(b)the supply in question is one made by a charity or local authority or one which (if it is made) will be made by a person who is a charity or local authority at the time when the sports supply is made;

(e)the supply in question–
(i)is a grant falling within Note (6)(a) to (c) which is made for no consideration; but
(ii)falls to be treated as a supply of goods or services, or (if it is made) will fall to be so treated, by reason only of the application, in accordance with paragraph 9 of Schedule 4, of paragraph 5 of that Schedule.
(8)Subject to Note (10), a person shall be taken, for the purposes of this Group, to have been associated with a body at any of the following times, that is to say–
(a)the time when a supply was made to that body by that person;
(b)the time when an emolument was paid by that body to that person; or
(c)the time when an agreement was in existence for the making of a relevant supply or the payment of emoluments,
if, at that time, or at another time (whether before or after that time) in the relevant period, that person was an officer or shadow officer of that body or an intermediary for supplies to that body.
(9)Subject to Note (10), a person shall also be taken, for the purposes of this Group, to have been associated with a body at a time mentioned in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of Note (8) if, at that time, he was connected with another person who in accordance with that Note–

(b)would be taken to have been so associated were that time the time of a supply by the other person to that body.
(10)Subject to Note (11), a person shall not be taken for the purposes of this Group to have been associated with a body at a time mentioned in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of Note (8) if the only times in the relevant period when that person or the person connected with him was an officer or shadow officer of the body are times before 1st January 2000.
(11)Note (10) does not apply where (but for that Note) the body would be treated as subject to commercial influence at any time in the relevant period by virtue of–

(b)anything done in pursuance of any such agreement.
(12)For the purposes of this Group a person shall be taken, in relation to a sports supply, to have been at all times in the relevant period an intermediary for supplies to the body making that supply if–

(b)the circumstances were such that, if–
(i)that body had been the person to whom the supply was made or (in the case of an agreement) the person to whom it was to be or might be made; and
(ii)Note (7) above were to be disregarded to the extent (if at all) that it would prevent the supply from being a relevant supply, the body would have fallen to be regarded in relation to the sports supply as subject to commercial influence.
(13)In determining for the purposes of Note (12) or this Note whether there are such circumstances as are mentioned in paragraph (b) of that Note in the case of any supply, that Note and this Note shall be applied first for determining whether the person by whom the supply was made, or was to be or might be made, was himself an intermediary for supplies to the body in question, and so on through any number of other supplies or agreements.
(14)In determining for the purposes of this Group whether a supply made by any person was made by an intermediary for supplies to a body, it shall be immaterial that the supply by that person was made before the making of the supply or agreement by reference to which that person falls to be regarded as such an intermediary.
(15)Without prejudice to the generality of subsection (1AA) of section 43, for the purpose of determining–
(a)whether a relevant supply has at any time been made to any person;
(b)whether there has at any time been an agreement for the making of a relevant supply to any person; and
(c)whether a person falls to be treated as an intermediary for the supplies to any body by reference to supplies that have been, were to be or might have been made to him,
references in the preceding Notes to a supply shall be deemed to include references to a supply falling for other purposes to be disregarded in accordance with section 43(1)(a).

1(1)Subject to paragraph 2 below, the Commissioners may give a direction under this Schedule if, in any case—U.K.
(a)a relevant event has occurred;
(b)the condition specified in sub-paragraph (3) below is fulfilled;
(c)that condition would not be fulfilled apart from the occurrence of that event; and
(d)in the case of an event falling within sub-paragraph (2)(b) below, the transaction in question is not a supply which is the only supply by reference to which the case falls within paragraphs (a) to (c) above.
(2)For the purposes of this Schedule, a relevant event occurs when a body corporate—
(a)begins to be, or ceases to be, treated as a member of a group; or
(b)enters into any transaction.
(3)The condition mentioned in sub-paragraph (1) above is that—
(a)there has been, or will or may be, a taxable supply on which VAT has been, or will or may be, charged otherwise than by reference to the supply’s full value;
(b)there is at least a part of the supply which is not or, as the case may be, would not be zero-rated; and
(c)the charging of VAT on the supply otherwise than by reference to its full value gives rise or, as the case may be, would give rise to a tax advantage.
(4)For the purposes of this paragraph the charging of VAT on a supply (“the undercharged supply”) otherwise than by reference to its full value shall be taken to give rise to a tax advantage if, and only if, a person has become entitled—
(a)to credit for input tax allowable as attributable to that supply or any part of it, or
(b)in accordance with regulations under section 39, to any repayment in respect of that supply or any part of it.
(5)The cases where a person shall be taken for the purposes of sub-paragraph (4) above to have become entitled to a credit for input tax allowable as attributable to the undercharged supply, or to a part of it, shall include any case where—
(a)a person has become entitled to a credit for any input tax on the supply to him, or the acquisition or importation by him, of any goods or services; and
(b)whatever the supplies to which the credit was treated as attributable when the entitlement to it arose, those goods or services are used by him in making the undercharged supply, or a part of it.
(6)For the purposes of sub-paragraphs (4) and (5) above where—
(a)there is a supply of any of the assets of a business of a person (“the transferor”) to a person to whom the whole or any part of that business is transferred as a going concern (“the transferee”), and
(b)that supply is treated, in accordance with an order under section 5(3), as being neither a supply of goods nor a supply of services,
the question, so far as it falls to be determined by reference to those assets, whether a credit for input tax to which any person has become entitled is one allowable as attributable to the whole or any part of a supply shall be determined as if the transferor and the transferee were the same person.
(7)Where, in a case to which sub-paragraph (6) above applies, the transferor himself acquired any of the assets in question by way of a supply falling within paragraphs (a) and (b) of that sub-paragraph, that sub-paragraph shall have the effect, as respects the assets so acquired, of requiring the person from whom those assets were acquired to be treated for the purposes of sub-paragraphs (4) and (5) above as the same person as the transferor and the transferee, and so on in the case of any number of successive supplies falling within those paragraphs.
(8)For the purposes of this paragraph any question—
(a)whether any credit for input tax to which a person has become entitled was, or is to be taken to have been, a credit allowable as attributable to the whole or any part of a supply, or
(b)whether any repayment is a repayment in respect of the whole or any part of a supply,
shall be determined, in relation to a supply of a right to goods or services or to a supply of goods or services by virtue of such a right, as if the supply of the right and supplies made by virtue of the right were a single supply of which the supply of the right and each of those supplies constituted different parts.
(9)References in this paragraph to the full value of a supply are references to the amount which (having regard to any direction under paragraph 1 of Schedule 6) would be the full value of that supply for the purposes of the charge to VAT if that supply were not a supply falling to be disregarded, to any extent, in pursuance of section 43(1)(a).
(10)References in this paragraph to the supply of a right to goods or services include references to the supply of any right, option or priority with respect to the supply of goods or services, and to the supply of an interest deriving from any right to goods or services.
2[F318(1)] The Commissioners shall not give a direction under this Schedule by reference to a relevant event if they are satisfied that—U.K.
(a)the change in the treatment of the body corporate, or
(b)the transaction in question,
had as its main purpose or, as the case may be, as each of its main purposes a genuine commercial purpose unconnected with the fulfilment of the condition specified in paragraph 1(3) above.
[F319(2)This paragraph shall not apply where the relevant event is the termination of a body corporate’s treatment as a member of a group by a notice under section 43C(1) or (3).]

(a)to credit for input tax, or
(b)to a repayment in accordance with regulations under section 39,
which (whether as an entitlement of the person in relation to whom the assessment is made or as an entitlement of any other person) would have arisen on the assumptions contained in the direction, but not otherwise.

(8)Sub-paragraph (7) above does not have effect if or to the extent that the assessment in question has been withdrawn or reduced.
(9)Sections 74 and 77(6) apply in relation to assessments under this paragraph as they apply in relation to assessments under section 73 but as if the reference in subsection (1) of section 74 to the reckonable date were a reference to the date on which the assessment is notified.
