes of this subsection by the person entitled to the relief applies, as falling within section 355(1)(b) and not within section 355(1)(a) or 356; and
(b)in relation to payments to which such an election does apply, as falling within section 355(1)(a) or, as the case may be, 356, and not within section 355(1)(b).
(1D)An election for the purposes of subsection (1C)—
(a)shall be made, and may be withdrawn, by the giving of written notice to an officer of the Board;
(b)shall apply to every payment of interest which—
(i)is made after the time specified in the notice of that election as the time as from which it takes effect; and
(ii)is not made after a time specified in a notice of the withdrawal of that election as the time as from which that election is withdrawn;
(c)shall not be made so as to take effect as from any time except the beginning of a year of assessment or a time as from which the conditions for the case to fall, or be treated as falling, within both section 355(1)(a) or 356 and section 355(1)(b) have begun to be satisfied in relation to payments of interest on the loan in question;
(d)shall not be withdrawn except as from the beginning of a year of assessment; and
(e)shall not be made so as to take effect, and shall not be withdrawn, as from any time before the beginning of the year of assessment immediately before that in which the notice of the election or, as the case may be, of the withdrawal is given to an officer of the Board.
(1E)Where any person is entitled for any year of assessment to relief under this section in respect of any amount of interest as is eligible for that relief partly as mentioned in subsection (1A) above and partly as mentioned in subsection (1B) above, that amount of interest shall be apportioned between the cases to which each of those subsections applies without regard to what parts of the total amount borrowed remain outstanding but according to the following factors, that is to say—
(a)the proportions of the total amount borrowed which were applied for different purposes; and
(b)in the case of so much of any amount of interest which is, or in pursuance of an apportionment under paragraph (a) above is treated as, eligible for relief by virtue of section 354, the different uses to which the land or other property in question is put from time to time;
and subsection (1A) or (1B) above shall apply accordingly in relation to the interest apportioned to the case to which that subsection applies.
(1F)Where any person is entitled under this section for any year of assessment to an income tax reduction calculated by reference to an amount of interest, the amount of that person’s liability for that year to income tax on his total income shall be the amount to which he would have been liable apart from this section less whichever is the smaller of—
(a)the amount equal to the applicable percentage of that amount of interest; and
(b)the amount which reduces his liability to nil.
(1G)In subsection (1F) above “the applicable percentage”—
(a)in relation to so much of any interest as is eligible for relief under this section by virtue of section 354, means 20 per cent.; and
(b)in relation to so much of any interest as is eligible for relief under this section by virtue of section 365, means the percentage which is the basic rate for the year of assessment in question;
but, in relation to any payment of interest which (whenever falling due) is made in the year 1995-96 or any subsequent year of assessment, paragraph (a) above shall have effect with the substitution of “15 per cent.” for “20 per cent.”
(1H)In determining for the purposes of subsection (1F) above the amount of income tax to which a person would be liable apart from any income tax reduction under this section, no account shall be taken of—
(a)any income tax reduction under Chapter I of Part VII or section 347B;
(b)any relief by way of a reduction of liability to tax which is given in accordance with any arrangements having effect by virtue of section 788 or by way of a credit under section 790(1); or
(c)any tax at the basic rate on so much of that person’s income as is income the income tax on which he is entitled to charge against any other person or to deduct, retain or satisfy out of any payment.”

(a)payments of relevant loan interest to which this section applies, and
(b)payments which would be such payments but for section 373(5),
shall not be allowable as deductions for any purpose of the Income Tax Acts except in so far as they fall to be treated as such payments by virtue only of section 375(2) and would be allowable apart from this subsection.”
(5)Schedule 9 to this Act (which for the purposes of or in connection with the provisions of this section makes further modifications of certain enactments in relation to tax relief on interest payments) shall have effect.
(6)The preceding provisions of this section and that Schedule—
(a)shall have effect in relation to payments of interest made on or after 6th April 1994 (whenever falling due); and
(b)shall also have effect, so far as they relate to relevant loan interest, in relation to any payments of interest becoming due on or after 6th April 1994 which have been made at any time before that date but on or after 30th November 1993.
(7)Any provision made before the passing of this Act by reference to the basic rate of income tax and contained in any instrument or agreement under or in accordance with which payments of relevant loan interest have been or are to be made shall be taken, in relation to any such payment as is mentioned in subsection (6)(a) or (b) above, to have been made, instead, by reference to a rate which, in the case of that payment, is the applicable percentage for the purposes of subsection (1) of section 369 of the Taxes Act 1988.
F11(8). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

F15S. 92 repealed (31.7.1998 with effect as mentioned in Sch. 27 Pt. III(31), Note in the repealing Act) by 1998 c. 36, s. 165, Sch. 27 Pt. III(31) Note
(1)In section 53 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 (indexation allowance), in subsection (1), for the words following “contrary” to the end of paragraph (c) there shall be substituted “if on the disposal of an asset there is an unindexed gain, an allowance (“the indexation allowance”) shall be allowed against the unindexed gain—
(a)so as to give the gain for the purposes of this Act, or
(b)if the indexation allowance equals or exceeds the unindexed gain, so as to extinguish it (in which case the disposal shall be one on which, after taking account of the indexation allowance, neither a gain nor a loss accrues)”.
(2)In subsection (2) of that section—
(a)for “subsection (1) above” there shall be substituted “ this Chapter ”,
(b)for paragraph (a) there shall be substituted—
“(a)“unindexed gain” means the amount of the gain on the disposal computed in accordance with this Part”, and
(c)in paragraph (b), for “gain or loss” there shall be substituted “ gain ”.
(3)After that subsection there shall be inserted—
“(2A)Notwithstanding anything in section 16 of this Act, this section shall not apply to a disposal on which a loss accrues.”
(4)In section 55 of that Act (assets acquired on a no gain/no loss disposal), after subsection (6) there shall be inserted—
“(7)The rules in subsection (8) below apply (after the application of section 53 but before the application of section 35(3) or (4)) to give the gain or loss for the purposes of this Act where—
(a)subsection (6) above applies to the disposal (the “disposal in question”) of an asset by any person (the “transferor”), and
(b)but for paragraph (b) of that subsection, the consideration the transferor would be treated as having given for the asset would include an amount or amounts of indexation allowance brought into account by virtue of section 56(2) on any disposal made before 30th November 1993.
(8)The rules are as follows—
(a)where (apart from this subsection) there would be a loss, an amount equal to the rolled-up indexation shall be added to it so as to increase it,
(b)where (apart from this subsection) the unindexed gain or loss would be nil, there shall be a loss of an amount equal to the rolled-up indexation, and
(c)where (apart from this subsection)—
(i)there would be an unindexed gain, and
(ii)the gain or loss would be nil but the amount of the indexation allowance used to extinguish the gain would be less than the rolled-up indexation,
the difference shall constitute a loss.
(9)In this section the “rolled-up indexation” means, subject to subsections (10) and (11) below, the amount or, as the case may be, the aggregate of the amounts referred to in subsection (7)(b) above; and subsections (10) and (11) below shall, as well as applying on the disposal in question, be treated as having applied on any previous part disposal by the transferor.
(10)Where, for the purposes of any disposal of the asset by the transferor, any amount falling within any, or any combination of, paragraphs (a) to (c) of section 38(1) is required by any enactment to be excluded, reduced or written down, the amount or aggregate referred to in subsection (9) above (or so much of it as remains after the application of this subsection and subsection (11) below on a previous part disposal) shall be reduced in proportion to any reduction made in the amount falling within the paragraph, or the combination of paragraphs, in question.
(11)Where the transferor makes a part disposal of the asset at any time, then, for the purposes of that and any subsequent disposal, the amount or aggregate referred to in subsection (9) above (or so much of it as remains after the application of this subsection and subsection (10) above on a previous part disposal by him or after the application of subsection (10) above on the part disposal) shall be apportioned between the property disposed of and the property which remains in the same proportions as the sums falling within section 38(1)(a) and (b).”
(5)In section 56 of that Act (amount of consideration on no gain/no loss disposals)—
(a)in subsection (2) for the words preceding paragraph (a) there shall be substituted “ On a no gain/no loss disposal by any person (“the transferor”) ”, and
(b)after that subsection there shall be added—
“(3)Where apart from this subsection—
(a)a loss would accrue on the disposal of an asset, and
(b)the sums allowable as a deduction in computing that loss would include an amount attributable to the application of the assumption in subsection (2) above on any no gain/no loss disposal made on or after 30th November 1993,
those sums shall be determined as if that subsection had not applied on any such disposal made on or after that date and the loss shall be reduced accordingly or, if those sums are then equal to or less than the consideration for the disposal, the disposal shall be one on which neither a gain nor a loss accrues.
(4)For the purposes of this section a no gain/no loss disposal is one which, by virtue of any enactment other than section 35(4), 53(1) or this section, is treated as a disposal on which neither a gain nor a loss accrues to the person making the disposal.”
(6)In section 110 of that Act (indexation allowance for share pools), after subsection (6) there shall be inserted—
“(6A)Where a disposal to a person acquiring or adding to a new holding is treated by virtue of any enactment as one on which neither a gain nor a loss accrues to the person making the disposal—
(a)section 56(2) shall not apply to the disposal (and, accordingly, the amount of the consideration shall not be calculated on the assumption that a gain of an amount equal to the indexation allowance accrues to the person making the disposal), but
(b)an amount equal to the indexation allowance on the disposal shall be added to the indexed pool of expenditure for the holding acquired or, as the case may be, held by the person to whom the disposal is made (and, where it is added to the indexed pool of expenditure for a holding so held, it shall be added after any increase required by subsection (8)(a) below).”
(7)Sections 103 (collective investment schemes, etc.), 111 (building society etc. shares), 182 to 184 (groups and associated companies) and 200 (oil industry assets) of that Act (all of which relate to indexation allowance) shall cease to have effect.
(8)In Schedule 7A to that Act (restriction on set-off of pre-entry losses), in paragraph 2—
(a)in sub-paragraph (2), for the definitions of “B” and “C” there shall be substituted—
“B is the amount of the item of relevant allowable expenditure for which an amount falls to be determined under this paragraph;
C is the total amount of all the relevant allowable expenditure”,
(b)in sub-paragraph (4), “except in relation to the calculation of any indexed rise” shall cease to have effect,
(c)after sub-paragraph (8) there shall be inserted—
“(8A)Where by virtue of section 55(8) the allowable loss accruing on the disposal of a pre-entry asset, or any part of the loss, is attributable to an amount (“the rolled-up amount”) of rolled-up indexation (as defined in section 55(9) to (11)), then, for the purposes of this paragraph—
(a)the total amount of all the relevant allowable expenditure shall be treated as increased by the rolled-up amount, and
(b)the amount of each item of relevant allowable expenditure shall be treated as increased by so much (if any) of the rolled-up amount as is attributable to that item.
(8B)Where—
(a)section 56(3) applies on the disposal of a pre-entry asset on which an allowable loss accrues, and
(b)in accordance with that subsection, the total amount of all the relevant allowable expenditure is reduced by any amount (“the global reduction”),
the amount of each item of relevant allowable expenditure shall be treated for the purposes of this paragraph as reduced by so much (if any) of the global reduction as is attributable to that item”, and
(d)in sub-paragraph (9), the definition of “indexed rise” shall cease to have effect.
(9)In paragraph 4 of that Schedule—
(a)in sub-paragraph (12) the words from “together” to the end, and

“(2A)In determining for the purposes of sub-paragraph (2)(a) above the amount of any loss which would have accrued if the asset had been disposed of at the relevant time at its market value at that time—
(a)it shall be assumed that the amendments of this Act made by section 93(1) to (5) of the Finance Act 1994 (indexation losses) had effect in relation to that disposal and, accordingly,
(b)references in those amendments and in subsection (11) of that section to 30th November 1993 shall be read as references to the day on which the relevant time falls.”
(11)This section shall have effect in relation to disposals made on or after 30th November 1993 and Schedule 12 to this Act (which gives transitional relief) shall have effect for the years 1993–94 and 1994–95.

“(6A)Notwithstanding anything in section 56(2), where in the case of the disposal of any pre-entry asset—
(a)any company has at any time between the relevant time and the time of the disposal acquired that asset or the equivalent asset, and
(b)the acquisition was either an acquisition in pursuance of a disposal on which there is treated by virtue of section 171 as having been neither a gain nor a loss accruing or an acquisition by virtue of which an asset is treated as the equivalent asset,
the items of relevant allowable expenditure and the times when those items shall be treated as having been incurred shall be determined for the purposes of this paragraph on the assumptions specified in sub-paragraph (6B) below.
(6B)Those assumptions are that—
(a)the company by reference to which the asset in question is a pre-entry asset, and
(b)the company mentioned in sub-paragraph (6A) above and every other company which has made an acquisition which, in relation to the disposal of that asset, falls within that sub-paragraph,
were the same person and, accordingly, that the pre-entry asset had been acquired by the company disposing of it at the time when it or the equivalent asset would have been treated for the purposes of this paragraph as acquired by the company mentioned in paragraph (a) above.
(7)In sub-paragraphs (5) to (6B) above the references to the equivalent asset, in relation to another asset acquired or disposed of by any company, are references to any asset which falls in relation to that company to be treated (whether by virtue of paragraph 1(8) above or otherwise) as the same as the other asset or which would fall to be so treated after applying, as respects other assets, the assumptions for which those sub-paragraphs provide.”
(3)In paragraph 9(2)(c) (cases where a group is relevant if a company was a member of it in the accounting period in which it joined another relevant group), after “paragraph (a)” there shall be inserted “ or (b) ”.

(3A)For the purposes of this paragraph and paragraph 2A below—
(a)where a dividend is paid for a period which is not an accounting period but falls wholly within an accounting period, it shall be treated as paid for that accounting period, and
(b)where a dividend (“the actual dividend”) is paid for a period which falls within two or more accounting periods—
(i)it shall be treated as if it were a number of separate dividends each of which is paid for so much of the period as falls wholly within an accounting period, and

(3)After that paragraph there is inserted—

(a)a dividend or dividends are paid for the period to persons resident in the United Kingdom,
(b)the amount or, as the case may be, aggregate amount of any dividends falling within paragraph (a) above is not less than—

(c)any dividends falling within that paragraph are paid not later than the time by which any dividend paid for the relevant accounting period is required by paragraph 2(1)(b) above to be paid;

(5)The modifications of paragraph 2 above referred to in sub-paragraph (3)(b) above are that—
(a)the references in sub-paragraphs (4) and (5) to the accounting period in question are to be read as references to the accounting period for which the dividend or dividends are paid,
(b)the references in those sub-paragraphs to sub-paragraph (1)(d) are to be read as references to sub-paragraph (3)(b) above, and
(c)the reference in the definition of “X” in sub-paragraph (6) to available profits is to be read as a reference to relevant profits.
(6)Paragraph 2(1)(d) above shall have effect as if for “50 per cent. of the company’s available profits” there were substituted “90 per cent. of the company’s net chargeable profits”.
(7)In paragraph 2(6) above, the definition of “X” shall have effect as if the reference to available profits were a reference to net chargeable profits.
(8)For the purposes of this paragraph—
(a)a period is an excluded period if it is an accounting period in respect of which a direction is given under section 747(1), and

and for the purposes of this sub-paragraph “unrestricted creditable tax” in relation to a company’s accounting period means the amount which would be its creditable tax for that period if the reference in section 751(6)(a) to Part XVIII did not include section 797”, and
(b)in sub-paragraph (5), after “available profits” there is inserted “ or, where the company is not a trading company, the chargeable profits ”.
