Finance Act 1967

Claims and adjustments

10 (1) A claim for relief under this Schedule—

(a) need not be for the full amount available,

(b) shall require the consent of the surrendering company notified to the inspector in such form as the Board may require, and

(c) must be made within two years from the end of the surrendering company's accounting period to which the claim relates.

(2) A claim for group relief by a company as a member of a consortium shall require the consent of each other member of the consortium, notified to the inspector in such form as the Board may require, in addition to the consent of the surrendering company.

(3) If the inspector discovers that any group relief which has been given is or has become excessive he may make an assessment to tax under Case VI of Schedule D in the amount which ought in his opinion to be charged.

This sub-paragraph is without prejudice to the making of an assessment under section 5(3)(c) of the [1964 c. 37.] Income Tax Management Act 1964, and to the making of all such other adjustments by way of discharge or repayment of tax or otherwise as may be required where a claimant company has obtained too much relief, or a surrendering company has forgone relief in respect of a corresponding amount.
