(b) his interest in the building in question is or was subject to a lease or a licence at the relevant time.

(2) If the person’s interest in the building is an asset of [F1 a UK property business, or a Schedule A business,] carried on by him at any time in the relevant period, the allowance or charge is to be given effect in calculating the profits of that business for the relevant period, by treating—

(a) the allowance as an expense of that business, and

(b) the charge as a receipt of that business.

(3) If the person’s interest in the building is an asset of an overseas property business carried on by him at any time in the relevant period, the allowance or charge is to be given effect in calculating the profits of the overseas property business for the relevant period, by treating—

(a) the allowance as an expense of that business, and

(b) the charge as a receipt of that business.

[F2 (3A) If the person is within the charge to income tax in respect of the allowance or charge and his interest in the building is not an asset of any property business carried on by him at any time in the relevant period, the allowance or charge is to be given effect by treating him as if he had been carrying on a UK property business in that period and as if—

(a) the allowance were an expense of that business, and

(b) the charge were a receipt of that business.]

(4) If [F3 the person is a company within the charge to corporation tax in respect of the allowance or charge and its] interest in the building is not an asset of any property business carried on by [F4 it] at any time in the relevant period, the allowance or charge is to be given effect by treating [F5 the company] as if [F6 it] had been carrying on a Schedule A business in that period and as if—

(a) the allowance were an expense of that business, and

(b) the charge were a receipt of that business.

(5) In subsection (1) “the relevant time” means—
