(3)The company may, on making a claim, require the excess to be deducted from any profits—

(a)of the current accounting period, and

(b)if the company was then within the charge to tax, of any previous accounting period ending within the carry-back period.

(4)The carry-back period is a period which—

(a)is of the same length as the current accounting period, and

(b)ends at the start of the current accounting period.

(5)If the preceding accounting period began before the start of the carry-back period, the total amount of deductions that may be made from the profits of the preceding accounting period under—

(a)subsection (3), and

(b)any corresponding provision of the Corporation Tax Acts relating to losses,

must not exceed a part of those profits proportionate to the part of the period falling within the carry-back period.

(6)A claim under subsection (3) must be made no later than 2 years after the end of the current accounting period.

(7)If the deduction of the allowance (or of part of it) was subject to the restriction in section 259(3)—
