(1)M1Notwithstanding anything in [F1section 65], but subject to the provisions of this section, income tax chargeable under Case IV or V of Schedule D shall, in the case of property situated and [F2profits] arising in the Republic of Ireland, be computed on the full amount of the income arising in the year of assessment, whether the income has been or will be received in the United Kingdom or not, subject in the case of income not received in the United Kingdom—
(a)to the same deductions and allowances as if it had been so received; and
(b)to a deduction on account of any annuity or other annual payment (not being interest) payable out of the income to a person not resident in the United Kingdom.
(2)Subsection (1) above shall not apply—
(a)to any income which is immediately derived by a person from the carrying on by him of any trade, profession or vocation, either solely or in partnership; or
(b)to any income which arises from any pension.
(3)The tax in respect of any such income as is mentioned in subsection (2) above arising in the Republic of Ireland shall be computed either—
(a)on the full amount thereof arising in the year of assessment; or
(b)on the full amount thereof on an average of such period as the case may require and as may be directed by the inspector;
so that, according to the nature of the income, the tax may be computed on the same basis as that on which it would have been computed if the income had arisen in the United Kingdom, and subject in either case to a deduction on account of any annuity or other annual payment (not being interest) payable out of the income to a person not resident in the United Kingdom; and the person chargeable and assessable shall be entitled to the same allowances, deductions and reliefs as if the income had arisen in the United Kingdom.
The jurisdiction of the General or Special Commissioners on any appeal shall include jurisdiction to review the inspector’s decision under this subsection.
[F3(3A)The fact that the allocations of shares in the company to which persons who are not directors or employees of the company are entitled are smaller than those to which directors or employees of the company are entitled shall not be regarded for the purposes of subsection (2)(b) above as meaning that they are not entitled on similar terms if—
(a)each of the first-mentioned persons is also entitled, by reason of his office or employment and in priority to members of the public, to an allocation of shares in another company or companies which are offered to the public (at a fixed rate or by tender) at the same time as the shares in the company, and
(b)in the case of each of those persons the aggregate value (measured by reference to the fixed price or the lowest price successfully tendered) of all the shares included in the allocations to which he is entitled is the same, or as nearly the same as is reasonably practicable, as that of the shares in the company included in the entitlement of a comparable director or employee of the company.]
(4)In charging any income which is excluded from subsection (1) above by subsection (2)(a) above there shall be the same limitation on reliefs as under section 391(2) in the case of income computed by virtue of section 65(3) in accordance with the rules applicable to Cases I and II of Schedule D.
(5)In charging income arising from a pension under subsection (3) above, a deduction of one-tenth shall be allowed unless it is the income of a person falling within section 65(4).
