(1) Where—

(a) a company delivers a return for an accounting period ending in or at the end of the period specified in a section 11 notice served on the company, but

(b) there is another period so ending (an “outstanding period”) which it appears to an officer of the Board is or may be an accounting period but for which no return has been delivered before the relevant day,

(2) Subject to subsections (3) and (4) below, a determination under subsection (1) above shall have effect for the purposes of Parts VA, VI, IX and XI of this Act as if—

(a) it were a self-assessment made under section 11AA of this Act; and

(b) where the officer has insufficient information to determine whether the outstanding period is an accounting period, the period for which the determination is made were an accounting period of the company.

(3) If, after the determination is made—

(a) the company delivers a further return for a period ending in or at the end of the period specified in the section 11 notice,

(b) the period is, or is treated in the return as, an accounting period, and

(c) the return includes a self-assessment under section 11AA of this Act,

the self-assessment shall supersede the determination under subsection (1) above.

(4) If the company shows that it has delivered a return containing a self-assessment for the accounting period, or each accounting period, ending in or at the end of the period specified in the section 11 notice, the determination under subsection (1) above shall be of no effect.]
