3427.This amendment provides a stand alone definition of “investment company” in place of the definition by cross–reference to and modification of the definition in section 130 of ICTA. References to savings banks and banks for savings are omitted. The amended definition is the same as that in section 90(1) of this Act. See Change 21in Annex 1.
3428.These provisions amend sections 346, 348(7), 356, 361, 363, 365, 368, 369 and 373 of ITA to conform those provisions to the corresponding provisions of this Act (see the commentary on sections 227, 229, 238, 244, 246, 248, 251, 252 and 260).
3429.Section 219(1)(a) of this Act provides that accreditation under the powers in Chapter 2 of Part 7 of ITA has effect for the purposes of Part 7 of this Act. The new subsections introduced by these amendments complete the picture by clarifying in ITA that the powers in Chapter 2 of Part 7 of that Act can be exercised for corporation tax purposes as well as income tax purposes. They make explicit something that is already implicit.
3430.This minor textual amendment corrects a typographical error in the description of section 364(1) of that Act.
3431.This minor textual amendment removes words from section 364(1)(d) of ITA which are unnecessary and have, accordingly, not been included in the corresponding section 247(1)(d) of this Act.
3432.These amendments amend sections 809ZA and 809ZC and replace section 809ZB with new sections 809ZE and 809ZF. The effect of these amendments is to conform the structure of Chapter 6 of Part 13 of ITA with that of Chapter 2 of Part 20 of this Act. That Chapter of this Act is based on sections 785B to 785E of ICTA which correspond for corporation tax purposes to sections 809ZA to 809ZD of ITA.
3433.This provision amends the definition of “bank” to bring the income tax and corporation tax rewrite of the source legislation into line. See Change 65 in Annex 1.
3434.This provision amends the definition of “local authority”, in relation to Northern Ireland, to bring the income tax and corporation tax rewrite of the source legislation into line. See Change 60 in Annex 1.
3435.This provision amends the definition of “local authority association” to bring the income tax and corporation tax rewrite of the source legislation into line.
3436.New paragraph 57A inserted in Schedule 2 to ITA clarifies the application of the transitional provisions in Part 6 of that Schedule (losses on disposal of shares) in cases where bonus shares have been issued. It ensures that the provisions in the form that they apply to the original shares also apply in the same form to the corresponding bonus shares whenever issued. Part 5 of Schedule 2 to this Act (losses on disposals of shares) contains a paragraph in the same terms. See Change 20 in Annex 1.
