(b)
investment income affecting, whether directly or indirectly, the amount of the special charge arose from the assets, and
(c)
the amount of that income exceeded what it would have been if all estate duty and capital gains tax payable in consequence of the death had been paid immediately on the occurrence of the death or other event whereby the estate duty or capital gains tax became payable,
the amount of the said investment income shall in ascertaining aggregate investment income for the purposes of this Part of this Act be treated as reduced by such amount as the Board may determine to be appropriate to offset the excess.
(2)
In this section “estate duty” includes estate duty payable under the law of Northern Ireland, and references to capital gains tax payable in consequence of a death shall be construed in accordance with subsection (8) and subsection (9)(a) of section 26 of the M15Finance Act 1965.

by reason of an error or mistake in a return or statement made for the purpose of the special charge. or for the purpose of income tax (including surtax), an assessment to the special charge was excessive, or
(b)
that after an assessment to the special charge became final, any adjustment was made under the provisions of the Income Tax Acts of any income which affected the ascertainment of aggregate investment income,
the Board shall make any appropriate adjustment.
49 Double taxation relief.
(1)
Part XIII of the M16Income Tax Act 1952 together with any other enactment relating or referring to double taxation relief, and any arrangements made under section 347 of that Act in relation to income tax, shall have effect in relation to the special charge and investment income as they are expressed to have effect in relation to income tax and income subject to income tax.
(2)
In paragraph 5(1)(b) of Schedule 16 to the said Act (limit on total credit). as it applies to the total income for the year 1967–68 of an individual whose investment income is subject to the special charge, the sum of the rates there specified (effective income tax rate plus effective surtax rate) shall be increased for the purpose of allowing credit for foreign tax in respect of investment income by adding the rate ascertained by dividing the special charge by the amount of his aggregate investment income.
50 Transactions designed to avoid liability.
(1)
Where, as a result of any action or decision taken by any person on or after 19th March 1968, an individual’s aggregate investment income is, apart from this section, less by any amount than it would have been but for that action or decision, his aggregate investment income shall for the purposes of this Part of this Act be increased by that amount unless it is shown to the satisfaction of the Board that avoidance of, or reduction of liability to, the special charge was not the main object or one of the main objects of the action or decision.
(2)
Without prejudice to the generality of subsection (1) above, the following shall be treated for the purposes of that subsection as actions or decisions as a result of which an individual’s aggregate investment income is less than it would have been but for the action or decision—

(4)
