(1)This section applies in any case where—
(a)a balancing charge of any amount would, apart from this section, be made for any chargeable period (“the relevant period”) on any person (“the shipowner”) in respect of a trade carried on by him (his “actual trade”);
(b)there is, in the relevant period, an event falling within section 24(6)(c)(i) to (iii);
(c)that event is one occurring on or after 21st April 1994 with respect to a ship (“the old ship”) provided by the shipowner for the purposes of his actual trade and belonging to him at some time in the relevant period;
(d)the old ship was a qualifying ship immediately before that event;
(e)the shipowner’s expenditure on the provision of the old ship is not expenditure treated for any purposes by virtue of section 41(2), 61(1), 79(2) or 80(5) as expenditure incurred for the purposes of a trade carried on separately from his actual trade; and
(f)the old ship has not begun, and is not treated as having begun, before the event mentioned in paragraph (b) above, to be used partly, but not wholly, for purposes other than those of the shipowner’s actual trade.
(2)If—
(a)the shipowner makes a claim in respect of the event mentioned in subsection (1)(b) above for the deferment under this section of the whole or part of the charge which would be made on him, and
(b)none of the amounts specified in subsection (3) below is nil,
the amount for which deferment is claimed, so far as it does not exceed the smallest of those amounts, shall for the purposes of sections 24, 25 and 26 be added to the shipowner’s qualifying expenditure for the relevant period in respect of his actual trade.
(3)Subject to the following provisions of this section, those amounts are—
(a)the amount which, in accordance with section 33B, is treated as brought into account in respect of the old ship;
[F2(b)the amount of any expenditure incurred or to be incurred by qualifying persons in the period of six years beginning with the day on which the event mentioned in subsection (1)(b) above occurs, so far as that expenditure is, or (when incurred) will be, expenditure to which an addition made under this section in respect of that event may be attributed in accordance with subsection (5) below;]
(c)the amount of the balancing charge which, apart only from the claim in question, would be made on the shipowner for the relevant period in respect of his actual trade; and
(d)the amount which, on the assumption—
(i)that any other additions under this section to the shipowner’s qualifying expenditure for the relevant period are taken into account, but
(ii)that amounts carried forward under section 385 or 393 of the principal Act (losses carried forward) are disregarded,
would have the effect of reducing to nil the amount (if any) falling to be taken into account, in computing the shipowner’s total profits or total income for that period, as the trading income of that trade or, as the case may be, as profits or gains arising from that trade.
(4)If—
(a)an addition is made under this section to the shipowner’s qualifying expenditure for the relevant period in respect of his actual trade, but
[F3(b)circumstances arise in which the whole or any part of the addition ceases (otherwise than by being attributed) to be an amount that may be attributed, in accordance with subsection (5) below, to expenditure on new shipping incurred by qualifying persons in the period of six years mentioned in subsection (3)(b) above,
the shipowner shall be assumed not to have been entitled to so much of the addition as will not be so attributed.]
[F4(5)Subject to subsection (5A) below and to section 33D(6), where—
(a)an addition is made under this section to the shipowner’s qualifying expenditure for the relevant period in respect of his actual trade, and
(b)expenditure on new shipping is incurred by a qualifying person in the period of six years mentioned in subsection (3)(b) above,
the shipowner may, by notice to an officer of the Board, attribute to that expenditure so much of the addition as is equal to so much of the expenditure as is not already the subject of an attribution under this subsection.
(5A)A notice under subsection (5) above shall not have effect in a case where the shipowner and the qualifying person to whose expenditure the notice relates are not the same person unless that person joins with the shipowner in the giving of that notice.]
(6)A balancing charge falling by virtue of section 41(2), 79(5) or 80(5) to be made for the relevant period in the case of the shipowner’s actual trade shall be disregarded in determining the amount referred to in subsection (3)(c) above.
(7)In consequence of paragraph (d) of subsection (3) above, no addition shall be made under this section to the shipowner’s qualifying expenditure for the relevant period in respect of his actual trade if—
(a)the amount falling (after disregarding any amounts carried forward under section 385 or 393 of the principal Act) to be taken into account as mentioned in that paragraph would have been nil even apart from this section, or
(b)he has, apart from this section, incurred a loss in that trade for the relevant period.
[F5(8)In this section and the following provisions of this Chapter references to a qualifying person, in relation to any expenditure, are references to—
(a)the shipowner; and
(b)where the shipowner is a company, any company which, at the time when the expenditure is or is to be incurred, is or (as the case may be) would be a member of the same group of companies as the shipowner;
and for the purposes of this subsection two companies are members of the same group of companies at any time if, at that time, they are treated as members of the same group of companies for the purposes of Chapter IV of Part X of the principal Act (group relief).]]
