Transitional and savings for Chapter II of Part II of the Finance Act 1993U.K.
22(1)Chapter II of Part II of the M1Finance Act 1993 (exchange gains and losses) shall have effect in the case of any continuing loan relationship as follows.
(2)Subsection (1A) of section 127 of that Act (deemed variation of debt in respect of amounts accruing in respect of discounts and premiums) shall have effect in relation to the debt by reference to which the continuing loan relationship at any time subsists as if that debt is one to which the company became subject or entitled on 1st April 1996; and, accordingly, that subsection shall require the nominal amount of the debt outstanding to be treated as varied only where the time of the deemed variation is on or after 1st April 1996.
(3)Where section 127 of that Act has effect in relation to any debt by reference to which a continuing loan relationship at any time subsists, it shall so have effect, so far as the debt is one to which the company is deemed by virtue of sub-paragraph (2) above to have become subject or entitled on 1st April 1996, as if the nominal amount of the debt outstanding on that date were an amount equal to what it would have been if—
(a)sub-paragraph (2) above did not apply; and
(b)section 127(1A) of the M2Finance Act 1993 and the provisions to which it refers had always had effect.
(4)The amendment by this Act of section 153(4) of the Finance Act 1993 (assets excluded from being qualifying assets) shall not apply as respects times before 1st April 1996; and, where a company holds an asset immediately before and on 1st April 1996 and that asset is one which falls to be treated as a qualifying asset by virtue of that amendment—
(a)the company shall be treated as having become entitled to that asset on that date; and
(b)the basic valuation of the asset shall be taken to be its market value on 31st March 1996 (instead of any amount given by section 159 of that Act of 1993);
and in this sub-paragraph “market value” has the same meaning as in the 1992 Act.
(5)The repeal by this Act of section 153(6) of the Finance Act 1993 (liabilities excluded from being qualifying liabilities) shall not have effect as respects times before 1st April 1996; and, where a company is subject to a liability immediately before and on 1st April 1996 and that liability is one which falls to be treated as a qualifying liability by virtue of that repeal, the company shall be treated as having become subject to that liability on that date.
(6)The repeal by this Act of paragraphs 4 to 6 of Schedule 17 to the Finance Act 1993 (exchange gains and losses) shall not have effect in relation to any disposal before 1st April 1996.
