Valid from 21/07/2008
(1)Tax charged under section 151D above shall be charged at the rate or rates at which it would be charged if the amount on which it is charged, and any amount on which tax was previously charged under that section in relation to the death of the member or dependant, were part of the value transferred by the transfer of value made on the death of the member or dependant.
(2)The rate or rates at which tax is charged on that amount shall be determined as if that amount had formed the highest part of that value.
(3)Subsection (4) below applies where, before the time when the unauthorised payment is made, there have been one or more reductions of tax by virtue of the coming into force of a substitution of a new Table in Schedule 1 to this Act since the death of the member or dependant.
(4)The rate or rates at which tax is charged under section 151D above is to be determined as if the new Table effecting the reduction of tax (or the most recent reduction of tax) (“the applicable Table”) had been in force at the time of the death of the member or dependant, but subject to subsections (5) and (8) below.
(5)The nil-rate band maximum in the applicable Table is to be treated for the purposes of this section as reduced by the used-up percentage of the difference between—
(a)that nil-rate band maximum, and
(b)the nil-rate band maximum which was actually in force at the time of the death of the member or dependant.
(6)For the purposes of subsection (5) above “the used-up percentage” is—
where—
E is the amount by which M is greater than VT under section 8A(2) above in the case of the member or dependant; and
NRBM is the nil-rate band maximum at the time of the death of the member or dependant.
(7)The following provisions apply where—
(a)tax is charged under section 151D above, and
(b)immediately before the death of the member or dependant, the member or dependant had a spouse or civil partner (“the survivor”).
(8)If the survivor died before the time when the unauthorised payment is made, tax is charged as if the personal nil-rate band maximum of the member or dependant were appropriately reduced.
(9)In subsection (8) above—
“the personal nil-rate band maximum of the member or dependant” is the nil rate band maximum in the applicable Table, increased in accordance with section 8A above where that section effected an increase in that nil-rate band maximum in the case of the member or dependant (as a survivor of another deceased person), and
“appropriately reduced” means reduced by the amount (if any) by which the amount on which tax was charged at the rate of nil per cent. on the death of the survivor was increased by reason of the operation of section 8A above by virtue of the position of the member or dependant.
(10)If the survivor did not die before the time when the unauthorised payment is made, tax is to be charged on the death of the survivor as if the percentage referred to in section 8A(3) above in the case of the member or dependant were that specified in subsection (11) below.
(11)That percentage is—
where—
AE is the adjusted excess, that is the amount by which M would be greater than VT under section 8A(2) above in the case of the member or dependant if—
(a) the amount on which tax is charged under section 151D above were included in the value transferred by the chargeable value made on the death of the member or dependant, and
(b) the nil-rate band maximum at the time of the death were ANRBM; and
ANRBM is the adjusted nil-rate band maximum, that is the nil-rate band maximum in the applicable Table (as reduced under subsection (5) above where that subsection applies).]
