(ii)otherwise involved in the supply of the arrangements or proposed arrangements.]

(2)The information that may be published is (subject to sub-paragraph (4))—

(a)any information relating to arrangements within sub-paragraph (1)(a), or a person within sub-paragraph (1)(b) [F2or (c)], that is prescribed information for the purposes of paragraph [F3any provision of this Part];

[F8(4A)No information may be published under this paragraph in respect of a person involved in the supply of arrangements or proposed arrangements where there are reasonable grounds for believing that the person's involvement is limited to activities subject to legal professional privilege.]

(5)But where a person [F9within sub-paragraph (1)(b) or (c)] is also a person mentioned in sub-paragraph (4), nothing in sub-paragraph (4) is to be taken as preventing the publication under this paragraph of information so far as relating to the person's activities [F10as a promoter or a person involved in the supply of arrangements or proposed arrangements].

(6)Before publishing any information under this paragraph that identifies a person as [F11a person within sub-paragraph (1)(b) or (c)], HMRC must—

(a)inform the person that they are considering doing so, and

(b)give the person reasonable opportunity to make representations about whether it should be published.

[F12(7)Where the reference number is allocated in a case within paragraph 22(3)—

(a)information that identifies a person within sub-paragraph (1)(b) or (c) may not be published for the first time after the end of the period of one year beginning with the day on which the reference number is allocated;

(b)no information that identifies a person within sub-paragraph (1)(b) or (c) may be published (or continue to be published) after the end of the period of one year beginning with the day on which it is first published.

(8)In determining a period of one year for the purposes of sub-paragraph (7)(a) or (b), no account is to be taken of any period during which HMRC are prohibited from publishing the information because of proceedings before a court or tribunal.]
