19(1)This paragraph applies if a company (“the degrouped company”)—U.K.

(a)acquired an asset from another company at a time when both were members of the same group of companies (“the old group”); and

(b)ceases by virtue of a transfer to which this Part of this Schedule applies to be a member of the old group.

(2)Section 179 of the 1992 Act (company ceasing to be member of group) is not to treat the degrouped company as having by virtue of the transfer sold and immediately reacquired the asset.

(a)the degrouped company, and

(b)the company from which it acquired the asset,

had been members of the new group at the time of acquisition.

(4)Expressions used in this paragraph and in section 179 of the 1992 Act have the same meanings in this paragraph as in that section.
