Income Tax (Trading and Other Income) Act 2005

Paragraph 338: section 833 of ICTA

3473.Section 531(6) of ICTA provides that income from the disposal of know-how is to be earned income in certain cases. However, the concept of earned income is not rewritten in this Act. This paragraph rewrites section 531(6) of ICTA as subsection (5A) of section 833 of ICTA.

3474.Section 529 of ICTA provides that “income from patent rights” is to be earned income in certain cases. However, the concept of earned income is not rewritten in this Act. This paragraph rewrites section 529 of ICTA as subsections (5B) to (5E) of section 833 of ICTA.

3475.There is no definition of “income from patent rights” in Chapter 1 of Part 13 of ICTA. Section 833(5B) of ICTA provides for “patent income” to be earned income in certain circumstances, mirroring the circumstances specified in section 529(1) of ICTA. The definition of “patent income” in new section 833(5D) of ICTA follows the definition of “income from patents” in section 533(1) of ICTA (except that it is drafted by reference to the intellectual property provisions in this Act rather than in ICTA). See Change 152 in Annex 1.
