(3)The subsidiary must, before the end of the period of three months beginning with the day on which it becomes aware of the true facts, provide an officer of the Board with an assessment (a self-assessment) of the amount of corporation tax which was due for the relevant accounting period on the basis of the true facts.

(a)a claim is withdrawn after an assessment for the relevant accounting period of the surrendering company has become final, and
