93 Matching: special cases.
1
Subsection (2) or (3) below applies (if the case permits) where—
a
a capital payment is made by the trustees of a settlement on or after 6th April 1992,
b
the payment is made in a year of assessment for which section 87 applies to the settlement or in circumstances where section 89(2) treats chargeable gains as accruing in respect of the payment, and
c
a beneficiary is charged to tax in respect of the payment by virtue of section 87 or 89(2).
2
If the whole payment is matched with qualifying amounts of the settlement for different years of assessment, each falling at some time before that immediately preceding the one in which the payment is made, then—
a
the capital payment (“the main payment”) shall be treated as being as many payments (“subsidiary payments”) as there are qualifying amounts,
b
a qualifying amount shall be attributed to each subsidiary payment and each payment shall be quantified accordingly, and
c
the tax in respect of the main payment shall be divided up and attributed to the subsidiary payments on the basis of a just and reasonable apportionment,
and section 91 shall apply in the case of each subsidiary payment, the qualifying amount attributed to it and the tax attributed to it.
3
If part of the payment is matched with a qualifying amount of the settlement for a year of assessment falling at some time before that immediately preceding the one in which the payment is made, or with qualifying amounts of the settlement for different years of assessment each so falling, then—
a
only tax in respect of so much of the payment as is so matched shall be taken into account, and references below to the tax shall be construed accordingly,
b
the capital payment shall be divided into 2, the first part representing so much as is matched as mentioned above and the second so much as is not,
c
the second part shall be ignored, and
d
the first part shall be treated as a capital payment, the whole of which is matched with the qualifying amount or amounts mentioned above, and the whole of which is charged to the tax,
and section 91, or that section and subsections (1) and (2) above (as the case may be), shall apply in the case of the capital payment arrived at under this subsection, the qualifying amount or amounts, and the tax.
4
Section 91 and subsections (1) to (3) above shall apply (with appropriate modifications) where a payment or part of a payment is to any extent matched with part of an amount.
