(1)This section applies if a person (“A”) is assessed to tax under this Chapter in respect of consideration receivable by another person (“B”).
(2)Consideration is not regarded as having become receivable by B for this purpose until B can effectively enjoy or dispose of it.
(3)A is entitled to recover from B any part of the tax which A has paid.
(4)If any part of the tax remains unpaid at the end of the period of 6 months beginning with the date when it became due and payable, it is recoverable from B as if B were the person assessed.
(5)Subsection (4) does not affect the right to recover the tax from A.
(6)For the purposes of this section, any income which an individual is treated as having as a result of this Chapter (the “occupation income”) is treated as the highest part of the individual's total income.
(7)But if in the tax year—
(a)more than one capital amount is treated as the individual's occupation income, or
(b)the individual is also treated as having income as a result of Chapter 3 (transactions in land),
only a just and reasonable proportion of each capital amount treated as occupation income is to be treated as the highest part of the individual's total income.
(8)See section 1012 for the relationship between—
(a)the rules in subsections (6) and (7), and
(b)other rules requiring particular income to be treated as the highest part of a person's total income.
(1)For the purposes of section 786(3), an officer of Revenue and Customs must, if requested to do so, produce a certificate specifying—
(a)the amount of income in respect of which tax has been paid, and
(b)the amount of tax paid.
(2)The certificate is conclusive evidence of any facts stated in it.
