Part 1 Introduction

Introduction

1
(1) The provisions of this Schedule have effect for supplementing section 11AA as regards the determination of the profits attributable to a permanent establishment in the United Kingdom of a company that is not resident in the United Kingdom (“the non-resident company”).
(2) In this Schedule “the separate enterprise principle” means the principle in section 11AA(2) (read with subsection (3) of that section).

Part 2 General provisions

Transactions treated as taking place at arm’s length

2
In accordance with the separate enterprise principle, transactions between the permanent establishment and any other part of the non-resident company are treated as taking place on such terms as would have been agreed between parties dealing at arm’s length.

Application of general provision as to allowable deductions

3
(1) Section 11AA(4) (general provision as to allowable deductions) applies whether or not the expenses are incurred by, or reimbursed by, the permanent establishment.
(2) The amount of expenses to be taken into account under section 11AA(4) is the actual cost to the non-resident company.

Prohibition of deductions for payments in respect of intangible assets

4
(1) No deduction is allowed in respect of royalties paid, or other similar payments made, by the permanent establishment to any other part of the non-resident company in respect of the use of intangible assets held by the company.
(2) This does not prevent a deduction in respect of any contribution by the permanent establishment to the costs of creation of an intangible asset.
(3) In this paragraph “intangible asset” has the meaning it has for accounting purposes, and includes any intellectual property (as defined in paragraph 2(2) of Schedule 29 to the Finance Act 2002).

Prohibition of deductions for interest or other financing costs

5
(1) No deduction is allowed in respect of payments of interest or other financing costs by the permanent establishment to any other part of the non-resident company, except as provided by sub-paragraph (2).
(2) The restriction in sub-paragraph (1) above does not apply to interest or other costs of financing that are payable in respect of borrowing by the permanent establishment in the ordinary course of a financial business carried on by it.
(3) In sub-paragraph (2) “financial business” means any of the following—
(a) banking, deposit-taking, money-lending or debt-factoring, or a business similar to any of those;
(b) dealing in commodity or financial futures.

Provision of goods or services for permanent establishment

6
(1) This paragraph applies where the non-resident company provides the permanent establishment with goods or services.
(2) If the goods or services are of a kind that the company supplies, in the ordinary course of its business, to third parties dealing with it at arm’s length, the matter is dealt with as a transaction to which the separate enterprise principle applies.
(3) If not, the matter is dealt with as an expense incurred by the non-resident company for the purposes of the permanent establishment.

Part 3 Provisions applicable to non-resident banks

Application of this Part

7
(1) The provisions of this Part of this Schedule have effect where the non-resident company is a bank.
“Bank” for this purpose has the meaning given by section 840A.
(2) Nothing in this Part of this Schedule shall be read as preventing the application of principles similar to those provided for in this Part in applying the separate enterprise principle to a non-resident company that is not a bank.

Non-resident banks: transfer of financial assets

8
(1) In accordance with the separate enterprise principle, transfers of loans and other financial assets between the permanent establishment and any other part of the company are recognised only if they would have taken place between independent enterprises.
(2) Such a transfer is not recognised where it cannot reasonably be considered that it is carried out for valid commercial reasons. For this purpose the obtaining of a tax advantage is not a valid commercial reason.

Loans by non-resident banks: attribution of financial assets and profits arising

9
(1) In accordance with the separate enterprise principle, loans and other financial assets, and profits arising from them, are attributed to a permanent establishment to the extent that they can reasonably be regarded as having been generated by the activities of the permanent establishment.

(a) concluding the loan agreement and disbursing the proceeds of the loan;
(b) administering the loan (including handling and monitoring the service of it) and holding and controlling any securities pledged.
(5) References in this paragraph to a financial asset include any financial risk in relation to a loan, or potential loan, that is capable of giving rise to fees or other receipts and for which the holding of capital is required (or would be required if the transaction were between parties at arm’s length).

Borrowing by non-resident banks: permanent establishment acting as agent or intermediary

10
(1) This paragraph applies where a permanent establishment—
(a) borrows funds for the purposes of another part of the non-resident company, and
(b) in relation to that borrowing acts only as an agent or intermediary.
(2) In such a case, in accordance with the separate enterprise principle—
(a) the profits attributable to the permanent establishment, and
(b) the capital attributable to the permanent establishment under section 11AA(3),
shall be that appropriate in the case of an agent acting at arm’s length, taking into account the risks and costs borne by the establishment.

SCHEDULE A2 Corporation tax: the non-corporate distribution rate: supplementary provisions

Part 1 General provisions

Introduction

1
The provisions of this Schedule supplement section 13AB (corporation tax: the non-corporate distribution rate).

Meaning of “non-corporate distribution”

2
(1) A “non-corporate distribution” means a distribution made by a company to a recipient who is not a company.
“Recipient” here means the person beneficially entitled to the distribution.
(2) A distribution made to a partnership is treated as made to the partners notwithstanding that the partnership is regarded as a legal person, or as a body corporate, under the law of the country or territory under which it is formed.

Calculation of company’s “underlying rate of corporation tax”

3
(1) A company’s underlying rate of corporation tax for an accounting period is determined as follows:
Step One
Take the company’s basic profits for the accounting period (“BP”).
Step Two
Find the amount of corporation tax chargeable on those profits apart from section 13AB (“CT”).
Step Three
The company’s underlying rate of corporation tax is the percentage determined as follows—
(CTBP)×100
(2) In determining CT—
(a) apply the rate of corporation tax fixed for companies generally, and
(b) if the company is entitled to and claims relief under section 13 (small companies' relief) or section 13AA (corporation tax starting rate), apply the provisions of those sections.
But take no account of any other relief that is given by reducing the amount or rate of tax payable (as opposed to the amount of the profits chargeable to tax).

Matching: distributions not exceeding basic profits

4
Where in an accounting period the total amount of the distributions made (or treated as made) by a company does not exceed the amount of its basic profits, the amount of the company’s basic profits matched with non-corporate distributions is equal to the total amount of the non-corporate distributions made (or treated as made) by the company in that period.

Matching: distributions exceeding basic profits

5
Where in an accounting period the total amount of the distributions made (or treated as made) by a company exceeds its basic profits, the amount of the company’s basic profits for that period matched with non-corporate distributions is—
(NCDD)×BP
where—
NCD is the total amount of the non-corporate distributions made (or treated as made) by the company in that period;
D is the total amount of all the distributions made (or treated as made) by the company in that period; and
BP is the amount of the company’s basic profits for that period.

Part 2 Allocation of excess NCDs to other companies

Allocation of excess NCDs to other companies

6
(1) This Part of this Schedule provides for the allocation to other companies of any amount by which the total amount of the non-corporate distributions made (or treated as made) by a company (the “distributing company”) in an accounting period (the “distribution period”) exceeds the amount of the company’s basic profits for that period that are matched under paragraph 5.
(2) That amount is referred to in this Schedule as “excess NCDs”.
(3) A company to which an amount of excess NCDs is allocated (a “recipient company”) is treated as if it had made a non-corporate distribution of that amount in the period to which it is allocated.

Allocation of excess NCDs to other group companies

7
(1) If at the end of the distribution period the distributing company is a member of a group, excess NCDs must be allocated, so far as possible, to the other group companies.
The allocation must be made in accordance with the following rules.
(2) Excess NCDs may not be allocated to a recipient company unless it has available profits for the accounting period to which they are to be allocated.
(3) The amount of a recipient company’s available profits for an accounting period is given by:
BP-NCD
where—
BP is the amount of that company’s basic profits for that accounting period, and
NCD is the total amount of non-corporate distributions made (or treated as made) by that company in that period.
(4) The maximum amount of excess NCDs that may be allocated to an accounting period of a recipient company is:
(NCDD)×AP
where—
NCD is the total amount of the non-corporate distributions made (or treated as made) by the distributing company in the distribution period;
D is the total amount of all the distributions made (or treated as made) by that company in that period; and
AP is the amount of the recipient company’s available profits for that period.
(5) In determining the amount of a company’s available profits at any time account shall only be taken of excess NCDs allocated to it by virtue of an allocation made before that time that remains (or so far as it remains) effective.

Allocation of excess NCDs: period or periods to which amount to be allocated

8
(1) Excess NCDs falling to be allocated to another company under paragraph 7 (allocation to other group companies) may be allocated to any accounting period identified by this paragraph as a corresponding accounting period.
If there is more than one such period, excess NCDs must be allocated to the first to the full extent possible before any allocation is made to the second, and so on.
(2) The accounting period of a recipient company that includes the last day of the distribution period is its first corresponding accounting period.
Unless that accounting period is shorter than the distribution period, it is the recipient company’s only corresponding accounting period.
(3) If the first corresponding accounting period is shorter than the distribution period, any subsequent accounting period of the recipient company beginning before the end of the period specified in sub-paragraph (4) is a corresponding accounting period.
(4) The period referred to in sub-paragraph (3) is a period—
(a) of the same length as the distribution period, and
(b) beginning on the same day as the recipient company’s first corresponding accounting period.

Allocation of excess NCDs: degrouping

9
(1) This paragraph applies where a company (“company A”) ceases to be a member of the same group as another company (“company B”) but the companies remain under the control of the same person or persons.
This is referred to below as “degrouping”.
(2) If at the end of any accounting period of company A ending on or after the degrouping but no more than two years after the degrouping—
(a) company A has excess NCDs that (apart from this paragraph) cannot be allocated to other companies,
(b) the business activities of company A and any other companies in the same group as that company are negligible, and
(c) the business activities of company B and any other companies in the same group as that company are not negligible,
the provisions of sub-paragraphs (3) to (5) below apply.
The end of the accounting period when the above conditions are met is referred to in those provisions as “the relevant time”.
(3) Company B and any other companies in the same group as that company at the relevant time (the “B group”) shall be treated for the purposes of allocating the excess NCDs as if they were members of the same group as company A.
(4) Any excess NCDs remaining after any allocation made by virtue of sub-paragraph (3) must be allocated—
(a) to company B or, if different, the company in the B group that at the relevant time has the greatest number of members who are not companies, and
(b) to the accounting period of that company that includes the relevant time.
This allocation is not subject to the restrictions in paragraph 7 on the amount that may be allocated to another company.
(5) If there is more than one company answering the description in sub-paragraph (4)(a), the excess NCDs shall be apportioned between them according to the amount of their basic profits for the accounting period to which the amount falls to be allocated.
(6) In this paragraph “control” shall be construed in accordance with section 416(2) to (6).

Allocation of excess NCDs: procedure

10
(1) The basic rule is that the allocation of excess NCDs to another company must be made by the distributing company with the agreement of the recipient company.
(2) If excess NCDs are not so allocated within nine months after—
(a) in a case within paragraph 7, the end of the distribution period, or
(b) in a case within paragraph 9, the relevant time within the meaning of that paragraph,
they may be allocated at any time thereafter by an officer of the Board.
(3) An allocation under sub-paragraph (1) or (2) may be varied—
(a) by agreement between the relevant companies, or
(b) if further excess NCDs are required to be allocated and no variation is agreed within one year after its becoming apparent that a variation is required, by an officer of the Board.
Any such variation may in turn be varied as mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
(4) No allocation or variation of an allocation of excess NCDs may be made after the end of the period of one year after whichever of the following last occurs—
(a) the final determination of the tax affairs of the distributing company in relation to the distribution period,
(b) in a case within paragraph 7, the final determination of the tax affairs of all recipient or potential recipient companies in relation to accounting periods that are or could be corresponding accounting periods, or
(c) in a case within paragraph 9, the final determination of the tax affairs of all recipient or potential recipient companies in relation to accounting periods to which an allocation may be made under that paragraph.
(5) If circumstances arise as a result of which the tax affairs of any such company for any such period are reopened, an allocation or variation of an allocation may (and shall if necessary) be made at any time before the end of the period of one year after the tax affairs of the company are again finally determined.
(6) For the purposes of sub-paragraphs (4) and (5) the tax affairs of a company for a period are finally determined when the amounts are conclusively determined within the meaning of paragraph 88 of Schedule 18 to the Finance Act 1998 (c. 36) (company tax returns: conclusiveness of amounts stated in return).
(7) References in this paragraph to variation of an allocation include reducing the amount allocated to nil.

Allocation of excess NCDs: amounts proving to be excessive

11
(1) This paragraph applies where an amount of excess NCDs allocated to another company in accordance with this Part of this Schedule later proves to be excessive.
(2) The excess shall revert to the distributing company.
(3) If allocations to two or more companies are involved, the amounts shall revert in the opposite order to that in which the allocations were made.
(4) In the case of allocations made at the same time, the amounts reverting to the distributing company shall be in proportion to the original allocations.

Allocation of excess NCDs to companies not resident in the United Kingdom

12
(1) The provisions of this Part of this Schedule as to the allocation of excess NCDs to other companies apply, with any necessary modifications, to companies that are not resident in the United Kingdom as they apply to companies that are so resident.
(2) In particular, references to the company’s basic profits and accounting periods shall be read in relation to a company that is not resident in the United Kingdom as references to what would have been the case if the company had been resident in the United Kingdom at all material times.

Part 3 Other supplementary provisions

Carry forward of excess NCDs

13
(1) Any excess NCDs not allocated to another company under Part 2 shall be carried forward by the distributing company.
(2) That company shall be treated as if it had made a non-corporate distribution of the amount carried forward (in addition to any distributions actually made by it) in its next accounting period.
(3) Where an allocation is made under paragraph 9(4) references in this paragraph to the distributing company shall be read as references to the company to which that allocation is made (which is treated by virtue of paragraph 6(3) as having made a distribution in the accounting period to which the allocation is made).

Definition of a group

14
(1) For the purposes of section 13AB and this Schedule a company and all its 51% subsidiaries form a group, and if any of those subsidiaries have 51% subsidiaries the group includes them and their 51% subsidiaries, and so on.
(2) The question whether a company is a 51% subsidiary shall be determined in accordance with section 838, subject to the following provisions.
(3) A company (“company A”) shall be treated for the purposes of this Schedule as if it were a 51% subsidiary of another company (“company B”) if company B has rights to, or in fact receives, more than 50% of the distributions made by company A.
(4) For the purposes of this paragraph a company shall be treated as not being the owner—
(a) of any share capital that it owns directly if a profit on the sale of the shares would be treated as a trading receipt of its trade, or
(b) of any share capital that it owns indirectly and that is owned directly by a body corporate for which a profit on the sale of the shares would be treated as a trading receipt of its trade.

Accounting period treated as ending if company ceases to be a member of a group

15
(1) Section 13AB and this Schedule apply in relation to an accounting period of a company in which it ceases to be a member of the group as if there were two accounting periods, one ending immediately before the company ceases to be a member of the group and the other consisting of the remainder of the period.
(2) For this purpose a company ceases to be in a group if it and another company cease to be in the same group, whether as a result it is no longer in a group, becomes a member of another group or continues to be in the same group as one or more other companies.

Treatment of distributions made otherwise than in an accounting period

16
For the purposes of section 13AB and this Schedule, a non-corporate distribution made by a company otherwise than in an accounting period of the company shall be treated as made in the next accounting period of the company.

Holding companies treated as carrying on a business

17
(1) For the purposes of section 13AB and this Schedule a holding company that is not otherwise carrying on a business shall be deemed to be carrying on a business and to be within the charge to corporation tax.
(2) For this purpose “a holding company” means a company that has one or more 51% subsidiaries from which it receives or has received one or more distributions.

SCHEDULE 4A CREATIVE ARTISTS: RELIEF FOR FLUCTUATING PROFITS

1 Introduction
This Schedule enables an individual (“the taxpayer”) to make a claim (an “averaging claim”) if his profits from a qualifying trade, profession or vocation (his “relevant profits”) fluctuate from one tax year to the next.

2 Qualifying trade, profession or vocation
(1) A trade, profession or vocation is a “qualifying trade, profession or vocation” if the taxpayer’s profits from it—
(a) are derived wholly or mainly from qualifying creative works, and
(b) are chargeable to tax under Case I or II of Schedule D.
(2) In sub-paragraph (1) “qualifying creative works” means—
(a) literary, dramatic, musical or artistic works, or
(b) designs,
created by the taxpayer personally or, where the trade, profession or vocation is carried on by the taxpayer in partnership, by one or more of the partners personally.

3 Circumstances in which claim may be made
(1) An averaging claim may be made if the taxpayer has been carrying on the qualifying trade, profession or vocation in two consecutive tax years and either—
(a) his relevant profits for one of the tax years are less than 75% of his relevant profits for the other, or
(b) his relevant profits for one (but not both) of the tax years are nil.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph 4 (years in respect of which averaging claim may be made) an averaging claim relates to both of the years involved.

4 Years in respect of which claim may be made
(1) An averaging claim may not be made in relation to a tax year if an averaging claim in respect of the same qualifying trade, profession or vocation has already been made in relation to a later tax year.
(2) An averaging claim may not be made in relation to a tax year in which—
(a) the taxpayer starts, or permanently ceases, to carry on the trade, profession or vocation, or
(b) the trade, profession or vocation begins or ceases to be a qualifying trade, profession or vocation.
(3) An averaging claim may be made in relation to a tax year which was the later year on a previous averaging claim.

5 Time limit for claim
An averaging claim must be made not later than twelve months after the 31st January next following the end of the later of the tax years to which it relates.
This is subject to paragraph 10(2) (extended time limit where profits adjusted for some other reason).

6 Adjustment of profits on averaging claim
(1) Where the taxpayer is entitled to make, and makes, an averaging claim, the amount taken to be his profits from the qualifying trade, profession or vocation for each of the tax years to which the claim relates is adjusted in accordance with this paragraph.
(2) If—
(a) the taxpayer’s relevant profits for one of the years amount to 70% or less of his relevant profits for the other year, or
(b) the taxpayer’s relevant profits for one (but not both) of the years are nil,
the amount of the adjusted profits for each of the years to which the claim relates is the average of the relevant profits for the two years.
(3) If the taxpayer’s relevant profits for one of the years amount to more than 70%, but less than 75%, of his relevant profits for the other year, the amount of the profits in each of the years is calculated as follows, so as to reduce the variation between them.
Step 1
The amount of the adjustment is given by the formula—
(D×3)-(P×0.75)
where—
D is the difference between the taxpayer’s relevant profits for the two tax years, and
P is the taxpayer’s relevant profits for the year in which those profits are higher.
Step 2
Add the amount of the adjustment to the taxpayer’s relevant profits for the year in which those profits are lower.
The result is the amount of the adjusted profits for that year.
Step 3
Subtract the amount of the adjustment from the taxpayer’s relevant profits for the year in which those profits are higher.
The result is the amount of the adjusted profits for that year
(4) Subject to the following provisions of this Schedule, the adjusted profits are taken to be the taxpayer’s relevant profits for the years to which the claim relates for all the purposes of the Income Tax Acts, including the further application of this Schedule.

7 How averaging claim is given effect
(1) An averaging claim relating to two tax years (“the earlier year” and “the later year”) is given effect in the later year.
(2) In so far as the claim involves an adjustment to the profits for the earlier year it is treated as a claim for the amount of the difference between—
(a) the amount in which the taxpayer is chargeable to tax for the earlier year (“amount A”), and
(b) the amount in which he would be so chargeable if effect were given to the adjustment in that year (“amount B”).
(3) That claim is given effect in the later year by increasing the amount referred to in section 59B(1)(b) of the Management Act (aggregate amount of payments on account made by the taxpayer) or, as the case may require, by increasing the amount of tax payable.
(4) Where effect falls to be given to two or more associated claims, amounts A and B above shall each be determined on the assumption that effect could have been, and had been, given to the other claim or claims in relation to the earlier year.
(5) Where this paragraph applies twice in relation to the same tax year, the increase or reduction in the amount of tax payable for that year as a result of the earlier application shall be disregarded in determining amounts A and B above for the purposes of the later application.

8 Extension of time for making other claims
(1) A claim by the taxpayer for relief under any other provision of the Income Tax Acts for either of the years to which an averaging claim relates (“the other claim”)—
(a) is not out of time if made on or before the last date on which the averaging claim could have been made, and
(b) if already made, may be amended or revoked on or before that date.
(2) If the other claim is made by being included in a return, the reference in sub-paragraph (1)(b) to amending or revoking the claim shall be read as a reference to amending the return by amending or omitting the claim.

9 Giving effect to late claim for other relief
(1) This paragraph applies where—
(a) the taxpayer makes or amends a claim for relief under any other provision of the Income Tax Acts for either of the years to which an averaging claim relates, and
(b) the making or amendment of the claim would be out of time but for paragraph 8.
(2) The claim or amendment is given effect in the later year.
(3) In so far as the claim or amendment relates to income of the earlier year, the amount claimed, or (as the case may be) the increase or reduction in the amount claimed, shall be equal to the difference between—
(a) the amount in which the taxpayer is chargeable to tax for the earlier year (“amount A”), and
(b) the amount in which he would be so chargeable on the assumption that effect could be, and was, given to the claim or amendment in relation to that year (“amount B”).
(4) That claim or amendment is given effect in the later year by increasing the amount referred to in section 59B(1)(b) of the Management Act (aggregate amount of payments on account made by the taxpayer) or, as the case may require, by increasing the amount of tax payable.
(5) Where effect falls to be given to two or more associated claims, amounts A and B above shall each be determined on the assumption that effect could have been, and had been, given to the other claim or claims in relation to the earlier year.
(6) In this paragraph “amend” includes revoke and “amendment” has a corresponding meaning.

10 Effect of later adjustment of profits
(1) If after the taxpayer has made an averaging claim, his relevant profits in either or both of the tax years to which the claim relates are adjusted for some other reason—
(a) the averaging claim shall be disregarded, and
(b) a further averaging claim may be made in relation to the taxpayer’s relevant profits as adjusted.
(2) A further averaging claim is not out of time provided it is made not later than twelve months after the 31st January next following the tax year in which the adjustment for the other reason is made.

11 Interpretation of references to profits
(1) References in this Schedule to the taxpayer’s profits from a qualifying trade, profession or vocation are to profits before making deductions for losses sustained in any tax year.
(2) If the taxpayer sustains a loss in the qualifying trade, profession or vocation in any tax year, the profits of that year for the purposes of this Schedule are nil.
This shall not be read as preventing the taxpayer from obtaining relief under the Income Tax Acts for a loss sustained by him in that or any other tax year.

12 Interpretation of references to amount chargeable to tax
In this Schedule any reference to the amount in which a person is chargeable to tax is a reference to the amount in which he is so chargeable after taking into account any relief or allowance for which a claim is made.

13 Meaning of “claim” and “associated claim”
(1) In this Schedule any reference to a claim includes a reference to an election or notice.
(2) For the purposes of this Schedule, two or more claims made by the same person are associated with each other if each of them is any of the following—
(a) a claim to which this Schedule applies, or
(b) a claim to which Schedule 1B to the Management Act applies (other claims involving more than one year to be given effect in later year),
and the same tax year is the earlier year in relation to each of those claims.
(3) In sub-paragraph (2)—
(a) the reference to a claim to which this Schedule applies includes amendments and revocations to which paragraph 9 above applies;
(b) the reference to a claim to which Schedule 1B to the Management Act applies includes amendments and revocations to which paragraph 4 of that Schedule applies.

14 Meaning of “tax year”
In this Schedule a “tax year” means a year of assessment.

Production of guaranteed return

3
(1) For the purposes of this Schedule a guaranteed return is produced from one or more disposals of futures or options wherever (taking all the disposals together where there is more than one) risks from fluctuations in the underlying subject matter are so eliminated or reduced as to produce a return from the disposal or disposals—
(a) the amount of which is not, to any significant extent, attributable (otherwise than incidentally) to any such fluctuations; and
(b) which equates, in substance, to the return on an investment of money at interest.
(2) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1) above the cases where risks from fluctuations in the underlying subject matter are eliminated or reduced shall be deemed to include any case where the main reason, or one of the main reasons, for the choice of that subject matter is—

(c) that any reference in that Act to a financial option within the meaning given by section 144(8) of that Act is a reference to any option that is not a traded option.

(b) at least one of the other transactions is a transaction entered into after the grant of the option, and
(c) the transaction or transactions entered into after the grant of the option is or include a disposal which is not itself the grant of an option,

(a) requires the grant of an option and the transaction entered into by the grantor in fulfilment of his obligations under that option to be treated for the purposes of this Schedule as a single transaction; or

(b) “the borrower”, in relation to such an arrangement, means the person to whom the securities are transferred under the arrangement; and
(c) “the lender” means the person making that transfer and to whom, in return, securities of the same kind and amount are to be transferred.
(2) References in this Schedule to the borrower or lender under an approved stock lending arrangement include any person acting as the nominee of the borrower or lender.

Treatment of interest earned on cash collateral

2
(1) This paragraph applies where in connection with an approved stock lending arrangement—
(a) the borrower pays to the lender an amount (“cash collateral”) by way of security for the performance of the obligation to transfer to the lender securities of the same kind and amount as those transferred by him;
(b) interest is earned by the lender on the whole of the cash collateral in respect of the period for which he holds it, and is paid to him without deduction of tax; and
(c) the lender pays to the borrower an amount (“rebate interest”) equal to the amount of interest earned by him on the cash collateral.
(2) Where this paragraph applies—
(a) the interest earned by the lender on the cash collateral shall be treated for all purposes of the Tax Acts as the income of the borrower and not as the income of the lender;
(b) the lender shall not be required to deduct from the payment of rebate interest any sum representing income tax thereon;
(c) no relief shall be given to the lender in respect of the payment under any provision of the Tax Acts; and
(d) the rebate interest shall not be regarded as the income of the borrower.
(3) This paragraph does not apply unless the amount of the rebate interest is identified as such by the parties separately from any fee or other amount payable in connection with the arrangement.

Application of paragraph 2 in case of chain of arrangements

3
(1) Where the lender under one or more approved stock lending arrangements (“the lending arrangements”) is also the borrower under one or more other such arrangements (“the borrowing arrangements”) entered into to enable him to fulfil his obligations under the former arrangements, the interest which by virtue of paragraph 2(2)(a) above as it applies in relation to the borrowing arrangements is treated as his (the “attributed interest”) shall be treated for the purposes of that paragraph as it applies in relation to the lending arrangements as interest earned by him on the cash collateral provided under those arrangements, as follows.
(2) Where the aggregate amount of the cash collateral provided under the borrowing arrangements equals that provided under the lending arrangements, the whole of the attributed interest shall be so treated.
(3) Where the aggregate amount of the cash collateral provided under the borrowing arrangements exceeds that provided under the lending arrangements, a part of the attributed interest shall be so treated.
That part shall be the proportion of the attributed interest which the aggregate amount of the cash collateral provided under the lending arrangements bears to that provided under the borrowing arrangements.
(4) Where the aggregate amount of the cash collateral provided under the borrowing arrangements is less than that provided under the lending arrangements, the attributed interest shall be treated as earned by him on a part of the cash collateral provided under the lending arrangements.
That part shall be an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the cash collateral provided under the borrowing arrangements.

Part II SHARED VANS

Introduction

4
(1) This Part of this Schedule applies to a van for a year if it is a shared van for any period in the year.
(2) A van is a shared van for a period if the period is one throughout which the van is available concurrently to more than one employee of the same employer.
(3) A van is also a shared van for a period if—
(a) the period is one throughout which the van is available to different employees of the same employer, but
(b) the circumstances are such that the employee or employees to whom the van is available at any given time in the period are not necessarily the same as the employee or employees to whom it is available at any other given time in the period.
(4) But if the van is available to one employee only for a period exceeding 30 days (an exclusive period)—
(a) the exclusive period shall not count towards any period that would otherwise fall within sub-paragraph (3) above;
(b) any period falling within sub-paragraph (3) above shall be treated as ending when the exclusive period begins (without prejudice to the start after the exclusive period of a further period falling within sub-paragraph (3) above).
(5) If a van would (apart from this sub-paragraph) be treated as shared during part of a day it shall be treated as shared throughout the day.

Benefit to employee

5
(1) This paragraph applies where for any year this Part of this Schedule—
(a) applies to a van, or
(b) applies to each of two or more vans made available by the same employer.
(2) For the purposes of this paragraph a participating employee is an employee to whom—
(a) the van is available for his private use while it is a shared van (where only one van is involved),
(b) one of the vans is available for his private use while it is a shared van (where more than one van is involved), or
(c) some or all of the vans are available for his private use while they are shared vans (where more than one van is involved);
but an employee is not a participating employee unless he makes private use of the van, or (if more than one is involved) he makes private use of at least one of them, at least once while it is a shared van.
(3) In sub-paragraph (2) above—
(a) any reference to a van being available for an employee’s private use includes a reference to the van being available for the private use of others being members of his family or household, and
(b) any reference to an employee making private use of a van includes a reference to a member of his family or household making private use of it.
(4) This paragraph shall apply to each participating employee in the same way, irrespective of—
(a) the number available to a particular employee of the vans involved;
(b) the fact that a particular van involved is or is not available to him or used by him;
(c) the extent to which a particular van involved is available to him or used by him.
(5) Where this paragraph applies—
(a) find the basic value of the van for the year or (as the case may be) the basic value for the year of each van involved;
(b) take that basic value or (as the case may be) the aggregate of those basic values;
(c) find for each participating employee a portion of the figure taken under paragraph (b) above by dividing it equally among the participating employees.
(6) The figure found for a participating employee shall be taken to be the cash equivalent of the benefit to him in the year of—
(a) the van available to him while it is a shared van (where only one van is involved or only one of the vans involved is available to him), or
(b) the vans available to him while they are shared vans (where more than one van is involved and more than one of them is available to him).

(2) Where for any part of the year—
(a) the van is not a shared van, or
(b) the van is incapable of use,
its basic value is the amount ascertained under sub-paragraph (1) above (the full value) reduced by an amount which bears to the full value the same proportion as the number of excluded days in the year bears to 365.
(3) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (2) above a van is to be treated as being incapable of use on any day if the day falls within a period, of 30 days or more, throughout which the van is incapable of being used at all.
(4) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (2) above an excluded day is a day on which the van falls within paragraph (a) or (b) of that sub-paragraph.

(1) In a case where—
(a) a figure is found under paragraph 5 or 7 above for a participating employee for a year, and
(b) the employee makes a claim for this paragraph to be applied,
the figure found for the employee for the year shall be taken to be the alternative figure found under this paragraph.
(2) The alternative figure is a figure found by—
(a) taking for each van involved the number of relevant days;
(b) aggregating the numbers found under paragraph (a) above where more than one van is involved;
(c) multiplying the number found under paragraph (a) (or paragraphs (a) and (b)) above by £5.
(3) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (2)(a) above a relevant day is a day which falls in the year and during which (or part of which) the employee, or a member of his family or household, makes private use of the van concerned while it is a shared van.
(4) For the purposes of section 95 of the Taxes Management Act 1970 (incorrect return etc.) a claim under this paragraph shall be taken to be a claim for relief.

9
(1) Where this Part of this Schedule applies and in the year concerned a participating employee is required, as a condition of the van or vans being available for his private use, to pay any amount of money (whether by way of deduction from his emoluments or otherwise) for that use, then—
(a) if the figure found for the employee for the year under paragraph 5 or 7 or 8 above exceeds the relevant sum, the figure shall be taken to be a figure equal to the excess;
(b) if the relevant sum exceeds or is equal to the figure found for the employee for the year under paragraph 5 or 7 or 8 above, the figure shall be taken to be nil.
(2) For the purposes of this paragraph the relevant sum shall be found by—
(a) taking for any van involved the amount paid by the employee, as a condition of it being available for his private use, in respect of the period when the van is a shared van in the year concerned, and
(b) where more than one van is involved, aggregating the amounts found under paragraph (a) above.

(b) multiply that figure by the number of whole months during which the loan was outstanding in that year, and divide by 12;
(c) multiply the result by the official rate of interest in force during the period when the loan was outstanding in that year or, if the official rate changed during that period, the average rate during that period ascertained by reference to the number of days in the period and the number of days for which each rate was in force.
For the purposes of this paragraph, months begin on the sixth day of the calendar month.

Where for any year interest is paid on a loan and part of that interest is eligible for relief, the calculation of the cash equivalent under Part II of this Schedule is modified as follows—
(a) where paragraph 4 applies, the maximum amounts referred to in sub-paragraph (a)(i) and (ii) of that paragraph shall be proportionately reduced by reference to the proportion which so much of that interest paid for that year as is not eligible for relief bears to the whole of the interest so paid;
(b) where paragraph 5 applies, the maximum amounts referred to in sub-paragraph (3)(b) of that paragraph shall be proportionately reduced by reference to the proportion which so much of the interest paid on each such amount for the day in question as is not eligible for relief bears to the whole of the interest so paid; and
(c) the amount of interest eligible for relief shall be left out of account in ascertaining for the purposes of paragraph 3(1)(b) above the amount of interest paid for that year.

(1) Where for any year—
(a) no interest is paid on a loan, but
(b) had interest been paid on it at the official rate part of that interest would have been eligible for relief,
then the calculation of the cash equivalent under Part II of this Schedule shall be modified as provided by paragraph 8(a) or (b) above with the substitution for the references to the amounts of interest paid or not eligible for relief of references to the amounts (ascertained in accordance with the following provisions of this paragraph) which would have been paid or would not have been eligible for relief.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph 8(a) above as applied by this paragraph, the whole amount of interest at the official rate which would have been paid for any year shall be taken to be the amount payable for that year calculated in accordance with paragraph 4 above (disregarding paragraph 8); and the amount of that interest which would not have been eligible for relief shall be ascertained—
(a) by finding that amount on the assumption that the amount referred to in paragraph 4(a)(i) was the amount outstanding for the whole year;
(b) by finding that amount on the assumption that the amount referred to in paragraph 4(a)(ii) was the amount outstanding for the whole year; and
(c) by adding together the resulting figures and dividing by 2.
(3) For the purposes of paragraph 8(b) above as applied by this paragraph, the amount of interest which would have been paid and the amount of it which would not have been eligible for relief shall be ascertained on the assumption that interest at the official rate was paid daily throughout the year on the maximum amount outstanding on each day.

10
(1) If—
(a) a person has a loan on which no interest is paid and of which the benefit was obtained by reason of his or any other person’s employment (“the employer’s loan”); and
Source—1976 Sch.8 12-14; 1983 (No.2) s.4
(b) that person or his wife or her husband has another loan which was made later than, or at the same time as, the employer’s loan and interest on which is, in whole or in part, eligible for relief;
then, for the purposes of determining whether, had interest been paid on the employer’s loan at the official rate, the whole or any part of that interest would have been eligible for relief, sections . . . 355(1) to (4), 356 to 358 and 360 to 365 shall have effect as if the employer’s loan were made after any other loan which falls within paragraph (b) above and which, in the context of the application of sections 354(1) to (4) and 355(5), relates to the same land, caravan or house boat as does the employer’s loan.
Words in Sch. 7 para. 10(1)(2) repealed (27.7.1993 with effect as mentioned in s. 57 of the amending Act) by 1993 c. 34, ss. 57, 213, Sch. 23 Pt. III(1)
(2) Where such a loan is made as is mentioned in paragraph (b) of sub-paragraph (1) above, sections . . . 355(1) to (4), 356 to 358 and 360 to 365 have effect in accordance with that sub-paragraph with respect to so much of the interest referred to therein as would be paid on and after the day on which the loan is made; and paragraph 9(3) above shall have effect for the purpose of determining how much of that interest would have been eligible for relief.

11
(1) Where in any year a person has, alone or together with his wife or her husband, two or more loans—
(a) on which no interest is paid, and
(b) which, assuming the application of sections 354(1) to (4) and 355(5), would relate, in the context of those sections, to the same land, caravan or house boat,
then, for the purpose of determining whether, had interest been paid on any of those loans, it would, in whole or in part, have been eligible for relief, it shall be assumed in the first instance that those loans constitute a single loan (equal in amount to the aggregate of the actual loans) and to the extent that, had interest been paid on that single loan, it would have been eligible for relief, the relief shall then be attributed first to the earliest of the actual loans and, if all the relief is not thereby attributed, the balance shall be attributed to the next in time and so on with any of the balance remaining until the relief is wholly attributed.
(2) Nothing in sub-paragraph (1) above affects the operation of paragraph 10 above in relation to the priority which it gives to a loan falling within sub-paragraph (1)(b) of that paragraph, but any question which of two or more loans falling within sub-paragraph (1) above is the earlier shall be determined without regard to that paragraph.

Sch. 8 para. 8(a) repealed (with effect in accordance with s. 137(6) of the repealing Act) by Finance Act 1995 (c. 4), s. 137(1), Sch. 29 Pt. 8(20), Note
(b) those who have not been employed by a relevant employer for a minimum period (of not more than three years) specified in the scheme;
and for this purpose “relevant employer” means the scheme employer or any person who pays the emoluments of any of the employees to whom the scheme relates.

Profit periods

9
The scheme must identify the accounting period or periods by reference to which any profit-related pay is to be calculated.

10
(1) Subject to sub-paragraphs (2) and (3) below, any such accounting period must be a period of 12 months.
(2) If the scheme is a replacement scheme, the first of two profit periods may be a period of less than 12 months, but the scheme may not provide for more than two profit periods.
(3) The scheme may make provision for a profit period to be abbreviated where registration of the scheme is cancelled with effect from a day after the beginning of the period; and a scheme making such provision may exclude the operation of all or any of the provisions of paragraph 13(4) and (5) or (as the case may be) paragraph 14(3)(b), (4) and (5) below in relation to the determination of the distributable pool for an abbreviated period.
(4) For the purposes of this paragraph, a scheme is a replacement scheme if—
(a) it succeeds another scheme (or two or more other schemes) registration of which was cancelled under section 178(1)(a) on the ground of a change in the employment unit or in the circumstances relating to the scheme; and
(b) that change occurred not more than three months before the beginning of the first (or only) profit period of the new scheme, and the Board are satisfied that it was not brought about with a view to the registration of the new scheme or in circumstances satisfying the conditions in section 177(1)(a), (b) and (c); and
(c) not less than one half of the employees to whom the new scheme relates were employees to whom the previous scheme (or any of the previous schemes) related at the time of that change.

Distributable pool

11
The scheme must contain provisions by reference to which the aggregate sum that may be paid to employees in respect of a profit period (“the distributable pool”) may be determined.

12
Except where the scheme is a replacement scheme (within the meaning of paragraph 10 above), the provisions for the determination of the distributable pool must employ either the method specified in paragraph 13 below (“method A”) or the method specified in paragraph 14 below (“method B”).

13
(1) Method A is that the distributable pool is equal to a,fixed percentage of the profits of the employment unit in the profit period.
Repealed by 1989 ss.61and 187and Schs.4 para.10(2)(a)and 17 Part IV.
(1A) That percentage must be a fixed percentage specified in the scheme and, if the scheme relates to more than one period, must be the same for each period.
1989 s.61and Sch.4 para.10(2)(b)(i).
(2) That percentage must be such that, on the assumption as to profits mentioned in sub-paragraph (3)below, it will produce a distributable pool equal to not less than 5per cent. of the standard pay of the employment unit.
Repealed by 1989 ss.61and 187and Schs.4 para.10(1), (2)(a)and 17 Part IV.
(3) The assumption referred to in sub-paragraph (2)above is that the profits in the profit period are the same as those in a base year specified in the scheme; and that base year must be a period of 12months ending at a time within the period of two years immediately preceding the profit period, or the first of the profit periods, to which the scheme relates.
(4) Notwithstanding sub-paragraph (1) above, a scheme employing method A may include provision for disregarding profits in the profit period so far as they exceed 160 per cent. (or such greater percentage as may be specified in the scheme) of—
(a) if the profit period is the first or only period to which the scheme relates, the profits for a base year specified in the scheme;
1989 s.61and Sch.4 para.10(2)(b)(ii).Previously
“the base year referred to in sub-paragraph (3) above”.
(b) in any other case, the profits for the previous profit period.
(5) Notwithstanding sub-paragraph (1) above, a scheme employing method A may include provision to the effect that there shall be no distributable pool if the profits in the profit period are less than an amount specified in, or ascertainable by reference to, the scheme; but that amount must not exceed the profits for a base year specified in the scheme.
1989 s.61and Sch.4 para.10(2)(b)(iii).Previously
“must be less than the amount which would produce a distributable pool of 5 per cent. of the standard pay of the employment unit”.
(6) The base year referred to in sub-paragraph (4)(a) and sub-paragraph (5) above must be a period of 12 months ending at a time within the period of two years immediately preceding the profit period, or the first of the profit period, to which the scheme relates
1989 s.61and Sch.4 para.10(2)(b)(iv).Previously
“(6) The references in this paragraph to the standard pay of the employment unit are references to the amount which the scheme employer, at the time when he applies for registration of the scheme, reasonably estimates will be the annual equivalent of the pay, at the beginning of the profit period or first profit period, of the employees to whom the scheme will then relate; and for this purpose an estimate shall (in the absence of evidence to the contrary) be taken to be a reasonable one if it is based on the most recent information available to the employer as to the monthly or annual pay of the relevant employees.”.
(7) Any provision included in a scheme by virtue of sub-paragraph (4) or (5) above may take effect either from the scheme’s first profit period or from any later profit determined in accordance with the scheme.
1989 s.61and Sch.4 para.11.

13A
(1) Where a scheme includes provision by virtue of paragraph 13(4) or (5) above the scheme must be so framed that in arriving at the profits for the base year or for the previous profit period any profit-related pay and any secondary Class I contributions in respect of it are accorded the same accountancy treatment as is accorded to any profit-related pay and any secondary Class I contributions in respect of it in arriving at the profits in the profit period.
(2) In sub-paragraph (1) above—
(a) “profit-related pay” means profit-related pay under whatever scheme;
(b) “secondary Class I contributions” means secondary Class I contributions under Part I of the Social Security Act 1975 or Part I of the Social Security (Northern Ireland) Act 1975 or Part I of the Social Security Contributions and Benefits Act 1992 or Part I of the Social Security Contributions and Benefits (Northern Ireland) Act 1992.
(3) Sub-paragraph (1) above shall apply notwithstanding anything in paragraph 19 below.
(4) Where a scheme includes provision by virtue of paragraph 13(4) above the scheme must also include provision that if the pay for the profit period is less than the pay for the base year or for the previous profit period (as the case may be) the percentage to be applied for the purposes of the provision included by virtue of paragraph 13(4) above shall be the increased percentage (instead of any other percentage).
(5) The increased percentage must be one arrived at by—
(a) taking the percentage that would be applied for the purposes of the provision included by virtue of paragraph 13(4) above apart from the provision included by virtue of sub-paragraph (4) above, and
(b) adding the percentage found by expressing the difference in pay as a percentage of the profits for the base year or for the previous profit period (as the case may be).
(6) For the purposes of this paragraph—
(a) the pay for the profit period or for the previous profit period or for the base year is the pay paid to employees in respect of employment in the period or year concerned in the employment unit concerned;
(b) the difference in pay is the difference between the pay for the profit period and the pay for the previous profit period or for the base year (as the case may be);
and any profit-related pay shall be ignored in applying paragraph (a) above.

14
(1) Method B is that the distributable pool is—
(a) if the profit period is the first or only profit period to which the scheme relates, a percentage of a notional pool of an amount specified in the scheme;
(b) in any other case, a percentage of the distributable pool for the previous profit period.
(2) The amount of the notional pool referred to in sub-paragraph (1)above must not be less than 5per cent. of the standard pay of the employment unit.
Repealed by 1989 ss.61and 187, Schs.4 para.10(1)and 17 Part IV.
(3) The percentage referred to in sub-paragraph (1) above must be either—
(a) that arrived at by expressing the profits in the profit period as a percentage of the profits in the preceding period of 12 months; or
(b) the percentage mentioned in paragraph (a) above reduced (if it is more than 100) or increased (if it is less than 100) by a specified fraction of the difference between it and 100;
and the reference in paragraph (b) above to a specified fraction is a reference to a fraction of not more than one half specified in the scheme.
(4) Notwithstanding sub-paragraph (1) above, a scheme employing method B may include provision for disregarding profits in the profit period so far as they exceed 160 per cent. (or such greater percentage as may be specified in the scheme) of the profits in the preceding period of 12 months.
(5) Notwithstanding sub-paragraph (1) above, a scheme employing method B may include provision to the effect that there shall be no distributable pool if the profits in the profit period are less than an amountspecified in, or ascertainable by reference to, the scheme; but that amount must not exceed the profits in the period of 12 months immediately preceding the first or only profit period to which the scheme relates.
Repealed by 1989 ss.61and 187, Schs.4 paras.10(2)(a), 12and 17 Part IV.
1989 s.61and Sch.4 para.10(2)(c).Previously
“must be less than the amount which would produce a distributable pool of 5 per cent. of the standard pay of the employment unit.”.
(6) Where by virtue of a provision of the kind described in sub-paragraph (5) above there is no distributable pool for a profit period, any comparison required in accordance with sub-paragraph (1)(b) to be made with the distributable pool for that period shall be made with what would have been the pool but for sub-paragraph (5).
(7) In this paragraph “standard pay of the employment unit” has the same meaning as it has in paragraph 13above.
Repealed by 1989 ss.61and 187, Schs.4 paras.10(2)(a), 12and 17 Part IV.
(8) Any provision included in a scheme by virtue of sub-paragraph (3)(b), (4) or (5) above may take effect either from the scheme’s first profit period or from any later profit period determined in accordance with the scheme.
1989 s.61and Sch.4 para.13.

14A
(1) Where a scheme includes provision to give effect to paragraph 14(3) above or provision by virtue of paragraph 14(4) above the scheme must be so framed that in arriving at the profits in the preceding period of 12 months any profit-related pay and any secondary Class I contributions in respect of it are accorded the same accountancy treatment as is accorded to any profit-related pay and any secondary Class I contributions in respect of it in arriving at the profits in the profit period.
(2) Where a scheme includes provision by virtue of paragraph 14(5) above the scheme must be so framed that in arriving at the profits in the relevant period of 12 months any profit-related pay and any secondary Class I contributions in respect of it are accorded the same accountancy treatment as is accorded to any profit-related pay and any secondary Class I contributions in respect of it in arriving at the profits in the profit period; and for this purpose the relevant period of 12 months is the period of 12 months immediately preceding the first or only profit period to which the scheme relates.
(3) In sub-paragraphs (1) and (2) above—
(a) “profit-related pay” means profit-related pay under whatever scheme;

(4) Sub-paragraphs (1) and (2) above shall apply notwithstanding anything in paragraph 19 below.
(5) Where a scheme includes provision by virtue of paragraph 14(4) above the scheme must also include provision that if the pay for the profit period is less than the pay for the preceding period of 12 months the percentage to be applied for the purposes of the provision included by virtue of paragraph 14(4) above shall be the increased percentage (instead of any other percentage).
(6) The increased percentage must be one arrived at by—
(a) taking the percentage that would be applied for the purposes of the provision included by virtue of paragraph 14(4) above apart from the provision included by virtue of sub-paragraph (5) above, and
(b) adding the percentage found by expressing the difference in pay as a percentage of the profits in the preceding period of 12 months.
(7) For the purposes of this paragraph—
(a) the pay for the profit period or for the preceding period of 12 months is the pay paid to employees in respect of employment in the period concerned in the employment unit concerned;
(b) the difference in pay is the difference between the pay for the profit period and the pay for the preceding period of 12 months;
and any profit-related pay shall be ignored in applying paragraph (a) above.

15
If the scheme is a replacement scheme (within the meaning of paragraph 10 above), it must provide for the distributable pool for a profit period to be equal to a specified percentage of the profits for the period.

Payment from distributable pool etc.

16
The scheme must provide for the whole of the distributable pool to be paid to employees in the employment unit.

17
The scheme must make provision as to when payments will be made to employees.

18
(1) The provisions of the scheme must be such that employees participate in the scheme on similar terms.
(2) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1) above, the fact that the payments to employees vary according to the levels of their remuneration, the length of their service or similar factors shall not be regarded as meaning that they do not participate on similar terms.

Ascertainment of profits

(a) each profit period of the employment unit; and
(b) any other period the profits for which must be ascertained for the purposes of this Chapter.

1985 c. 6.
(4) Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this paragraph, a profit and loss account prepared for the purposes of the scheme must not make any deduction, in arriving at the profits or losses of the employment unit, for the remuneration of any person excluded from the scheme by virtue of paragraph 7 above.

(3) In any case where—
(a) the shares attributed to an individual consist of or include shares which he or any other person has a right to acquire; and
(b) the circumstances are such that, if that right were to be exercised, the shares acquired would be shares which were previously unissued and which the company is contractually bound to issue in the event of the exercise of the right;
then, in determining at any time prior to the exercise of that right whether the number of shares attributed to the individual exceeds a particular percentage of the ordinary share capital of the company, that ordinary share capital shall be taken to be increased by the number of unissued shares referred to in paragraph (b) above.

(5) In relation to shares comprised in the new holding, section 186(5) shall apply as if the references in that subsection to the initial market value of the shares were references to their locked-in value immediately after the company reconstruction, which shall be determined as follows—
(a) ascertain the aggregate amount of locked-in value immediately before the reconstruction of those shares comprised in the original holding which had at that time the same locked-in value; and
(b) distribute that amountpro rata among—

Application of £30,000 threshold

7
(1) This pargraph specifies how the £30,000 threshold in section 148(1) applies.
(2) Tax is charged only on the excess over £30,000, but the threshold applies to the aggregate amount of payments and other benefits provided in respect of the same person—
(a) in respect of the same employment, or
(b) in respect of different employments with the same employer or associated employers (see paragraph 8).
(3) If payments and other benefits are received in different tax years, the £30,000 is set against the amount of payments and other benefits received in earlier years before those of later years.
(4) If more than one payment or other benefit is received in a tax year in which the threshold is exceeded—
(a) the £30,000 (or the balance of it) is set against the amounts of cash benefits as they are received, and
(b) any balance at the end of the year is set against the aggregate amount of non-cash benefits received in the year.

Exclusion or reduction of charge in case of foreign service

(a) in certain cases, tax is not charged under section 148 (see paragraph 10);
(b) in other cases the amount charged to tax is reduced (see paragraph 11).
(2) “Foreign service" for this purpose means—
(a) service in or after the tax year 1974-75 such that—
(i) the emoluments from the employment were not chargeable under Case I of Schedule E (or would not have been so chargeable, had there been any), or
(ii) a deduction equal to the whole amount of the emoluments from the employment was or would have been allowable under paragraph 1 of Schedule 2 to the Finance Act 1974, paragraph 1 of Schedule 7 to the Finance Act 1977 or section 192A or 193(1) of this Act (foreign earnings deduction);

11
(1) Where there is foreign service and paragraph 10 does not apply, the person chargeable to tax under section 148 may claim relief in the form of a proportionate reduction of the amount charged to tax.
The amount charged to tax means the amount after any reduction under paragraph 7 (application of £30,000 threshold).
(2) The proportion is that which the length of the foreign service bears to the whole length of service in the employment before the relevant date.
(3) A person is not entitled to relief under this paragraph in so far as the relief, together with any personal relief allowed to him, would reduce the amount of income on which he is chargeable below the amount of income tax which he is entitled—
(a) to charge against any other person, or
(b) to deduct, retain or satisfy out of any payment which he is liable to make.
(4) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)—
(a) “personal relief” means relief under Chapter I of Part VII; and

(a) in the case of a cash benefit, the amount received, and
(b) in the case of a non-cash benefit, the cash equivalent of the benefit.

(b) the cash equivalent determined in accordance with the provisions of section 596B (cash equivalent of benefits in kind for purposes of charge to tax on benefits under non-approved retirement benefits scheme).

Notional interest treated as paid if amount charged in respect of beneficial loan

13
(1) This paragraph applies where a person is chargeable to tax under section 148 in any tax year on an amount which consists of or includes an amount representing the cash equivalent of the benefit of a loan determined in accordance with Part II of Schedule 7.
(2) Where this paragraph applies, the person chargeable is treated as having paid interest on the loan of the same amount as the cash equivalent so determined.
This is subject to application of the £30,000 threshold: see sub-paragraph (5) below.
(3) The interest is treated as paid for all the purposes of the Tax Acts (other than section 148 and this Schedule), but not so as to make it—
(a) income of the person making the loan, or
(b) relevant loan interest to which section 369 applies (mortgage interest payable under deduction of tax).
(4) The interest is treated as accruing during and paid at the end of the tax year or, if different, the period in the tax year during which the loan is outstanding.
(5) No amount of interest is treated as paid under this paragraph in a tax year in which, after applying the £30,000 threshold in section 148(1), no amount falls to be charged to tax.
If in any tax year the effect of the £30,000 threshold is that some but not all of the amount otherwise chargeable is charged to tax, the amount of interest treated as paid is limited to the amount charged to tax.

Giving effect to the charge to tax

14
(1) Tax under section 148 is charged on the employee or former employee, whether or not he is the recipient of the payment or other benefit.
(2) After the death of the employee or former employee, any amount chargeable to tax under section 148 shall be assessed and charged upon his personal representatives and is a debt due from and payable out of the estate.

(ii) the life assured under the new policy is different to the life assured under the earlier policy but that is the only difference to what the position would have been had the earlier policy continued to run,
(c) paragraph 20ZA below applies to a policy and the event is the reinstatement or replacement of the policy as mentioned in paragraph 20ZA(4),
(d) the event is the issue or variation of a policy in relation to which paragraph 29 of Schedule 39 to the Finance Act 2012 applies, or
(e) the event is an assignment falling within paragraph B2(3)(e) below where the assignment is a mortgage endowment assignment.
(5) In sub-paragraph (3)(f)(ii) “relevant period” means any period of 12 months beginning at or after the time of the variation.
(6) A premium limit event or a variation is to be ignored for the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)(a) or (f) if its effect is nullified before 6 July 2013.
(7) In the case of a premium limit event which occurs on or after 6 April 2013, in sub-paragraph (6) the reference to 6 July 2013 is to be read as a reference to the end of the period of 3 months after the day on which the premium limit event occurs.
(8) In the case of an event mentioned in sub-paragraph (3)(a) or (f), sub-paragraph (4)(a) applies only if the policy is a pure protection policy both before and after the premium limit event or variation.
(9) A “premium limit event” occurs in relation to a protected policy if—
(a) the policy is varied or a relevant option is exercised so as to change the terms of the policy, and
(b) as a result of the variation or exercise of the relevant option—
(i) the period over which premiums are payable under the policy is or could be lengthened, or
(ii) the total amount of the premiums payable under the policy in any relevant period is or could be increased,
or both.
(10) A “premium limit event” also occurs in relation to a protected policy if on or after 6 April 2013—
(a) the policy is varied or a relevant option is exercised so as to change the terms of the policy, and
(b) as a result of the variation or exercise of the relevant option—
(i) the period over which premiums are payable under the policy is or could be shortened, or
(ii) the total amount of the premiums payable under the policy in any relevant period is or could be decreased,
or both.
(11) In sub-paragraphs (9)(b)(ii) and (10)(b)(ii) “relevant period” means any period of 12 months beginning at or after the time of the variation or exercise of the relevant option.
(12) The variation of, or exercise of a relevant option under, a protected policy is not a premium limit event in relation to the policy if—
(a) the policy secures a capital sum payable either—
(i) on survival for a specified term, or
(ii) on earlier death or on earlier death or disability,
(b) the policy is issued and maintained for the sole purpose of ensuring that the borrower under an interest-only mortgage will have sufficient funds to repay the principal lent under the mortgage, and
(c) the policy is varied, or the relevant option is exercised, for that sole purpose.
(13) In sub-paragraph (3)(g) references to paragraph 24 below are to that paragraph as it has effect before the appointed date for the purposes of section 55 of the Finance Act 1995.
(14) A qualifying policy which is a new policy in relation to an earlier policy is a restricted relief qualifying policy if the earlier policy is a restricted relief qualifying policy.
(15) A policy which is a restricted relief qualifying policy remains a restricted relief qualifying policy so long as it is a qualifying policy.
(16) Paragraph A1 above is to be ignored in determining for the purposes of sub-paragraph (14) or (15) if a policy is a qualifying policy. This is subject to paragraph A1(8).
(17) For further provision about restricted relief qualifying policies, see sections 463A to 463D of ITTOIA 2005.

The premium limit for qualifying policies
A3 (1) For the purposes of paragraphs A1(1)(c) and A2(1)(c) above an individual is in breach of the premium limit for qualifying policies if the total amount of the premiums payable under relevant policies in any relevant period—
(a) exceeds £3,600, or
(b) could exceed £3,600 as a result of—
(i) the exercise of any one or more relevant options conferred by one or more relevant policies, or
(ii) so far as not covered by sub-paragraph (i), the application of one or more terms of one or more relevant policies relating to increases in premiums.
(2) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)—
(a) so much of a premium payable under a relevant policy as is charged on the grounds that an exceptional risk of death or disability is involved is to be left out of account in determining the premiums payable under the policy,
(b) so much of the first premium payable under a relevant policy the liability for the payment of which—
(i) is discharged in accordance with paragraph 15(2) below, or
(ii) in the case of a policy in relation to which paragraph 3 below applies, is discharged under a provision of the policy falling within paragraph 3(4)(c),
is to be left out of account in determining the premiums payable under the policy (subject to sub-paragraph (3) below),
(c) in determining the premiums payable under a relevant policy any provision for the waiver of premiums by reason of a person's disability is to be ignored, and
(d) “relevant period” means any period of 12 months beginning at or after the time when the event falling within paragraph A1(3) or A2(3) above (“the relevant event”) occurs.
(3) The maximum amount that may be left out of account under sub-paragraph (2)(b) in the case of a relevant policy is—
£ 3,600 x N
where N is the number of complete years for which ran—
(a) the other policy involved, or
(b) if there is more than one other policy involved, the policy which ran for the most number of complete years.
(4) For the purposes of this paragraph the following are “relevant policies”—
(a) the policy to which the relevant event relates, and
(b) any other policy—
(i) which is a qualifying policy, and
(ii) under which the individual is a beneficiary.
(5) But neither a protected policy nor a pure protection policy is to be a relevant policy by virtue of sub-paragraph (4)(b).
(6) Sub-paragraph (7) applies if this paragraph is to be applied in the case of an individual in consequence of two or more events occurring at the same time (including where one or more of the events falls within paragraph A1(3) above and one or more of the events falls within paragraph A2(3) above).
(7) For the purpose of applying this paragraph in the case of the individual in consequence of any of the events, sub-paragraph (4)(a) has effect as if the reference to the policy to which the relevant event relates were a reference to all the policies to which the events, taken together, relate.
(8) But sub-paragraph (7) does not apply, and sub-paragraph (9) applies instead, if—
(a) all the policies in question are policies issued by the same issuer, and
(b) each of them has an unique identifier in a series of unique identifiers which the issuer gives to policies issued by it.
(9) For the purpose of applying this paragraph in the case of the individual in consequence of any of the events, an event relating to a policy (“policy A”) is treated as occurring before an event relating to another policy (“policy B”) if, in the issuer's series of unique identifiers, policy A's unique identifier comes before policy B's unique identifier.

Protected policies
A4 (1) This paragraph applies for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule.
(2) A policy is “protected” if—
(a) it is issued in respect of an insurance made before 21 March 2012, or
(b) it is issued in respect of an insurance made on or after 21 March 2012 where—
(i) it is a new policy in relation to an earlier policy,
(ii) it is issued in substitution for the earlier policy (and not on its maturity), and
(iii) the earlier policy is a protected policy (whether by virtue of paragraph (a) or this paragraph).
(3) A policy which is protected ceases to be protected if it becomes a restricted relief qualifying policy.
(4) A policy issued as mentioned in sub-paragraph (2)(b) is not protected if—
(a) its issue is an event falling within paragraph A2(3) above, and
(b) after that event it is a restricted relief qualifying policy.

How to determine if an individual is a beneficiary under a policy
A5 (1) This paragraph applies for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule in determining if an individual is a beneficiary under a policy.
(2) An individual is a beneficiary under a policy if the individual beneficially owns—
(a) any rights under the policy, or
(b) any share in any rights under the policy.
(3) An individual is a beneficiary under a policy if—
(a) any rights under the policy are, or any share in any rights under the policy is, held on non-charitable trusts created by the individual, and
(b) those rights are, or that share is, not beneficially owned by any individual.
(4) The following provisions of ITTOIA 2005 apply for the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)(a)—
(a) section 465(6), and
(b) the definition of “non-charitable trust” in section 545(1).
(5) An individual is a beneficiary under a policy if—
(a) any rights under the policy are, or any share in any rights under the policy is, held as security for a debt of the individual, and
(b) those rights are, or that share is, not beneficially owned by any individual.

Further definitions
A6 (1) In this Part of this Schedule—
(a) “new policy” has the meaning given in paragraph 17 below,
(b) references to the variation of a policy are to a variation in relation to which paragraph 18 below applies,
(c) “pure protection policy” means a policy—
(i) which has no surrender value and is not capable of acquiring a surrender value, or
(ii) under which the benefits payable cannot exceed the amount of the premiums paid except on death or in respect of disability, and
(d) “relevant option”, in relation to a policy, means an option conferred by the policy on the person to whom it is issued to have another policy substituted for it or to have any of its terms changed.
(2) For the purposes of this Part of this Schedule a “deceased beneficiary event” occurs if, in connection with the death of an individual (“D”) who was a beneficiary under a policy, an individual (“B”) becomes a beneficiary under that policy by reference (wholly or partly) to any rights, or to any share in any rights, by reference to which D was a beneficiary (wholly or partly).
For this purpose, it does not matter if B is already a beneficiary under the policy.
(3) For the purposes of this Part of this Schedule an assignment is a “mortgage endowment assignment” if—
(a) the policy to which the assignment relates secures a capital sum payable either—
(i) on survival for a specified term, or
(ii) on earlier death or on earlier death or disability,
(b) the policy is issued and maintained for the sole purpose of ensuring that the borrower under an interest-only mortgage will have sufficient funds to repay the principal lent under the mortgage, and
(c) when the assignment occurs, it is intended that the policy will continue to be maintained for that sole purpose.

General rules applicable to whole life and term assurances
1 (1) Subject to the following provisions of this Part of this Schedule, if a policy secures a capital sum which is payable only on death, or one payable either on death or on earlier disability, it is a qualifying policy if—
(a) it satisfies the conditions appropriate to it under sub-paragraphs (2) to (5) below, and
(b) except to the extent permitted by sub-paragraph (7) below, it does not secure any other benefits.
Source—1970 Sch.1 1(1)-(4A); 1975 Sch.2 4(2), (3)
(2) If the capital sum referred to in sub-paragraph (1) above is payable whenever the event in question happens, or if it happens at any time during the life of a specified person—
(a) the premiums under the policy must be payable at yearly or shorter intervals, and either—
(i) until the happening of the event or, as the case may require, until the happening of the event or the earlier death of the specified person, or
(ii) until the time referred to in sub-paragraph (i) above or the earlier expiry of a specified period ending not earlier than ten years after the making of the insurance; and
(b) the total premiums payable in any period of 12 months must not exceed—
(i) twice the amount of the total premiums payable in any other such period, or
(ii) one-eighth of the total premiums which would be payable if the policy were to continue in force for a period of ten years from the making of the insurance, or, in a case falling within sub-paragraph (ii) of paragraph (a) above, until the end of the period referred to in that sub-paragraph.
(3) If the capital sum referred to in sub-paragraph (1) above is payable only if the event in question happens before the expiry of a specified term ending more than ten years after the making of the insurance, or only if it happens both before the expiry of such a term and during the life of a specified person—
(a) the premiums under the policy must be payable at yearly or shorter intervals, and either—
(i) until the happening of the event or the earlier expiry of that term or, as the case may require, until the happening of the event or, if earlier, the expiry of the term or the death of the specified person, or
(ii) as in sub-paragraph (i) above, but with the substitution for references to the term of references to a specified shorter period being one ending not earlier than ten years after the making of the insurance or, if sooner, the expiry of three-quarters of that term; and
(b) the total premiums payable in any period of 12 months must not exceed—
(i) twice the amount of the total premiums payable in any other such period, or
(ii) one-eighth of the total premiums which would be payable if the policy were to continue in force for the term referred to in sub-paragraph (i) of paragraph (a) above, or, as the case may require, for the shorter period referred to in sub-paragraph (ii) of that paragraph.
(4) If the capital sum referred to in sub-paragraph (1) above is payable only if the event in question happens before the expiry of a specified term ending not more than ten years after the making of the insurance, or only if it happens both before the expiry of such a term and during the life of a specified person, the policy must provide that any payment made by reason of its surrender during the period is not to exceed the total premiums previously paid under the policy.
(5) Except where—
(a) the capital sum referred to in sub-paragraph (1) above is payable only in the circumstances mentioned in sub-paragraph (3) or (4) above; and
(b) the policy does not provide for any payment on the surrender in whole or in part of the rights conferred by it; and
(c) the specified term mentioned in sub-paragraph (3) or, as the case may be, (4) above ends at or before the time when the person whose life is insured attains the age of 75 years;
the capital sum, so far as payable on death, must not be less than 75 per cent. of the total premiums that would be payable if the death occurred at the age of 75 years, the age being, if the sum is payable on the death of the first to die of two persons, that of the older of them, if on the death of the survivor of them, that of the younger of them, and in any other case, that of the person on whose death it is payable; and if the policy does not secure a capital sum in the event of death occurring before the age of 16 or some lower age, it must not provide for the payment in that event of an amount exceeding the total premiums previously paid under it.
(6) In determining for the purposes of sub-paragraph (5) above whether a capital sum is less than 75 per cent. of the total premiums, any amount included in the premiums by reason of their being payable otherwise than annually shall be disregarded, and if the policy provides for payment otherwise than annually without providing for the amount of the premiums if they are paid annually, 10 per cent. of the premiums payable under the policy shall be treated as so included.

(7) Notwithstanding sub-paragraph (1)(b) above, if a policy secures a capital sum payable only on death, it may also secure benefits (including benefits of a capital nature) to be provided in the event of a person’s disability; and no policy is to be regarded for the purposes of that provision as securing other benefits by reason only of the fact that—
(a) it confers a right to participate in profits, or
(b) it provides for a payment on the surrender in whole or in part of the rights conferred by the policy, or
(c) it gives an option to receive payments by way of annuity, or
(d) it makes provision for the waiver of premiums by reason of a person’s disability, or for the effecting of a further insurance or insurances without the production of evidence of insurability.

(9) References in this paragraph to a capital sum payable on any event include references to any capital sum, or series of capital sums, payable by reason of that event but where what is so payable is either an amount consisting of one sum or an amount made up of two or more sums, the 75 per cent. mentioned in sub-paragraph (5) above shall be compared with the smaller or smallest amount so payable; and a policy secures a capital sum payable either on death or on disability notwithstanding that the amount payable may vary with the event.
(10) In relation to any policy issued in respect of an insurance made before 1st April 1976 this paragraph shall have effect—

(d) the policy—
(i) must guarantee that the capital sum payable on death, or on death occurring after the attainment of a specified age not exceeding 16, will, whenever that event may happen, be equal to 75 per cent. at least of the total premiums which would be payable if the policy were to run for that term, disregarding any amounts included in those premiums by reason of their being payable otherwise than annually, except that if, at the beginning of that term, the age of the person concerned exceeds 55 years, the capital sum so guaranteed may, for each year of the excess, be less by 2 per cent. of that total than 75 per cent. thereof, the person concerned being, if the capital sum is payable on the death of the first to die of two persons, the older of them, if on the death of the survivor of them, the younger of them and in any other case the person on whose death it is payable; and
(ii) if it is a policy which does not secure a capital sum in the event of death before the attainment of a specified age not exceeding 16, must not provide for the payment in that event of an amount exceeding the total premiums previously paid thereunder; and

(2) The rules (for the purposes of which, the question whether the old policy was a qualifying policy shall be determined in accordance with this Part of this Schedule, whatever the date of the insurance in respect of which it was issued), are as follows—
(za) the new policy cannot be a qualifying policy if the old policy was not a qualifying policy by virtue of—
(i) paragraph A1(2), B1(2), B2(2) or B3(3) above, or
(ii) sub-paragraph (i) above or this sub-paragraph;

(a) if the new policy would apart from this paragraph be a qualifying policy but the old policy was not and paragraph (za) above does not apply, the new policy is not a qualifying policy unless the person making the insurance in respect of which it is issued was an infant when the old policy was issued, and the old policy was one securing a capital sum payable either on a specified date falling not later than one month after his attaining 25 or on the anniversary of the policy immediately following his attainment of that age;

(b) if the new policy would apart from this paragraph be a qualifying policy, and the old policy was also a qualifying policy, the new policy is a qualifying policy unless—
(i) it takes effect before the expiry of ten years from the making of the insurance in respect of which the old policy was issued, and
(ii) subject to sub-paragraph (4) below, the highest total of premiums payable thereunder for any period of 12 months expiring before that time is less than one half of the highest total paid for any period of 12 months under the old policy, or under any related policy issued less than ten years before the issue of the new policy (“related policy” meaning any policy in relation to which the old policy was a new policy within the meaning of this paragraph, any policy in relation to which that policy was such a policy, and so on);
(c) if the new policy would not apart from this paragraph be a qualifying policy, and would fail to be so by reason only of paragraph 1(2) or (3) or 2(1)(a), (b) or (c) above, it is nevertheless a qualifying policy if the old policy was a qualifying policy and—
(i) the old policy was issued in respect of an insurance made more than ten years before the taking effect of the new policy, and, subject to sub-paragraph (4) below, the premiums payable for any period of 12 months under the new policy do not exceed the smallest total paid for any such period under the old policy; or
(ii) the old policy was issued outside the United Kingdom, and the circumstances are as specified in sub-paragraph (3) below.
(3) The circumstances are—
(a) where the new policy referred to in sub-paragraph (2)(c) above is issued after 22nd February 1984, that the policy holder under the new policy became resident in the United Kingdom during the 12 months ending with the date of its issue;
(b) where paragraph (a) above does not apply, that the person in respect of whom the new insurance is made became resident in the United Kingdom during the 12 months ending with the date of its issue;
(c) that the issuing company certify that the new policy is in substitution for the old, and that the old was issued either by a permanent establishment of theirs outside the United Kingdom or by a company outside the United Kingdom with whom they have arrangements for the issue of policies in substitution for ones held by persons coming to the United Kingdom; and

(d) that the new policy confers on the holder benefits which are substantially equivalent to those which he would have enjoyed if the old policy had continued in force.

(4) Where the new policy is one issued on or after 1st April 1976 then, in determining under sub-paragraph (2)(a) to (c) above whether that policy would or would not (apart from sub-paragraphs (1) to (3) above) be a qualifying policy, there shall be left out of account so much of the first premium payable thereunder as is accounted for by the value of the old policy.

Source—1970 Sch.1 10
(2) In applying any of those rules by virtue of this paragraph, the question whether a policy after a variation would be a qualifying policy apart from the rule shall be determined as if any reference in paragraphs 1, 2, 3(5) to (11), 4 to 9, 12 and 13 above to the making of an insurance, or to a policy’s term, were a reference to the taking effect of the variation or, as the case may be, to the term of the policy as from the variation.

(4) For the purposes of this paragraph there is no variation in the terms of a policy where—

(b) the policy is amended by the insertion, variation or removal of a provision under which, on those grounds, any sum may become chargeable as a debt against the capital sum guaranteed by the policy on death or disability.

(3) If the policy is one issued in respect of an insurance made on or after 1st April 1976, the policy shall not be a qualifying policy unless it satisfies the conditions applicable to it under this Schedule before any such option is exercised and—

(b) the policy would continue to satisfy those conditions under the rules of that paragraph as applied by paragraph 18 above if each or any of the changes capable of being made in pursuance of such an option had been made and were treated as a variation;
and it shall not be treated as being varied by reason only of any change made in pursuance of such an option.
20 (1) Where, as a result of a variation in the life or lives for the time being assured, a qualifying policy (“the earlier policy”) is replaced by a new policy (“the later policy”) which in accordance with the rules in paragraph 17 above is also a qualifying policy, then, subject to sub-paragraph (2) below, for the purposes of—

(4) If the percentage of profits to which, on the profit distribution, a particular equity holder would be taken for the relevant purposes to be entitled would be less if the determination under paragraph 2(1) above were made on the basis specified in sub-paragraph (7) below, then that shall be the basis used for the relevant purposes in the case of that equity holder.
(5) If the percentage of assets to which, on the notional winding-up, a particular equity holder would be taken for the relevant purposes to be entitled would be less if the determination under paragraph 3(1) above were made on the basis specified in sub-paragraph (7) below, then that shall be the basis used for the relevant purposes in the case of that equity holder.
(6) If the percentage that falls to be taken for any of the purposes of section 403C or section 413(7) would, under any of paragraphs 4 to 5E above, be the lower or lowest of a number of percentages determined on different bases—
(a) each of the percentages falling to be compared for the purposes of that paragraph shall be determined both—
(i) on the basis specified in sub-paragraph (7) below, and
(ii) without making the assumption required for a determination on that basis;
and
(b) the comparison required by that paragraph, so far as made for the relevant purposes, shall be made using, in the case of each of the percentages to be compared, only the lower of the percentages determined under paragraph (a) above.
(7) That basis is the assumption—
(a) that the profit distribution or the distribution on the notional winding-up is confined to a distribution of profits or assets that are referable to the non-resident company’s UK trade; and
(b) that the amount of the distribution does not exceed whichever is the greater of £100 and the following amount—
(i) in the case of a profit distribution, the amount (if any) of so much of the company’s chargeable profits for the relevant accounting period as is referable to its UK trade; and
(ii) in the case of a distribution on a notional winding-up, its net UK assets;
and
(c) that none of the ordinary equity holders has an entitlement to a proportion of the profits or assets mentioned in paragraph (a) above that is any greater than the proportion of the distribution to which he would be entitled if—
(i) the assumptions specified in paragraphs (a) and (b) above were disregarded; but
(ii) it were assumed, where it is less, that the distribution is equal to £100.
(8) In sub-paragraph (7) above—
“net UK assets”, in relation to a non-resident company, means the excess, if any, of the total amount of the assets of the company that are referable to its UK trade (as shown in the relevant balance sheet), over the total amount of those of its liabilities (as so shown) which are so referable and are not liabilities to equity holders as such; and
“ordinary equity holder” means any equity holder whose entitlement on the profit distribution or the distribution on the notional winding-up does not differ according to whether or not, or the extent to which, the profits or assets distributed are referable to the non-resident company’s UK trade.
(9) In sub-paragraph (8) above “relevant balance sheet”, in relation to a company, means any balance sheet relating to its affairs as at the end of the relevant accounting period.
(10) For the purposes of this paragraph profits, assets or liabilities of a non-resident company shall be taken to be referable to its UK trade to the extent only that they—
(a) are attributable to, or used for the purposes of, activities the income and gains from which are, or (were there any) would be, brought into account in computing the company’s chargeable profits for any accounting period, and
(b) are not attributable to, or used for the purposes of, any activities which (within the meaning of section 403D) are made exempt from corporation tax for any accounting period by any double taxation arrangements.

6
For the purposes of sections 403C and 413(7) and paragraphs 2 to 5F above—
(a) the percentage to which one company is beneficially entitled of any profits available for distribution to the equity holders of another company, and
(b) the percentage to which one company would be beneficially entitled of any assets of another company on a winding-up,
means the percentage to which the first company is, or would be, so entitled either directly or through another body corporate or other bodies corporate or partly directly and partly through another body corporate or other bodies corporate.

This Part of this Schedule applies, in the case of any non-resident company, for the purposes of section 403F (relief in respect of overseas losses of non-resident companies).

The equivalence condition

2
An amount meets the equivalence condition if it corresponds (in all material respects) to an amount of a kind that, for the purposes of section 403, could be available for surrender by way of group relief by a company resident in the United Kingdom.

(b) are chargeable to that tax for the current period or any previous period.
(3) Condition B is that, for the purposes of any tax under the EEA territory concerned or under any relevant territory, the amount cannot be relieved in the current period or any previous period—

(a) another company is resident in that territory (which need not be an EEA territory),
(b) that other company owns directly or indirectly any ordinary share capital in the relevant company,

Part 2 Application of UK rules to non-resident company

Introduction

10
(1) This Part of this Schedule applies in the case of any loss or other amount (“the EEA amount”) arising to a non-resident company (“the EEA company”) in any period (“the loss period”) in so far as the EEA amount meets the conditions mentioned in subsection (2)(a) to (d) of section 403F.
(2) In this Part of this Schedule “the EEA territory concerned” means the EEA territory in which the EEA company is resident or (as the case may be) in which it carries on a trade through a permanent establishment.
(3) In this Part of this Schedule any reference to the appropriate part of the EEA amount is to that amount in so far as it meets the conditions mentioned in subsection (2)(a) to (d) of section 403F.

Basic rules

11
(1) The EEA amount must, on the relevant assumptions (see sub-paragraph (5)), be recalculated in accordance with the applicable UK tax rules (see paragraph 16).
(2) The amount of the EEA amount that is available for surrender by the EEA company by way of group relief is so much of the appropriate part of it as does not exceed the relevant proportion (see sub-paragraph (5)) of the amount given by that recalculation.
(3) But if the amount given by that recalculation is an amount of income or other profits, no part of the EEA amount is available for surrender by way of group relief.
(4) So far as any part of the EEA amount is available for surrender by the EEA company by way of group relief, the provisions of this Chapter have effect in that case on the basis that the relevant assumptions are made.
(5) In this paragraph—
“the relevant assumptions” are the assumptions set out in paragraphs 12 to 15, and
“the relevant proportion” means the proportion that the appropriate part of the EEA amount bears to the EEA amount.

Assumptions as to UK residence

12
(1) It is to be assumed that the EEA company is resident in the United Kingdom throughout the loss period.
(2) But this does not require it to be assumed—
(a) that there is any change in the place or places at which the EEA company carries on its activities (although see paragraph 13), or
(b) that the EEA company ceases to be resident in the United Kingdom at the end of the loss period.
(3) It is to be assumed that the EEA company becomes resident in the United Kingdom (and, accordingly, within the charge to corporation tax) at the beginning of the loss period.

Assumptions as to places in which activities carried out

13
(1) In the case of any trade carried on by the EEA company in the loss period wholly or partly in the EEA territory concerned, it is to be assumed that the trade is carried on wholly or partly in the United Kingdom.
(2) In the case of any estate, interest or rights in or over land in the EEA territory concerned which are held by the EEA company, it is to be assumed that the land is in the United Kingdom.
(3) For this purpose, the reference to domestic concepts of law in relation to the land in the EEA territory concerned is to be read so as to produce the result that most closely corresponds with that produced for the purpose of calculating the profits of a UK property business under Part 4 of CTA 2009 in relation to land in the United Kingdom.
Words in Sch. 18A para. 13(3) substituted (1.4.2009 with effect in accordance with s. 1329(1) of the amending Act) by Corporation Tax Act 2009 (c. 4), Sch. 1 para. 281 (with Sch. 2 Pts. 1, 2)

Deemed accounting period

14
(1) It is to be assumed that an accounting period of the EEA company begins at the beginning of the loss period.
(2) It is to be assumed that the accounting period ends on the earlier of—
(a) the end of 12 months from the beginning of the loss period, or
(b) the end of the loss period.
(3) If an accounting period ends in accordance with sub-paragraph (2)(a), it is to be assumed that a further accounting period begins when the previous one ends.
(4) It is to be assumed that the further accounting period ends on the earlier of—
(a) the end of 12 months from the beginning of the further accounting period, or
(b) the end of the loss period.

Capital allowances

15
(1) This paragraph applies if, before the beginning of the loss period, the EEA company incurs any capital expenditure on the provision of plant or machinery for the purposes of any activity.
(2) It is to be assumed for the purposes of Part 2 of the Capital Allowances Act that the plant or machinery—
(a) was provided for purposes wholly other than those of the activity, and
(b) was not brought into use for the purposes of the activity until the beginning of the loss period,
and section 13 of the Capital Allowances Act (use for qualifying activity of plant or machinery provided for other purposes) is to apply accordingly.
(3) This paragraph is to be read as one with Part 2 of the Capital Allowances Act.

Applicable UK tax rules

16
(1) For the purposes of this Part of this Schedule references to recalculating the EEA amount in accordance with the applicable UK tax rules are to recalculating it in accordance with any provision made by or under the Corporation Tax Acts—
(a) which applies for the purpose of calculating for corporation tax purposes the amount of the loss or other amount to which the EEA amount corresponds, or
(b) which otherwise affects in any way the amount of that loss or other amount for which relief from corporation tax is available.
(2) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1), the Treasury may by regulations provide for the modification of any provision made by or under the Corporation Tax Acts—
(a) which applies as mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(a), or
(b) which otherwise affects an amount as mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(b).
(3) Regulations under this paragraph may make provision in relation to—
(a) all classes of trade or business, or
(b) any particular class or classes of trade or business.
(4) Regulations under this paragraph may make—
(a) different provision for different cases or different purposes, and
(b) incidental, supplemental, consequential or transitional provision and savings.
(5) Regulations under this paragraph may make provision having effect before the date on which the regulations are made.
Sch. 18A Pt. 2 modified (28.10.2008 with effect in accordance with reg. 1(2) of the modifying S.I.) by The Group Relief for Overseas Losses (Modification of the Corporation Tax Acts for Non-resident Insurance Companies) Regulations 2008 (S.I. 2008/2646), regs. 1(1), 2

Part 3 Definitions for the purposes of this Schedule

Charge to tax under the law of any territory outside the United Kingdom

17
(1) This paragraph applies for the purposes of this Schedule.
(2) Any reference to a tax under a territory outside the United Kingdom is a reference to a tax chargeable under the law of that territory which—
(a) is charged on income and corresponds to United Kingdom income tax, or
(b) is charged on income or chargeable gains or both and corresponds to United Kingdom corporation tax.
(3) A tax chargeable under the law of a territory outside the United Kingdom is not to be regarded as failing to correspond to income or corporation tax just because—
(a) it is chargeable under the law of a province, state or other part of a country, or
(b) it is levied by or on behalf of a municipality or other local body.

(6) If a company fails or refuses, on being required to do so under paragraph 17below, to furnish a statement of any amount which in the case of that company could be apportioned under section 423,or renders a statement with which the inspector is not satisfied, the inspector may make an estimate of that amount to the best of his judgment, and any relevant decision taken by the inspector under this sub-paragraph may be reviewed on appeal under this paragraph.
(7) Sections 113(1B)and (3)and 114(2)of the Management Act (supplementary provisions as to assessments and notices of assessment)shall apply to any notice under sub-paragraph (1)above as if the determination of the amount to be shown therein were the making of an assessment and the notice were a notice of assessment.

Notice of manner of apportionment

14
(1) Where notice has been served on a company under paragraph 13above showing an amount to be apportioned, the inspector shall serve on the company a notice showing the manner in which that amount is apportioned, (that is to say, the sum apportioned or sub-apportioned to each participator or, if the inspector thinks fit, to each class of share)and, subject to any appeal under this paragraph and to paragraph 15below, that notice shall be treated, in relation to the company, as conclusively establishing the manner of apportionment.

(2) Where the amount shown in a notice under sub-paragraph (1)of paragraph 13above is excessive because the company’s distributable income is smaller than it was taken to be for the purposes of that notice or because the company’s distributions were greater than they were taken to be for those purposes, the inspector shall serve on the company a further notice under that sub-paragraph showing a reduced amount; and where such a notice is served—
(a) a further notice shall also be served under paragraph 14above making such amendments in any previous notice under that paragraph as may be required to take account of the reduction in the amount apportioned; and

(b) some or all of the loss falls to be set off under section 393 against trading income from the trade in succeeding accounting periods,
so much of the loss as falls to be so set off is a “ring fence loss” of the company.
(2) In determining for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule how much of a loss incurred in a ring fence trade falls to be set off as mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(b), it shall be assumed—
(a) that every claim is made that could be made by the company under section 393A to set losses incurred in the ring fence trade against ring fence profits of earlier post-commencement periods, and
Words in Sch. 19B para. 17(2) renumbered as para. 17(2)(a) (with effect in accordance with 111(3) of the amending Act) by virtue of Finance Act 2008 (c. 9), Sch. 35 para. 8(3)(a)

(b) that (where appropriate) section 393B applies in relation to every such claim.
(3) So much of a ring fence loss as is attributable to qualifying E&A allowances for the period of the loss is a “qualifying E&A loss”.
(4) A ring fence loss is attributable to qualifying E&A allowances to the extent that the amount of the ring fence loss does not exceed the amount of the qualifying E&A allowances for the period of the loss.
(5) But a claim for post-commencement supplement may include an election for a ring fence loss to be treated—
(a) as attributable to qualifying E&A allowances for the period of the loss to such lesser extent as may be specified in the election, or
(b) as not attributable to such allowances.
(6) “Qualifying E&A allowances”, in the case of an accounting period, means allowances for that period under Part 6 of the Capital Allowances Act in respect of qualifying E&A expenditure incurred by the company (including any pre-commencement supplement treated under paragraph 9(2) as such an allowance).
(7) This paragraph has effect for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule.

18 Ring fence losses and non-qualifying losses
(1) So much of a ring fence loss as is not a qualifying E&A loss is a non-qualifying loss.
(2) Where—
(a) a loss was incurred by a qualifying company in its ring fence trade in an accounting period ending on or before 31st December 2003, and
(b) some or all of that loss falls to be set off under section 393 against profits of that trade in accounting periods ending on or after that date,
so much of the loss as falls to be so set off is a ring fence loss and that loss is a non-qualifying loss.
(3) This paragraph has effect for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule.

18A Special rule for straddling periods
(1) This paragraph applies in any case where the period of the loss in which a ring fence loss is incurred is the deemed accounting period under paragraph 3(3) ending before 1st January 2006.
(2) The following assumption shall be made for the purpose of calculating the amount of the qualifying E&A loss and the amount of the non-qualifying loss.
(3) The assumption is that the loss made in the trade is taken to be the loss incurred in the accounting period beginning before 1st January 2006 and ending on or after that date (disregarding paragraph 3(3)).
(4) The amount of the non-qualifying loss (found in accordance with that assumption) is then reduced (but not below nil) by the following amount.
(5) The amount is the amount of the ring fence loss in the deemed accounting period beginning on 1st January 2006 determined under section 324 of CTA 2010.

20 The non-qualifying pool
(1) The non-qualifying pool consists of the company’s non-qualifying losses, allocated to the pool in accordance with sub-paragraph (2).
(2) A non-qualifying loss is allocated to the pool by adding the amount of the non-qualifying loss to the pool in the period of the loss.
(3) In the case of a non-qualifying loss incurred in an accounting period ending on or before 31st December 2003, the period of the loss shall be taken for the purposes of sub-paragraph (2) to be the first accounting period of the company that ends on or after 1st January 2004.
(4) The amount in the non-qualifying pool is subject to reductions in accordance with the following provisions of this Part of this Schedule.
(5) Where a reduction in the amount in the non-qualifying pool falls to be made in any accounting period—
(a) the reduction is to be made after the addition to the pool of any non-qualifying loss allocated to the pool in that period in accordance with sub-paragraph (2), and
(b) references to the amount in the non-qualifying pool shall be construed accordingly.

(b) before determining, and adding to the pool, the amount of any supplement claimed in respect of the period,
and references to the amount in the pool shall be construed accordingly.

22 Reductions in respect of utilised ring fence losses
(1) If one or more ring fence losses are set off under section 393 against any profits of a post-commencement period, reductions shall be made in that period in accordance with this paragraph.
(2) The amount in the non-qualifying pool shall be reduced (but not below nil) by setting against it a sum equal to the total amount so set off.
(3) If any of that sum remains after being so set against the amount in the non-qualifying pool, the amount in the qualifying pool shall be reduced (but not below nil) by setting against it so much of that sum as so remains.
(4) If the post-commencement period is the deemed accounting period under paragraph 3(3) ending before 1st January 2006 (“the deemed accounting period”), the amount of the profits of the deemed accounting period is determined as follows.

Part 2 Application and interpretation

Qualifying companies

2
This Schedule applies in relation to any company which—
(a) carries on a ring fence trade, or
(b) is engaged in any activities with a view to carrying on a ring fence trade,
and in this Schedule any such company is referred to as a “qualifying company”.

(1) In this Schedule, in the case of any qualifying company,—
“the commencement period” means the accounting period in which the company sets up and commences its ring fence trade;
“post-commencement period” means any accounting period beginning on or after 1st January 2006—
(a) which is the commencement period, or
(b) which ends after the commencement period;
“pre-commencement period” means any accounting period—
(a) beginning on or after 1st January 2006, and
(b) ending before the commencement period.
(2) For the purposes of this Schedule a company not within the charge to corporation tax which incurs any expenditure is to be treated as having such accounting periods as it would have if—
(a) it carried on a trade consisting of the activities in respect of which the expenditure is incurred, and
(b) it had started to carry on that trade when it started to carry on the activities in the course of which the expenditure is incurred.
(3) In the case of an accounting period (a “straddling period”) of any qualifying company beginning before 1st January 2006 and ending on or after that date—
(a) so much of the straddling period as falls before 1st January 2006, and
(b) so much of the straddling period as falls on or after that date,
are treated as separate accounting periods for the purposes of this Schedule.

Part 3 Pre-commencement supplement

Supplement in respect of a pre-commencement accounting period

9
(1) If—
(a) a qualifying company incurs qualifying pre-commencement expenditure in respect of a ring fence trade, and
(b) the expenditure is incurred before the commencement period,
the company may claim supplement under this Part of this Schedule (“pre-commencement supplement”) in respect of one or more pre-commencement periods.
(2) Any pre-commencement supplement allowed on a claim in respect of a pre-commencement period is to be treated as expenditure—
(a) which is incurred by the company in the commencement period, and
(b) which is allowable as a deduction in calculating the profits of the ring fence trade for that period.
(3) The amount of the supplement for any pre-commencement period in respect of which a claim under this paragraph is made is the relevant percentage for that period of the reference amount for that period.
(4) If the pre-commencement period is a period of less than twelve months, the amount of the supplement for the period (apart from this sub-paragraph) is to be reduced proportionally.
(5) Paragraphs 10 to 13 have effect for the purpose of determining the reference amount for a pre-commencement period.

The mixed pool of qualifying pre-commencement expenditure and supplement previously allowed

10
(1) For the purpose of determining the amount of any pre-commencement supplement, a qualifying company is to be taken to have had, at all times in the pre-commencement periods of the company, a continuing mixed pool of—
(a) the relevant amount (if any) which the company carries forward under Schedule 19B,
(b) qualifying pre-commencement expenditure, and
(c) pre-commencement supplement.
(2) The pool is to be taken to have consisted of—
(a) the relevant amount (if any) which the company carries forward under Schedule 19B,
(b) the company's qualifying pre-commencement expenditure, allocated to the pool for each pre-commencement period in accordance with sub-paragraph (3), and
(c) the company's pre-commencement supplement, allocated to the pool for each pre-commencement period in accordance with sub-paragraph (4).
(3) To allocate qualifying pre-commencement expenditure to the pool for any pre-commencement period, take the following steps—
(a) Step 1: count as eligible expenditure for that period so much of the qualifying pre-commencement expenditure mentioned in paragraph 9(1) as was incurred in that period,
(b) Step 2: find the total of all the eligible expenditure for that period (amount E),
(c) Step 3: if paragraph 11 applies, reduce amount E in accordance with that paragraph,
(d) Step 4: if paragraph 12 applies, reduce (or, as the case may be, further reduce) amount E in accordance with that paragraph,
and so much of amount E as remains after making those reductions is to be taken to have been added to the pool in that period.
(4) If any pre-commencement supplement is allowed on a claim in respect of a pre-commencement period, the amount of that supplement is to be taken to have been added to the pool in that period.
(5) In this paragraph references to the relevant amount (if any) which the company carries forward under Schedule 19B are to the amount in its mixed pool for the purposes of Part 3 of Schedule 19B immediately before 1st January 2006.

Reduction in respect of disposal receipts under the Capital Allowances Act

11
(1) This paragraph applies in the case of the qualifying company if—
(a) it incurs qualifying pre-commencement expenditure in respect of a ring fence trade in any pre-commencement period,
(b) it would, on the relevant assumption, be entitled to an allowance under any provision of the Capital Allowances Act in respect of that expenditure,
(c) an event occurs in relation to any asset representing the expenditure in any pre-commencement period, and
(d) the event would, on the relevant assumption, require a disposal value (the “deductible amount”) to be brought into account under any provision of the Capital Allowances Act for any pre-commencement period.
(2) The relevant assumption is that the company was carrying on the ring fence trade—
(a) when the expenditure was incurred, and
(b) when the event giving rise to the disposal value occurred.
(3) For the purpose of allocating qualifying pre-commencement expenditure to the pool for each pre-commencement period—
(a) find the total amount of the disposal values in the case of all such events (amount D), and
(b) taking later periods before earlier periods, reduce (but not below nil) amount E for any pre-commencement period by setting against it so much of amount D as does not fall to be set against amount E for a later pre-commencement period.

Reduction in respect of unrelieved group ring fence profits

12
(1) This paragraph applies if there is an amount of unrelieved group ring fence profits for a pre-commencement period.
(2) For the purpose of allocating qualifying pre-commencement expenditure to the pool for that period—
(a) find so much (if any) of amount E for that period as remains after any reduction falling to be made under paragraph 11, and
(b) reduce that amount (but not below nil) by setting against it a sum equal to the aggregate of the amounts of unrelieved group ring fence profits for the period.

The reference amount for a pre-commencement period

13
For the purposes of this Part of this Schedule, the reference amount for a pre-commencement period is the amount in the pool at the end of the period—
(a) after the addition to the pool of any qualifying pre-commencement expenditure allocated to the pool for that period in accordance with paragraph 10(3), but
(b) before determining, and adding to the pool, the amount of any pre-commencement supplement claimed in respect of the period.

Claims for pre-commencement supplement

14
(1) Any claim for pre-commencement supplement in respect of a pre-commencement period must be made as a claim for the commencement period.
(2) Paragraph 74 of Schedule 18 to the Finance Act 1998 (company tax returns etc: time limit for claims for group relief) applies in relation to a claim for pre-commencement supplement as it applies in relation to a claim for group relief.

Part 4 Post-commencement supplement

Supplement in respect of a post-commencement period

15
(1) A qualifying company which incurs a ring fence loss (see paragraph 17) in a post-commencement period may claim supplement under this Part of this Schedule (“post-commencement supplement”) in respect of—
(a) that period, or
(b) any subsequent accounting period in which it carries on its ring fence trade.
(2) Any post-commencement supplement allowed on a claim in respect of a post-commencement period is to be treated for the purposes of the Corporation Tax Acts (other than this Part of this Schedule or Part 4 of Schedule 19B) as if it were a loss—
(a) which is incurred in carrying on the ring fence trade in that period, and
(b) which falls in whole to be set off under section 393 against trading income from the ring fence trade in succeeding accounting periods.
(3) Paragraph 74 of Schedule 18 to the Finance Act 1998 (company tax returns etc: time limit for claims for group relief) applies in relation to a claim for post-commencement supplement as it applies in relation to a claim for group relief.

Amount of post-commencement supplement for a post-commencement period

16
(1) The amount of the post-commencement supplement for any post-commencement period in respect of which a claim under paragraph 15 is made is the relevant percentage for that period of the reference amount for that period.
(2) If the post-commencement period is a period of less than twelve months, the amount of the supplement for the period (apart from this sub-paragraph) is to be reduced proportionally.
(3) Paragraphs 19 to 23 have effect for the purpose of determining the reference amount for a post-commencement period.

Ring fence losses

17
(1) If—
(a) in any post-commencement period (“the period of the loss”) a qualifying company carrying on a ring fence trade incurs a loss in the trade, and
(b) some or all of the loss falls to be set off under section 393 against trading income from the trade in succeeding accounting periods,
so much of the loss as falls to be so set off is a “ring fence loss” of the company.
(2) In determining for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule how much of a loss incurred in a ring fence trade falls to be set off as mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(b), the following assumptions are to be made.
Words in Sch. 19C para. 17(2) substituted (with effect in accordance with s. 111(3) of the amending Act) by Finance Act 2008 (c. 9), Sch. 35 para. 9(3)(a)
(3) The first assumption is that every claim is made that could be made by the company under section 393A to set losses incurred in the ring fence trade against ring fence profits of earlier post-commencement periods.
Words in Sch. 19C para. 17(3) substituted (with effect in accordance with s. 111(3) of the amending Act) by Finance Act 2008 (c. 9), Sch. 35 para. 9(3)(b)
(3A) The second assumption is that (where appropriate) section 393B applies in relation to every such claim under section 393A.
Sch. 19C para. 17(3A) inserted (with effect in accordance with s. 111(3) of the amending Act) by Finance Act 2008 (c. 9), Sch. 35 para. 9(3)(c)
(4) This paragraph is subject to paragraph 18 (special rule for straddling periods).
(5) This paragraph has effect for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule.

Special rule for straddling periods

18
(1) This paragraph applies if the period of the loss in which a ring fence loss is incurred is the deemed accounting period under paragraph 3(3) beginning on 1st January 2006 (“the deemed accounting period”).
(2) The amount of the ring fence loss in the deemed accounting period is determined as follows.
Step 1
Calculate so much of the ring fence loss in the straddling period as, for the purposes of Part 4 of Schedule 19B, is attributable to qualifying E&A allowances for the straddling period.
The amount given by this step is “the qualifying Schedule 19B amount”.
Step 2
Calculate so much of the ring fence loss in the straddling period as is attributable to allowances for the straddling period under Part 6 of the Capital Allowances Act in respect of relevant expenditure.
For the purposes of this step “relevant expenditure” means expenditure incurred by the company on or after 1st January 2006 which, but for that fact, would be qualifying E&A expenditure for the purposes of Schedule 19B.
For the purposes of this step a ring fence loss is attributable to those allowances to the extent that the amount of the loss (less the qualifying Schedule 19B amount) does not exceed the amount of those allowances for that period.
The amount given by this step is “the amount of the post-1st January 2006 E&A allowances”.
Step 3
Deduct the qualifying Schedule 19B amount and the amount of the post-1st January 2006 E&A allowances from the amount of the ring fence loss in the straddling period.
Step 4
Apportion the remaining amount of that loss (if any) to the deemed accounting period in proportion to the number of days in the deemed accounting period that fall in the straddling period.
The amount given by this step is “the amount of the apportioned loss”.
Step 5
The amount of the ring fence loss in the deemed accounting period is the amount of the apportioned loss plus the amount of the post-1st January 2006 E&A allowances.
(3) In this paragraph “the straddling period”, in relation to a qualifying company, means an accounting period of the company—
(a) beginning before 1st January 2006, and
(b) ending on or after that date,
disregarding paragraph 3(3).
(4) In this paragraph references to the ring fence loss in the straddling period are to that loss determined on the assumption that the straddling period is the period of the loss for the purposes of paragraph 17.
(5) This paragraph has effect for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule.

The pool of ring fence losses and the pool of non-qualifying Schedule 19B losses

19
(1) For the purpose of determining the amount of any post-commencement supplement, a qualifying company is to be taken at all times in its post-commencement periods to have a continuing mixed pool (the “ring fence pool”) of—
(a) the carried forward qualifying Schedule 19B amount,
(b) the company's ring fence losses, and
(c) post-commencement supplement.
(2) The ring fence pool continues even if the amount in it is nil.
(3) For the purpose of determining the amount of any post-commencement supplement, a qualifying company is also to be taken in its post-commencement periods to have a non-qualifying pool consisting of the carried forward non-qualifying Schedule 19B amount.
(4) But the non-qualifying pool ceases to exist when the amount in it is reduced to nil.
(5) In this paragraph—
“the carried forward qualifying Schedule 19B amount”, in relation to a qualifying company, means the amount in its qualifying pool for the purposes of Part 4 of Schedule 19B immediately before 1st January 2006, and
“the carried forward non-qualifying Schedule 19B amount”, in relation to a qualifying company, means the amount in its non-qualifying pool for the purposes of Part 4 of Schedule 19B immediately before 1st January 2006.

The ring fence pool

20
(1) The ring fence pool consists of—
(a) the carried forward qualifying Schedule 19B amount,
(b) the company's ring fence losses, allocated to the pool in accordance with sub-paragraph (2)(a), and
(c) the company's post-commencement supplement, allocated to the pool in accordance with sub-paragraph (2)(b).
(2) The allocation of ring fence losses and post-commencement supplement to the pool is as follows—
(a) the amount of a ring fence loss is added to the pool in the period of the loss, and
(b) if any post-commencement supplement is allowed on a claim in respect of a post-commencement period, the amount of that supplement is added to the pool in that period.
(3) The amount in the ring fence pool is subject to reductions in accordance with the following provisions of this Part of this Schedule.
(4) If a reduction in the amount in the ring fence pool falls to be made in any accounting period, the reduction is to be made—
(a) after the addition to the pool of the amount of any ring fence losses allocated to the pool in that period in accordance with sub-paragraph (2)(a), but
(b) before determining, and adding to the pool, the amount of any supplement claimed in respect of the period,
and references to the amount in the pool are to be read accordingly.
(5) In this paragraph “the carried forward qualifying Schedule 19B amount”, in relation to a qualifying company, means the amount in its qualifying pool for the purposes of Part 4 of Schedule 19B immediately before 1st January 2006.

Reductions in respect of utilised ring fence losses

21
(1) If one or more ring fence losses are set off under section 393 against any profits of a post-commencement period, reductions are to be made in that period in accordance with this paragraph.
(2) If the company has a non-qualifying pool, the amount in the non-qualifying pool is to be reduced (but not below nil) by setting against it a sum equal to the total amount so set off.
(3) If—
(a) any of that sum remains after being so set against the amount in the non-qualifying pool, or
(b) the company does not have a non-qualifying pool,
the amount in the ring fence pool is to be reduced (but not below nil) by setting against it so much of that sum as so remains or (as the case may be) a sum equal to the total amount set off as mentioned in sub-paragraph (1).
(4) If the post-commencement period is the deemed accounting period under paragraph 3(3) beginning on 1st January 2006 (“the deemed accounting period”), the amount of the profits of the deemed accounting period is determined as follows.
(5) The amount of the profits of the straddling period is apportioned to the deemed accounting period in proportion to the number of days in the deemed accounting period that fall in the straddling period.
(6) The apportioned amount is taken for the purposes of this paragraph to be the amount of the profits of the deemed accounting period.
(7) In this paragraph “the straddling period”, in relation to a qualifying company, means an accounting period of the company—
(a) beginning before 1st January 2006, and
(b) ending on or after that date,
disregarding paragraph 3(3).

Reductions in respect of unrelieved group ring fence profits

22
(1) If there is an amount of unrelieved group ring fence profits for a post-commencement period, reductions are to be made in that period in accordance with this paragraph.
(2) If, after making any reductions that fall to be made in accordance with paragraph 21, the company does not have a non-qualifying pool, the remaining amount in the ring fence pool is to be reduced (but not below nil) by setting against it a sum equal to the aggregate of the amounts of unrelieved group ring fence profits for the period.
(3) If, after making any reductions that fall to be made in accordance with paragraph 21, the company has an amount in a non-qualifying pool, the amount in that pool is to be reduced (but not below nil) by setting against it a sum equal to the aggregate of the amounts of unrelieved group ring fence profits for the period.
(4) If any of that sum remains after being so set against the amount in the non-qualifying pool, the remaining amount in the ring fence pool is to be reduced (but not below nil) by setting against it so much of that sum as so remains.
(5) For the purposes of this paragraph references to the remaining amount in the ring fence pool are references to so much (if any) of the amount in the ring fence pool as remains after making any reductions that fall to be made in accordance with paragraph 21.

The reference amount for a post-commencement period

23
For the purposes of this Part of this Schedule the reference amount for a post-commencement period is so much of the amount in the ring fence pool as remains after making any reductions required by paragraph 21 or 22.

5 The amount of the reduction to be made in respect of the payment shall be arrived at by—

(a) that there are no profits against which the allowance could be made, or
(b) that account is required to be taken of allowances previously made or deemed to have been made in respect of the asset; or

(d) that account is required to be taken of any sum falling to be taken into account as sale, insurance, salvage or compensation moneys, the like consequences shall ensue under this Schedule as if an allowance had fallen to be made by reason of that event.

(a) for the purpose of the application of paragraph 8 above in relation to contributions subsequently paid under the scheme in respect of the trade, the total amount of the reductions referred to in that paragraph shall be treated as decreased by that sum; and
(b) for the purpose of the application of paragraph 5 above in relation to payments subsequently made under the scheme in respect of the trade, the total amount of the reductions referred to in that paragraph shall be treated as decreased by that sum.
10 When two or more contributions are paid at the same time, the provisions of this Part of this Schedule shall have effect as if they were a single contribution.

Sch. 27 para. 1(2)(a)(b) substituted (with effect in accordance with s. 134(9) of the amending Act) by Finance Act 1995 (c. 4), s. 134(4)
(b) the amount of the gross income of the fund does not exceed 1 per cent. of the average value of the fund’s assets held during the account period,
the fund shall be treated as pursuing a full distribution policy notwithstanding that no distribution is made as mentioned in sub-paragraph (1) above.
(3) For the purposes of this Chapter, an offshore fund shall be regarded as not pursuing a full distribution policy with respect to an account period for which the fund does not make up accounts.
(4) For the purposes of this paragraph—
(a) where a period for which an offshore fund makes up accounts includes the whole or part of two or more account periods of the fund, then, subject to paragraph (c) below, income shown in those accounts shall be apportioned between those account periods on a time basis according to the number of days in each period which are comprised in the period for which the accounts are made up;
(b) where a distribution is made for a period which includes the whole or part of two or more account periods of the fund, then, subject to sub-paragraph (5) below, the distribution shall be apportioned between those account periods on a time basis according to the number of days in each period which are comprised in the period for which the distribution is made;
(c) where a distribution is made out of specified income but is not made for a specified period, that income shall be attributed to the account period of the fund in which it in fact arose and the distribution shall be treated as made for that account period; and
(d) where a distribution is made neither for a specified period nor out of specified income, then, subject to sub-paragraph (5) below, it shall be treated as made for the last account period of the fund which ended before the distribution was made.
(5) If, apart from this sub-paragraph, the amount of a distribution made, or treated by virtue of sub-paragraph (4) above as made, for an account period would exceed the income of that period, then, for the purposes of this paragraph—
(a) if the amount of the distribution was determined by apportionment under sub-paragraph (4)(b) above, the excess shall be re-apportioned, as may be just and reasonable, to any other account period which, in whole or in part, falls within the period for which the distribution was made or, if there is more than one such period, between those periods; and
(b) subject to paragraph (a) above, the excess shall be treated as an additional distribution or series of additional distributions made for preceding account periods in respect of which the distribution or, as the case may be, the aggregate distributions would otherwise be less than the income of the period, applying the excess to later account periods before earlier ones, until it is exhausted.
(6) In any case where—
(a) for a period which is or includes an account period, an offshore fund is subject to any restriction as regards the making of distributions, being a restriction imposed by the law of any territory outside the United Kingdom; and
(b) the fund is subject to that restriction by reason of an excess of losses over profits (applying the concepts of “profits” and “losses” in the sense in which and to the extent to which they are relevant for the purposes of the law in question);
then in determining for the purposes of the preceding provisions of this paragraph the amount of the fund’s income for that account period, there shall be allowed as a deduction any amount which, apart from this sub-paragraph, would form part of the income of the fund for that account period and which cannot be distributed by virtue of the restriction.

Funds operating equalisation arrangements

2
(1) In the case of an offshore fund which throughout any account period operates equalisation arrangements, on any occasion in that period when there is a disposal to which this sub-paragraph applies, the fund shall be treated for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule as making a distribution of an amount equal to so much of the consideration for the disposal as, in accordance with this paragraph, represents income accrued to the date of the disposal.
(2) Sub-paragraph (1) above applies to a disposal—
(a) which is a disposal of a material interest in the offshore fund concerned; and
(b) which is a disposal to which this Chapter applies (whether by virtue of section 758(3) or otherwise) or is one to which this Chapter would apply if subsections (5) and (6) of that section applied generally and not only for the purpose of determining whether, by virtue of subsection (3) of that section, there is a disposal to which this Chapter applies; and
(c) which is not a disposal with respect to which the conditions in subsection (4) of that section are fulfilled; and
(d) which is a disposal to the fund itself or to the persons concerned in the management of the fund (“the managers”) in their capacity as such.
(3) On a disposal to which sub-paragraph (1) above applies, the part of the consideration which represents income accrued to the date of the disposal is, subject to sub-paragraph (4) and paragraph 4(4) below, the amount which would be credited to the equalisation account of the offshore fund concerned in respect of accrued income if, on the date of the disposal, the material interest which is disposed of were acquired by another person by way of initial purchase.
(4) If, after the beginning of the period by reference to which the accrued income referred to in sub-paragraph (3) above is calculated, the material interest disposed of by a disposal to which sub-paragraph (1) above applies was acquired by way of initial purchase (whether or not by the person making the disposal)—
(a) there shall be deducted from the amount which, in accordance with sub-paragraph (3) above, would represent income accrued to the date of the disposal, the amount which on that acquisition was credited to the equalisation account of the fund in respect of accrued income; and
(b) if in that period there has been more than one such acquisition of that material interest by way of initial purchase, the deduction to be made under this sub-paragraph shall be the amount so credited to the equalisation account on the latest such acquisition prior to the disposal in question.
(5) Where, by virtue of this paragraph, an offshore fund is treated for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule as making a distribution on the occasion of a disposal, the distribution shall be treated for those purposes—
(a) as complying with paragraph 1(1)(d) above; and
(b) as made out of the income of the fund for the account period in which the disposal occurs; and
(c) as paid, immediately before the disposal, to the person who was then the holder of the interest disposed of.
(6) In any case where—
(a) a distribution in respect of an interest in an offshore fund is made to the managers of the fund, and
(b) their holding of that interest is in their capacity as such, and
(c) at the time of the distribution, the fund is operating equalisation arrangements,
the distribution shall not be taken into account for the purposes of paragraph 1(1) above except to the extent that the distribution is properly referable to that part of the period for which the distribution is made during which that interest has been held by the managers of the fund in their capacity as such.
(7) Subsection (2) of section 758 applies for the purposes of this paragraph as it applies for the purposes of that section.

(1) In any case where—
(a) in an account period of an offshore fund (in this Part of this Schedule referred to as the “primary fund”), the assets of the fund consist of or include interests in another offshore fund; and

Words in Sch. 27 para. 6(1) substituted (with effect in accordance with s. 145(2) of the amending Act) by Finance Act 2004 (c. 12), Sch. 26 para. 14(2)(b) (with Sch. 26 para. 17)

(3) If an account period of the qualifying fund coincides with an account period of the primary fund, then the excess income (if any) of the qualifying fund for that period is the excess income which is attributable to that period of the primary fund.
(4) In a case where sub-paragraph (3) above does not apply, the excess income of the qualifying fund which is attributable to an account period of the primary fund is the appropriate fraction of the excess income (if any) of the qualifying fund for any of its account periods which comprises the whole or any part of the account period of the primary fund and, if there is more than one such account period of the qualifying fund, the aggregate of the excess income (if any) of each of them.

(a) an interest forming part of the assets of the qualifying fund, or
(b) the excess income (as defined in paragraph 8 above) of the qualifying fund,
shall be construed as references to the fraction specified in sub-paragraph (2) below of that interest or excess income.

SCHEDULE 28

PART I DISPOSALS OF INTERESTS IN NON-QUALIFYING FUNDS

Interpretation

1
In this Part of this Schedule “material disposal” means a disposal to which this Chapter applies, otherwise than by virtue of section 758.

Calculation of unindexed gain

2
(1) Where there is a material disposal, there shall first be determined for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule the amount (if any) which, in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph, is the unindexed gain accruing to the person making the disposal.
(2) Subject to section 757(3) to (6) and paragraph 3 below, the unindexed gain accruing on a material disposal is the amount which would be the gain on that disposal for the purposes of the 1992 Act if it were computed—
(a) without regard to any charge to income tax or corporation tax by virtue of section 761; and
(b) without regard to any indexation allowance on the disposal under the 1992 Act.
Words in Sch. 28 para. 2 substituted (6.3.1992 with effect as mentioned in s. 289(1)(2) of the amending Act) by Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 (c. 12), ss. 289, 290, Sch. 10 para. 14(63)(a) (with ss. 60, 101(1), 171, 201(3))

3
(1) If the amount of any chargeable gain or allowable loss which (apart from section 763) would accrue on the material disposal would fall to be determined in a way which, in whole or in part, would take account of the indexation allowance on an earlier disposal to which section 56(2) of the 1992 Act (disposals on a no gain/no loss basis) applies, the unindexed gain on the material disposal shall be computed as if—
(a) no indexation allowance had been available on any such earlier disposal; and
(b) subject to that, neither a gain nor a loss had accrued to the person making such an earlier disposal.
Words in Sch. 28 para. 3 substituted (6.3.1992 with effect as mentioned in s. 289(1)(2) of the amending Act) by Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 (c. 12), ss. 289, 290, Sch. 10 para. 14(63)(b) (with ss. 60, 101(1), 171, 201(3))
(2) If the material disposal forms part of a transfer to which section 162 of the 1992 Act (roll-over relief on transfer of business) applies, the unindexed gain accruing on the disposal shall be computed without regard to any deduction which falls to be made under that section in computing a chargeable gain.
(3) If the material disposal is made otherwise than under a bargain at arm’s length and a claim for relief is made in respect of that disposal under section 165 or 260 of the 1992 Act (relief for gifts) the claim shall not affect the computation of the unindexed gain accruing on the disposal.
(4) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Sch. 28 para. 3(4) repealed (with effect in accordance with Sch. 8 para. 55 of the repealing Act) by Finance Act 1995 (c. 4), Sch. 29 Pt. 8(5), Note 1
(5) Notwithstanding section 16 of the 1992 Act (losses determined in like manner as gains) if, apart from this sub-paragraph, the effect of any computation under the preceding provisions of this Part of this Schedule would be to produce a loss, the unindexed gain on the material disposal shall be treated as nil; and accordingly for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule no loss shall be treated as accruing on a material disposal.
(6) Section 431 has effect in relation to sub-paragraph (4) above as if it were included in Chapter I of Part XII.

Gains since 1st January 1984

4
(1) This paragraph applies where—
(a) the interest in the offshore fund which is disposed of by the person making a material disposal was acquired by him before 1st January 1984; or
(b) he is treated by virtue of any provision of sub-paragraphs (3) and (4) below as having acquired the interest before that date.
(2) Where this paragraph applies, there shall be determined for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule the amount which would have been the gain on the material disposal—
(a) on the assumption that, on 1st January 1984, the interest was disposed of and immediately reacquired for a consideration equal to its market value at that time; and
(b) subject to that, on the basis that the gain is computed in like manner as, under paragraphs 2 and 3 above, the unindexed gain on the material disposal is determined;
and that amount is in paragraph 5 below referred to as the “post-1983 gain” on the material disposal.
(3) Where the person making the material disposal acquired the interest disposed of—
(a) on or after 1st January 1984, and
(b) in such circumstances that, by virtue of any enactment other than section 56, 57, 131 or 145 of the 1992 Act (indexation provisions), he and the person from whom he acquired it (“the previous owner”) fell to be treated for the purposes of the 1992 Act as if his acquisition were for a consideration of such an amount as would secure that, on the disposal under which he acquired it, neither a gain nor a loss accrued to the previous owner,
Words in Sch. 28 para. 4(3)(b) substituted (6.3.1992 with effect as mentioned in s. 289(1)(2) of the amending Act) by Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 (c. 12), ss. 289, 290, Sch. 10 para. 14(63)(c) (with ss. 60, 101(1), 171, 201(3))
the previous owner’s acquisition of the interest shall be treated as his acquisition of it.
(4) If the previous owner acquired the interest disposed of on or after 1st January 1984 and in circumstances similar to those referred to in sub-paragraph (3) above, his predecessor’s acquisition of the interest shall be treated for the purposes of this paragraph as the previous owner’s acquisition, and so on back through previous acquisitions in similar circumstances until the first such acquisition before 1st January 1984 or, as the case may be, until an acquisition on a material disposal on or after that date.

The offshore income gain

5
(1) Subject to sub-paragraph (2) below, a material disposal gives rise to an offshore income gain of an amount equal to the unindexed gain on that disposal.
(2) In any case where—
(a) paragraph 4 above applies, and
(b) the post-1983 gain on the material disposal is less than the unindexed gain on the disposal,
the offshore income gain to which the disposal gives rise is an amount equal to the post-1983 gain.

PART II DISPOSALS INVOLVING AN EQUALISATION ELEMENT

6
(1) Subject to paragraph 7 below, a disposal to which this Chapter applies by virtue of section 758(3) gives rise to an offshore income gain of an amount equal to the equalisation element relevant to the asset disposed of.
(2) Subject to sub-paragraphs (4) to (6) below, the equalisation element relevant to the asset disposed of by a disposal falling within sub-paragraph (1) above is the amount which would be credited to the equalisation account of the offshore fund concerned in respect of accrued income if, on the date of the disposal, the asset which is disposed of were acquired by another person by way of initial purchase.
(3) In the following provisions of this Part of this Schedule, a disposal falling within sub-paragraph (1) above is referred to as a “disposal involving an equalisation element”.
(4) Where the asset disposed of by a disposal involving an equalisation element was acquired by the person making the disposal after the beginning of the period by reference to which the accrued income referred to in sub-paragraph (2) above is calculated, the amount which, apart from this sub-paragraph, would be the equalisation element relevant to that asset shall be reduced by the following amount, that is to say—
(a) if that acquisition took place on or after 1st January 1984, the amount which, on that acquisition, was credited to the equalisation account of the offshore fund concerned in respect of accrued income or, as the case may be, would have been so credited if that acquisition had been an acquisition by way of initial purchase; and
(b) in any other case, the amount which would have been credited to that account in respect of accrued income if that acquisition had been an acquisition by way of initial purchase taking place on 1st January 1984.
(5) In any case where—
(a) the asset disposed of by a disposal involving an equalisation element was acquired by the person making the disposal at or before the beginning of the period by reference to which the accrued income referred to in sub-paragraph (2) above is calculated, and
(b) that period began before 1st January 1984 and ends after that date,
the amount which, apart from this sub-paragraph, would be the equalisation element relevant to that asset shall be reduced by the amount which would have been credited to the equalisation account of the offshore fund concerned in respect of accrued income if the acquisition referred to in paragraph (a) above had been an acquisition by way of initial purchase taking place on 1st January 1984.
(6) Where there is a disposal involving an equalisation element, then, to the extent that any amount which was or would be credited to the equalisation account of the offshore fund in respect of accrued income, as mentioned in any of sub-paragraphs (2) to (5) above, represents profits from dealing in commodities, within the meaning of paragraph 4 of Schedule 27, one half of that accrued income shall be left out of account in determining under those sub-paragraphs the equalisation element relevant to the asset disposed of by that disposal.

7
(1) For the purposes of this Part of this Schedule, there shall be determined, in accordance with paragraph 8 below, the Part I gain (if any) on any disposal involving an equalisation element.
(2) Notwithstanding anything in paragraph 6 above—
(a) if there is no Part I gain on a disposal involving an equalisation element, that disposal shall not give rise to an offshore income gain; and
(b) if, apart from this paragraph, the offshore income gain on a disposal involving an equalisation element would exceed the Part I gain on that disposal, the offshore income gain to which that disposal gives rise shall be reduced to an amount equal to that Part I gain.

8
(1) On a disposal involving an equalisation element, the Part I gain is the amount (if any) which, by virtue of Part I of this Schedule (as modified by sub-paragraphs (2) to (5) below), would be the offshore income gain on that disposal if it were a material disposal within the meaning of that Part.
(2) For the purposes only of the application of Part I of this Schedule to determine the Part I gain (if any) on a disposal involving an equalisation element, subsections (5) and (6) of section 758 shall have effect as if, in subsection (5), the words “by virtue of subsection (3) above” were omitted.
(3) If a disposal involving an equalisation element is one which, by virtue of any enactment other than section 56, 57, 131 or 145 of the 1992 Act, is treated for the purposes of the 1992 Act as one on which neither a gain nor a loss accrues to the person making the disposal, then, for the purpose only of determining the Part I gain (if any) on the disposal, that enactment shall be deemed not to apply to it (but without prejudice to the application of that enactment to any earlier disposal).
Words in Sch. 28 para. 8(3) substituted (6.3.1992 with effect as mentioned in s. 289(1)(2) of the amending Act) by Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 (c. 12), ss. 289, 290, Sch. 10 para. 14(63)(c) (with ss. 60, 101(1), 171, 201(3))
(4) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Sch. 28 para. 8(4)(5) repealed (6.3.1992 with effect as mentioned in s. 289(1)(2) of the amending Act) by Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 (c. 12), ss. 289, 290, Sch. 12 (with ss. 60, 101(1), 171, 201(3), Sch. 11 paras. 22, 26(2), 27)

(a) a claim is made for the purposes of paragraph 6 above;
(b) the disadvantaged person is entitled, on that claim, to make a computation, or to have an adjustment made in his case, on the basis that the arm’s length provision was made or imposed instead of the actual provision;

(5) Where, in a case in which a claim has been made for the purposes of paragraph 6 above, any adjustment is required to be made for the purpose of giving effect to any of the preceding provisions of this paragraph—
(a) it may be made in any case by setting the amount of the adjustment against any relief or repayment to which the disadvantaged person is entitled in pursuance of that claim; and
(b) nothing in the Tax Acts limiting the time within which any assessment is to be or may be made or amended shall prevent that adjustment from being so made.
(6) References in this paragraph to relevant profits of the disadvantaged person are references to profits arising to the disadvantaged person from the carrying on of the relevant activities.

(1) A scheme or arrangement, other than a scheme or arrangement falling within sub-paragraph (3), is a prescribed scheme or arrangement if one or more of paragraphs 2 to 6 apply to it.
(2) A scheme or arrangement falling within sub-paragraph (3) is a prescribed scheme or arrangement if one or more of paragraphs 2 to 6 would, on the assumption in sub-paragraph (4), apply to it.
(3) A scheme or arrangement falls within this sub-paragraph if its main purpose, or one of its main purposes, is to cause an amount of underlying tax allowable in respect of a dividend paid by a body corporate resident in a territory outside the United Kingdom to be taken into account in the case of a person.
(4) The assumption is that the body corporate is resident in the United Kingdom.
(5) Nothing in sub-paragraph (4) requires it to be assumed that there is any change in the place or places at which the body corporate carries on its activities.

Attribution of foreign tax

This paragraph applies to a scheme or arrangement if the scheme or arrangement enables a person who is party to, or concerned in, the scheme or arrangement to pay, in respect of a source of income or chargeable gain, an amount of foreign tax all or part of which is properly attributable to another source of income or chargeable gain (or to more than one such other source).

Effect of paying foreign tax

(b) the acquisition provided for by the arrangements falls within sub-paragraph (2) below; and

(2) An acquisition of shares falls within this sub-paragraph if—
(a) the consideration for the old shares consists wholly of the issue of shares (“new shares”) in the new company;
(b) new shares are issued in consideration of old shares only at times when there are no issued shares in the new company other than subscriber shares and new shares previously issued in consideration of old shares;
(c) the consideration for new shares of each description consists wholly of old shares of the corresponding description; and
(d) new shares of each description are issued to the holders of old shares of the corresponding description in respect of, and in proportion to, their holdings.
(3) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(c) above an approval notification is one which, on an application by either the old company or the new company, is given to the applicant company and states that the Board are satisfied that the exchange of shares under the arrangements—
(a) will be effected for bona fide commercial reasons; and
(b) will not form part of any such scheme or arrangements as are mentioned in section 137(1) of the 1992 Act.
(4) If the requirements of paragraph 3 above were satisfied in relation to the old company and any old shares immediately before the beginning of the period for giving effect to the arrangements, then (to the extent that it would not otherwise be the case) those requirements shall be deemed to be satisfied in relation to the new company and the matching new shares at all times which—
(a) fall in that period; and
(b) do not fall after a time when (apart from the arrangements) those requirements would have ceased by virtue of—
(i) sub-paragraph (4) or (5) of that paragraph, or
(ii) any cessation of a trade by any company,
to be satisfied in relation to the old company and the matching old shares.
(5) For the purposes of paragraph 3 above the period of two years mentioned in sub-paragraph (4) of that paragraph shall be deemed, in the case of any new shares, to expire at the same time as it would have expired (or by virtue of this sub-paragraph would have been deemed to expire) in the case of the matching old shares.
(6) Subject to sub-paragraph (7) below, where—
(a) there is an exchange under the arrangements of any new shares for any old shares, and
(b) those old shares are shares in relation to which the requirements of paragraphs 6 and 8 above were (or were deemed to be) satisfied to any extent immediately before the exchange,
those requirements shall be deemed, at all times after that time, to be satisfied to the same extent in relation to the matching new shares.
(7) Where there is a time following any exchange under the arrangements of any new shares for any old shares when (apart from the arrangements) the requirements of paragraph 6 above would have ceased under—
(a) sub-paragraph (2) of that paragraph, or
(b) this sub-paragraph,
to be satisfied in relation to those old shares, those requirements shall cease at that time to be satisfied in relation to the matching new shares.
(8) For the purposes of paragraph 7 above any new shares acquired under the arrangements shall be deemed to represent an investment which—
(a) raised the same amount of money as was raised (or, by virtue of this sub-paragraph, is deemed to have been raised) by the issue of the matching old shares, and
(b) raised that amount by an issue of shares in the new company made at the time when the issue of the matching old shares took place (or, as the case may be, is deemed to have taken place).
(9) In determining whether the requirements of paragraph 9 above are satisfied in relation to the old company or the new company at a time in the period for giving effect to the arrangements, both—
(a) the arrangements themselves, and
(b) any exchange of new shares for old shares that has already taken place under the arrangements,
shall be disregarded.
(10) For the purposes of paragraph 10B above the value of the new shares, both immediately after the time of their acquisition and immediately after the time of any subsequent relevant event occurring by virtue of the arrangements, shall be taken to be the same as the value, when last valued in accordance with that paragraph, of the old shares for which they are exchanged.
(11) Nothing in this paragraph shall deem any of the requirements of this Schedule to be satisfied in relation to any new shares unless the matching old shares were first issued to the trust company and have been held by that company from the time when they were issued until they are acquired by the new company.
(12) References in this paragraph to the period for giving effect to the arrangements are references to the period which—
(a) begins with the time when those arrangements first came into existence; and
(b) ends with the time when the new company completes its acquisition under the arrangements of all the old shares.
(13) If, at any time after the arrangements first came into existence and before the new company has acquired all the old shares, the arrangements—
(a) cease to be arrangements for the acquisition of all the old shares by the new company, or
