In subsection (2A) (amounts not required to be taken into account by subsection (2)) for paragraph (a) (amounts which are entirely notional) substitute—

After that subsection insert—

“(2AA)

For the purposes of subsection (2A)(a) above, an amount brought into account as mentioned in paragraphs (a) to (d) of subsection (2) above for a period of account is to be regarded as notional income for the period of account if—

(a)

it represents income which has not been received, and is not receivable, from another person, and

(b)

a corresponding notional expense of the same amount is brought into account in the period of account;

and where particular income falls to be regarded as notional income under this subsection, the notional expense by virtue of which that income falls to be so regarded may not be taken into account for determining whether any other income is to be so regarded.

(2AB)

In subsection (2AA) above “notional expense” means an expense which has not been paid, and is not payable, to another person and which—

(a)

is not deductible in computing the profits of the company in respect of its life assurance business in accordance with the provisions of the Taxes Act 1988 applicable to Case I of Schedule D, but

(b)

had it represented an amount paid or payable to another person, would have been so deductible.

(a)

one or more inter-fund transfers (“transfers-in”) are made into a fund and one or more inter-fund transfers (“transfers-out”) are made out of the fund, and

the amount brought into account for the period of account as other income in respect of the transfers-in represents the amount by which—

(i)

the amount or aggregate amount of the transfers-in, exceeds

(ii)
