809JSection 809I: order of remittances
(1)If section 809I applies, the following steps are to be taken for the purpose of determining the income or gains treated in a tax year (“the relevant tax year”) as remitted to the United Kingdom by the individual.
Step 1
Find the total amount of—
(a)the individual's nominated income and gains, and
(b)the individual's remittance basis income and gains,
that have been remitted to the United Kingdom in the relevant tax year.
This amount is “the relevant amount”.
Step 2
Find the amount of foreign income and gains of the individual for the relevant tax year (other than income or chargeable gains nominated under section 809C) that is within each of the categories of income and gains in paragraphs (a) to (h) of subsection (2).
If none of sections 809B, 809D and 809E apply to the individual for that year, treat those amounts as nil (and accordingly go to step 6).
Step 3
Find the earliest paragraph for which the amount determined under step 2 is not nil.
If that amount does not exceed the relevant amount, treat the individual as having remitted the income or gains within that paragraph (and for that tax year).
Otherwise, treat the individual as having remitted the relevant proportion of each kind of income or gains within that paragraph (and for that tax year).
“The relevant proportion” is the relevant amount divided by the amount determined under step 2 for that paragraph.
Step 4
Reduce the relevant amount by the amount taken into account under step 3.
Step 5
If the relevant amount (as reduced under step 4) is not nil, start again at step 3.
In step 3, read the reference to the earliest paragraph of the kind mentioned there as a reference to the earliest such paragraph which has not previously been taken into account under that step.
Step 6
If the relevant amount (as reduced) is not nil once steps 3 to 5 have been undertaken in relation to all paragraphs of subsection (2) for which the amount determined under step 2 is not nil, start again at step 2.
In step 2, read the reference to the foreign income and gains of the individual for the relevant tax year as a reference to such of the foreign income and gains of the individual for the appropriate tax year as had not been remitted by the beginning of the relevant tax year.
“The appropriate tax year” is the latest tax year which is—
(a)before the last tax year for which step 2 has been undertaken, and
(b)a tax year for which section 809B, 809D or 809E applies to the individual.
(2)The kinds of income and gains are—
(a)relevant foreign earnings (other than those subject to a foreign tax),
(b)foreign specific employment income (other than income subject to a foreign tax),
(c)relevant foreign income (other than income subject to a foreign tax),
(d)foreign chargeable gains (other than gains subject to a foreign tax),
(e)relevant foreign earnings subject to a foreign tax,
(f)foreign specific employment income subject to a foreign tax,
(g)relevant foreign income subject to a foreign tax, and
(h)foreign chargeable gains subject to a foreign tax.
(3)In this section the individual's “nominated income and gains” are the total income and chargeable gains nominated by the individual under section 809C for the relevant tax year or any earlier tax year.
(4)In step 1 of subsection (1) the individual's “remittance basis income and gains” are the foreign income and gains of the individual for all the tax years (up to and including the relevant tax year) for which section 809B, 809D or 809E applies to the individual, apart from the individual's nominated income and gains.
(5)In step 6 of subsection (1) the reference to income or gains being remitted is—
(a)as respects any tax year before section 809I applies, to income or gains being remitted to the United Kingdom, and
(b)as respects any tax year in relation to which that section applies, to income or gains treated under this section as so remitted.
(6)In subsection (2) “foreign tax” means any tax chargeable under the law of a territory outside the United Kingdom.

Remittance of income and gains: transfers from mixed fundsU.K.
809QSections 809L and 809P: transfers from mixed funds
(1)This section applies for the purposes mentioned in subsection (2) where condition A in section 809L is met and—
(a)the property or consideration for the service is (wholly or in part), or derives (wholly or in part, and directly or indirectly) from, a transfer from a mixed fund, or
(b)a transfer from a mixed fund, or anything deriving (wholly or in part, and directly or indirectly) from such a transfer, is used as mentioned in section 809L(3)(c).
(2)The purposes referred to in subsection (1) are—
(a)determining whether condition B in section 809L is met, and
(b)if it is met, determining (under section 809P) the amount of income or chargeable gains remitted.
(3)The extent to which the transfer is of the individual's income or chargeable gains is to be determined as follows.
Step 1
For each of the categories of income and capital in paragraphs (a) to (i) of subsection (4), find (applying section 809R) the amount of income or capital of the individual for the relevant tax year in the mixed fund immediately before the transfer.
“The relevant tax year” is the tax year in which the transfer occurs.
Step 2
Find the earliest paragraph for which the amount determined under step 1 is not nil.
If that amount does not exceed the amount of the transfer, treat the transfer as containing the income or capital within that paragraph (and for that tax year).
Otherwise, treat the transfer as containing the relevant proportion of each kind of income or capital within that paragraph (and for that tax year).
“The relevant proportion” is the amount of the transfer divided by the amount determined under step 1 for that paragraph.
Step 3
Treat the amount of the transfer as reduced by the amount taken into account under step 2.
Step 4
If the amount of the transfer (as reduced under step 3) is not nil, start again at step 2.
In step 2, read the reference to the earliest paragraph of the kind mentioned there as a reference to the earliest such paragraph which has not previously been taken into account under that step in relation to the transfer.
Step 5
If the amount of the transfer (as reduced under step 3) is not nil once steps 2 and 3 have been undertaken in relation to all paragraphs of subsection (4) for which the amount determined under step 1 is not nil, start again at step 1.
In step 1, read the reference to the relevant tax year as a reference to the tax year immediately before the last tax year for which step 1 has been undertaken in relation to the transfer.
(4)The kinds of income and capital are—
(a)employment income (other than income within paragraph (b), (c) or (f)),
(b)relevant foreign earnings (other than income within paragraph (f)),
(c)foreign specific employment income (other than income within paragraph (f)),
(d)relevant foreign income (other than income within paragraph (g)),
(e)foreign chargeable gains (other than chargeable gains within paragraph (h)),
(f)employment income subject to a foreign tax,
(g)relevant foreign income subject to a foreign tax,
(h)foreign chargeable gains subject to a foreign tax, and
(i)income or capital not within another paragraph of this subsection.
(5)In subsection (4) “foreign tax” means any tax chargeable under the law of a territory outside the United Kingdom.
(6)In this section “mixed fund” means money or other property which, immediately before the transfer, contains or derives from—
(a)more than one of the kinds of income and capital mentioned in subsection (4), or
(b)income or capital for more than one tax year.
(7)References in this section to the amount of the transfer include the market value of it.
(8)References in this section and section 809R to anything deriving from income or capital within paragraph (i) of subsection (4) do not include—
(a)income or gains within any of paragraphs (a) to (h) of that subsection, or
(b)anything deriving from such income or gains.
809RSection 809Q: composition of mixed fund
(1)This section applies for the purposes of step 1 of section 809Q(3) (composition of mixed fund).

(a)any capital payment received before 10 March 1981, or

117U.K.In the application of section 87 of TCGA 1992 for a tax year by virtue of section 88, no account is to be taken of any capital payment received before 6 April 1991.

(2)The following steps are to be taken for the purposes of calculating the section 2(2) amount for the settlement for the tax year 2007-08 and earlier tax years.
Step 1
Calculate (in accordance with section 87 and, where appropriate, section 88) the section 2(2) amount for the settlement for the tax year 2007-08 and earlier tax years.
For this purpose, references in section 87(4) and (5) of TCGA 1992 (as substituted) to section 87 of that Act applying to a settlement for a tax year are to be read as references to section 87 of that Act (as it had effect before that substitution) applying to a settlement for a tax year.
Step 2
Find the total amount of chargeable gains treated under section 87 or 89(2) as accruing to beneficiaries of the settlement in the tax year 2007-08 or any earlier tax year (“the total deemed gains”).
Step 3
Find the earliest tax year for which the section 2(2) amount is not nil.
If the section 2(2) amount for that year is less than or equal to the total deemed gains, reduce that section 2(2) amount to nil.
Otherwise, reduce that section 2(2) amount by the amount of the total deemed gains.
Step 4
Reduce the total deemed gains by the amount by which the section 2(2) amount was reduced under Step 3.
Step 5
If the total deemed gains is not nil, start again at Step 3.
For this purpose, read references to the earliest tax year for which the section 2(2) amount is not nil as references to the earliest tax year—
(a)which is after the last tax year for which Steps 3 and 4 have been undertaken, and
(b)for which the section 2(2) amount is not nil.
(3)If, before 6 April 2008, the trustees of the settlement made a transfer of value to which Schedule 4B to TCGA 1992 applied, sub-paragraph (2) has effect subject to such modifications as are just and reasonable on account of Schedule 4C to that Act having applied in relation to the settlement.
(4)This paragraph does not apply if section 90 of TCGA 1992 applied to a transfer of settled property by or to the trustees of the settlement that was made before 6 April 2008 (see paragraph 121).
121(1)If section 90 of TCGA 1992 (as originally enacted) applied to a transfer of settled property made before 6 April 2008, this paragraph applies in relation to the transferor settlement and the transferee settlement.U.K.
(2)In this paragraph “the year of transfer” means the tax year in which the transfer occurred.
(3)The following steps are to be taken for the purpose of calculating the section 2(2) amount for the transferor and transferee settlements for the tax year 2007-08 and earlier tax years.
Step 1
Take the steps in paragraph 120(2) for the purpose of calculating the section 2(2) amount (at the end of the year of transfer) for the transferor settlement for the year of transfer and earlier tax years.
For this purpose, read references there to the tax year 2007-08 as references to the year of transfer.
Step 2
Take the steps in paragraph 120(2) for the purpose of calculating the section 2(2) amount (before the year of transfer) for the transferee settlement for the tax year before the year of transfer and earlier tax years.
For this purpose, read references there to the tax year 2007-08 as references to the tax year before the year of transfer.
Step 3
Calculate the section 2(2) amount for the transferee settlement for the year of transfer.
Step 4
Treat the section 2(2) amount for the transferee settlement for the year of transfer or any earlier tax year (as calculated under Step 2 or 3) as increased by—
(a)the section 2(2) amount for the transferor settlement for that year (as calculated under Step 1), or
(b)if part only of the settled property was transferred, the relevant proportion of the amount mentioned in paragraph (a).
“The relevant proportion” here has the same meaning as in section 90(4) of TCGA 1992 (as substituted by this Schedule).
Step 5
Treat the section 2(2) amount for the transferor settlement for any tax year as reduced by the amount by which the section 2(2) amount for the transferee settlement for that year is increased under Step 4.
Step 6
Take the steps in paragraph 120(2) for the purpose of calculating the section 2(2) amount for the transferor settlement for the tax year 2007-08 and earlier tax years.
For this purpose—
(a)treat the section 2(2) amount for the year of transfer or any earlier tax year as the amount calculated by taking Steps 1 and 5 above, and
(b)reduce the total deemed gains by the amount of the total deemed gains calculated by taking Step 1 above.
Step 7
Take the steps in paragraph 120(2) for the purpose of calculating the section 2(2) amount for the transferee settlement for the tax year 2007-08 and earlier tax years.
For this purpose—
(a)treat the section 2(2) amount for the year of transfer or any earlier tax year as the amount calculated by taking Steps 2 to 4 above, and
(b)reduce the total deemed gains by the amount of the total deemed gains calculated by taking Step 2 above.
(4)This paragraph applies with any necessary modifications in relation to a settlement as respects which more than one relevant transfer was made.
(5)In sub-paragraph (4) “relevant transfer” means a transfer—
(a)made before 6 April 2008, and
(b)to which section 90 of TCGA 1992 applied.
(6)If, before 6 April 2008, the trustees of the transferor or transferee settlement made a transfer of value to which Schedule 4B to TCGA 1992 applied, this paragraph has effect subject to such modifications as are just and reasonable on account of Schedule 4C to that Act having applied in relation to the settlement.
122(1)If all of a capital payment would (in the tax year 2008-09) have been left out of account by virtue of section 87(6) of TCGA 1992 as originally enacted, the amount of that capital payment is reduced to nil.U.K.
(2)If part of a capital payment would (in the tax year 2008-09) have been left out of account by virtue of section 87(6) of TCGA 1992 as originally enacted, the amount of that capital payment is reduced by the amount of that part.
(3)If—
(a)chargeable gains were treated under section 87 or 89(2) of, or paragraph 8 of Schedule 4C to, TCGA 1992 as accruing in the tax year 2007-08 or any earlier tax year to a beneficiary,
(b)more than one capital payment that the beneficiary had received was taken into account for the purposes of determining the amount of chargeable gains treated as accruing to the beneficiary, and
(c)the amount of those chargeable gains was less than the total amount of capital payments taken into account,
for the purposes of this paragraph treat section 87(6) of TCGA 1992 as originally enacted as having effect in relation to earlier capital payments before later ones.
(4)References in this paragraph to section 87(6) of TCGA 1992 include that provision as it would (but for the amendments made by this Schedule) have applied by virtue of section 762(3) of ICTA (offshore income gains).
(5)References in this paragraph to chargeable gains include offshore income gains.
123U.K.Section 89(2) of TCGA 1992 as substituted applies to a settlement for the tax year 2008-09 (and subsequent tax years) if section 89(2) of that Act as originally enacted would (but for the amendments made by this Schedule) have applied to the settlement for the tax year 2008-09.
124(1)This paragraph applies if—U.K.

(b)the individual is resident or ordinarily resident, but not domiciled, in the United Kingdom in the relevant tax year.

(b)the trustees transfer all or part of the settled property to the trustees of another settlement, and section 90 of TCGA 1992 applies in relation to the transfer.
(3)For a tax year as respects which the settlement has a Schedule 4C pool, the reference in sub-paragraph (2)(a) above to a capital payment received (or treated as received) by a beneficiary of the settlement is to be read as a capital payment received (or treated as received) by a beneficiary of a relevant settlement from the trustees of a relevant settlement.
(4)Paragraph 8A of that Schedule (relevant settlements) applies for the purposes of sub-paragraph (3) above.
(5)An election under sub-paragraph (1) is irrevocable.

B is the section 2(2) amount for the settlement for the relevant tax year.
(10)For the purposes of sub-paragraph (9) an asset is a “relevant asset” if—
(a)by reason of the asset, a chargeable gain or allowable loss accrues to the trustees in the relevant tax year, and
