3(1)For the purposes of the allowances and charges provided for by the [1968 c. 3.] Capital Allowances Act 1968 and by Part III of the [1971 c. 68.] Finance Act 1971 (capital allowances) the trade of the society shall not be treated as permanently discontinued and the trade of the successor company shall not be treated as a new trade set up and commenced by the successor company.
(2)There shall be made to or on the successor company in accordance with those Acts all such allowances and charges as would, if the society had continued to carry on the trade, have fallen to be made to or on it, and the amount of any such allowance or charge shall be computed as if the successor company had been carrying on the trade since the society began to do so and as if everything done to or by the society had been done to or by the successor company.
(3)No transfer of assets from the society to the successor company effected by section 97 of the Building Societies Act 1986 shall be treated as giving rise to any such allowance or charge.
