Chapter 4U.K. THE RELEVANT INTEREST IN THE FLAT

393F General rule as to what is the relevant interestU.K.

(1)The relevant interest in a flat in relation to any qualifying expenditure is the interest in the flat to which the person who incurred the expenditure was entitled when it was incurred.

(2)Subsection (1) is subject to the following provisions of this Chapter and to section 393V (provisions applying on termination of lease).

(3)If—

(a)the person who incurred the qualifying expenditure was entitled to more than one interest in the flat when the expenditure was incurred, and

(b)one of those interests was reversionary on all the others,

the reversionary interest is the relevant interest in the flat.

(4)An interest does not cease to be the relevant interest merely because of the creation of a lease or other interest to which that interest is subject.

(5)If—

(a)the relevant interest is a leasehold interest, and

(b)that interest is extinguished on the person entitled to it acquiring the interest which is reversionary on it,

the interest into which the leasehold interest merges becomes the relevant interest when the leasehold interest is extinguished.]
