Section 529: Exceptions to section 528
2073.This section is based on section 553 of ICTA.
2074.Because the reduction under this section is not made if the policy is held by non-UK resident trustees, it is the unreduced gain which is taken into account for the purposes of section 740 of ICTA where section 468 applies.
2075.Subsection (2) applies the rules in section 110 of FA 1989, which determine when a body of trustees, one or more of whom would be regarded as resident in the United Kingdom and one or more of whom would not be so regarded, are all to be regarded as resident in the United Kingdom or not so resident.
2076.The source legislation does not take account of section 110 of FA 1989. Although section 110 of FA 1989 applies only to 1989-90 and subsequent years, it is applied here in respect of all earlier years where necessary, as it would be impractical to apply the provision using two different tests of residence status. See Change 96 in Annex 1.
2077.See also section 546 (table of provisions subject to special rules for older policies and contracts). Change 96 is not applied in paragraph 106 of Schedule 2 to this Act as that paragraph refers to a time wholly before the rule introduced by FA 1989 applies (see paragraph 106(3)).
