Section 330: Exception for payments more than 7 years after agreement

1118.This section is based on section 4A(7), (11) and (12) of CAA 1990. It provides an exception to section 328 for certain payments made more than 7 years after the agreement to incur qualifying expenditure.

1119.Subsections (1) and (2) set out the circumstances in which the exception applies. And subsections (3) and (4) set out the circumstances when it does not. The latter are broadly relevant if arrangements are in place which make a disposal certain or substantially more likely.
