(a) authorise the extraction, and

(b) are held by that person.

(4) Activities of a person in transporting, or causing to be transported for that person, oil extracted at any such place not on dry land under rights which—

(a) authorise the extraction, and

(b) are held by that person,

if the transportation meets condition A or B (see subsections (6) and (7)).

(5) Activities of a person in effecting, or causing to be effected for that person, the initial treatment or initial storage of oil won from any oil field under rights which—

(8) The definition of “initial storage” in section 12(1) of OTA 1975 applies for the purposes of this section.

(9) But in its application for those purposes in relation to the person mentioned in subsection (5) and to oil won from any one oil field, that definition is to have effect as if the reference to the maximum daily production rate of oil for the field mentioned in that definition were to a share of that maximum daily production rate proportionate to that person's share of the oil won from that field.

(1) This section applies if conditions A and B are met.

(2) Condition A is that a person has incurred expenditure (by way of purchase, rent or otherwise) on the acquisition of an asset in a transaction to which paragraph 2 of Schedule 4 to OTA 1975 applies (transactions between connected persons or otherwise than at arm's length).

(6) In this section “regional development grant” means a grant falling within section 534(1) of CAA 2001 (Northern Ireland regional development grant).

225L Adjustment as a result of regional development grant

(1) This section applies if conditions A, B and C are met.

(2) Condition A is that expenditure incurred by a person in relation to an asset in a tax year (“the initial period”) has been or is to be met by a regional development grant.

(3) Condition B is that, despite the provisions of section 534(2) and (3) of CAA 2001 (Northern Ireland regional development grants) and section 225K of this Act, in determining that person's liability to income tax for the initial period, the whole or some part of that expenditure falls to be taken into account under Part 2 or 6 of CAA 2001.

(4) Condition C is that—

(a) expenditure on the asset becomes allowable under section 3 or 4 of OTA 1975 in a tax year (an “adjustment period”) subsequent to the initial period, or

(b) the proportion of any such expenditure which is allowable in an adjustment period is different as compared with the initial period.

(5) There is to be redetermined for the purposes of subsections (7) and (8) the amount of the expenditure mentioned in subsection (2) which would have been taken into account as mentioned in subsection (3) if the circumstances mentioned in subsection (4) had existed in the initial period.

(6) According to whether the amount as so redetermined is greater or less than the amount actually taken into account as mentioned in subsection (3), the difference is referred to in subsections (7) and (8) as the increase or the reduction in the allowance.

(7) If there is an increase in the allowance, an amount of capital expenditure equal to the increase is to be treated, for the purposes of Part 2 or 6 of CAA 2001, as having been incurred by the person concerned in the adjustment period on an extension of, or addition to, the asset mentioned in subsection (2).

(8) If there is a reduction in the allowance, the person concerned is to be treated, for the purpose of determining that person's liability to income tax, as having received in the adjustment period, as income of the trade in connection with which the expenditure mentioned in subsection (2) was incurred, a sum equal to the amount of the reduction in the allowance.

(4) Condition C is that the sum would not, but for subsection (5), be treated as mentioned in that subsection.

(5) The sum is to be treated as a receipt of the separate trade mentioned in section 16(1) (oil extraction and related activities).

(6) So far as they would not otherwise be so treated, the activities—

(a) of a participator in an oil field, or

(b) of a person connected with the participator,

in making available an asset in a way which gives rise to tariff receipts or tax-exempt tariffing receipts of the participator are to be treated for the purposes of this Chapter as oil extraction activities.

(7) In determining for the purposes of subsection (2) whether a sum constitutes a tariff receipt or tax-exempt tariffing receipt of a person who is a participator, no account may be taken of any sum which—

(a) is in fact received or receivable by a person connected with the participator, and

(b) constitutes a tariff receipt or tax-exempt tariffing receipt of the participator.

But in relation to the person by whom such a sum is actually received, subsection (2) has effect as if the person were a participator and as if condition A were met.

(8) References in this section to a person connected with a participator include a person with whom the person is associated, within the meaning of paragraph 11 of Schedule 2 to the Oil Taxation Act 1983, but section 878(5) of this Act (application of definition of “connected” persons) does not apply for the purposes of this section.

(9) In this section—

• “tax-exempt tariffing receipt” has the meaning given by section 6A(2) of the Oil Taxation Act 1983, and

• “tariff receipt” has the same meaning as in that Act.

Abandonment guarantees U.K.

225N Expenditure on and under abandonment guarantees

(1) Subsection (2) applies if, as a result of section 3(1)(hh) of OTA 1975 (obtaining abandonment guarantee), expenditure incurred by a participator in an oil field is allowable (in whole or in part) for petroleum revenue tax purposes under section 3 of that Act.

(2) So far as that expenditure is so allowable, it is to be allowed as a deduction in calculating the participator's ring fence income.

(3) Subsection (4) applies if a payment is made by the guarantor under an abandonment guarantee.

(4) So far as any expenditure for which the relevant participator is liable is met, directly or indirectly, out of the payment, the expenditure is not to be regarded for income tax purposes as having been incurred by the relevant participator or any other participator in the oil field concerned.

(5) See also section 225P (payment under abandonment guarantee not immediately applied).

(6) In this Chapter—

• “abandonment guarantee” has the same meaning as it has for the purposes of section 105 of FA 1991 (see section 104 of that Act), and

• “the guarantor” and “the relevant participator” have the same meaning as in section 104 of that Act.

225O Relief for reimbursement expenditure under abandonment guarantees

(1) This section applies if—

(a) a payment (“the guarantee payment”) is made by the guarantor under an abandonment guarantee,

(b) as a result of the making of the guarantee payment, the relevant participator becomes liable under the terms of the abandonment guarantee to pay any sum to the guarantor, and

(c) expenditure is incurred, or consideration in money's worth is given, by the relevant participator in or towards meeting that liability.

(2) In this section “reimbursement expenditure” means expenditure incurred as mentioned in subsection (1)(c) or consideration (or the value of consideration) given as so mentioned; and any reference to the incurring of reimbursement expenditure is to be read accordingly.

(3) So much of any reimbursement expenditure as constitutes qualifying expenditure (see subsection (4)) is to be allowed as a deduction in calculating the relevant participator's ring fence income; and no part of the expenditure which is so allowed is to be otherwise deductible or allowable by way of relief for income tax purposes.

(4) The amount of reimbursement expenditure incurred in any tax year by the relevant participator which constitutes qualifying expenditure is determined by the formula—

where—

A is the reimbursement expenditure incurred in the tax year,

B is so much of the expenditure represented by the guarantee payment as, had it been incurred by the relevant participator, would have been taken into account (by way of capital allowance or a deduction) in calculating the relevant participator's ring fence income, and

C is the total of the sums which, at or before the end of the tax year, the relevant participator is or has become liable to pay to the guarantor as mentioned in subsection (1)(b).

But this is subject to subsection (5).

(5) In relation to the guarantee payment, the total of the reimbursement expenditure (whenever incurred) which constitutes qualifying expenditure may not exceed whichever is the less of B and C in subsection (4).

(6) Any limitation on qualifying expenditure under subsection (5) is to be applied to the expenditure of a later tax year in preference to an earlier one.

(7) For the purposes of this section, the expenditure represented by the guarantee payment is any expenditure—

(a) for which the relevant participator is liable, and

(b) which is met, directly or indirectly, out of the guarantee payment (and which, accordingly, because of section 225N(4) is not to be regarded as expenditure incurred by the relevant participator).

(8) See also—

(a) section 225P (payment under abandonment guarantee not immediately applied), and

(b) section 225Q which excludes amounts from subsection (1).

225P Payment under abandonment guarantee not immediately applied

(1) This section applies if—

(a) a payment made by the guarantor under an abandonment guarantee is not immediately applied in meeting any expenditure,

(b) the payment is for any period invested (either specifically or together with payments made by persons other than the guarantor) so as to be represented by, or by part of, the assets of a fund or account, and

(c) at a subsequent time, any expenditure for which the relevant participator is liable is met out of the assets of the fund or account.

(2) The references in sections 225N(4) and 225O(7) to expenditure which is met, directly or indirectly, out of the payment are to be read as references to so much of the expenditure for which the relevant participator is liable as is met out of those assets of the fund or account which, at the subsequent time mentioned in subsection (1)(c), it is just and reasonable to attribute to the payment.

225Q Amounts excluded from section 225O(1)

(1) This section applies if—

(a) the whole of the guarantee payment mentioned in section 225O, or of the assets which under section 225P are attributed to the guarantee payment, is not applied in meeting liabilities of the relevant participator so mentioned which fall within section 104(1)(a) and (b) of FA 1991, and

(b) a sum representing the unapplied part of the guarantee payment or of those assets is repaid, directly or indirectly, to the guarantor so mentioned.

(2) Any liability of the relevant participator to repay that sum is to be excluded in determining the total liability of the relevant participator which falls within section 225O(1)(b).

(3) The repayment to the guarantor of that sum is not to be regarded as expenditure incurred by the relevant participator as mentioned in section 225O(1)(c).

Abandonment expenditure U.K.

225R Introduction to sections 225S and 225T

(1) Sections 225S and 225T apply if—

(a) paragraph 2A of Schedule 5 to OTA 1975 applies, or would apply if a claim under paragraph 2A(2) of that Schedule were made, and

(b) the default payment falls (in whole or part) to be attributed to the contributing participator under paragraph 2A(2) of that Schedule.

(2) In section 225S “the additional abandonment expenditure” means the amount which is attributed to the contributing participator as mentioned in subsection (1)(b) (whether representing the whole or only part of the default payment).

(3) In this Chapter “default payment”, “the defaulter” and “contributing participator” have the same meaning as in paragraph 2A of Schedule 5 to OTA 1975.

225S Relief for expenditure incurred by a participator in meeting defaulter's abandonment expenditure

(1) Relief by way of capital allowance, or a deduction in calculating ring fence income, is to be available to the contributing participator in respect of the additional abandonment expenditure if any such relief or deduction would have been available to the defaulter if—

(a) the defaulter had incurred the additional abandonment expenditure, and

(b) at the time that that expenditure was incurred the defaulter continued to carry on a ring fence trade.

(2) The basis of qualification for or entitlement to any relief or deduction which is available to the contributing participator under this section is to be determined on the assumption that the conditions in subsection (1)(a) and (b) are met.

(3) But, subject to subsection (2), any such relief or deduction is to be available in the same way as if the additional abandonment expenditure had been incurred by the contributing participator for the purposes of the ring fence trade carried on by the contributing participator.

225T Reimbursement by defaulter in respect of certain abandonment expenditure

(1) This section applies if expenditure is incurred, or consideration in money's worth is given, by the defaulter in reimbursing the contributing participator in respect of, or otherwise making good to the contributing participator, the whole or any part of the default payment.

(2) In this section “reimbursement expenditure” means expenditure incurred as mentioned in subsection (1) or consideration (or the value of consideration) given as so mentioned; and any reference to the incurring of reimbursement expenditure is to be read accordingly.

(3) Reimbursement expenditure is to be allowed as a deduction in calculating the defaulter's ring fence income (but this is subject to subsection (6)).

(4) Reimbursement expenditure received by the contributing participator is to be treated as a receipt (in the nature of income) of the participator's ring fence trade for the relevant tax year (but this is subject to subsection (6)).

(5) Any additional assessment to income tax required in order to take account of the receipt of reimbursement expenditure by the contributing participator may be made at any time not later than 4 years after the end of the calendar year in which the reimbursement expenditure is so received.

(6) In relation to a particular default payment, reimbursement expenditure incurred at any time—

(a) is to be allowed as mentioned in subsection (3), and

(b) is to be taken into account as a result of subsection (4) in calculating the contributing participator's ring fence income,

only so far as, when aggregated with any reimbursement expenditure previously incurred in respect of that default payment, it does not exceed so much of the default payment as falls to be attributed to the contributing participator as mentioned in section 225R(1)(b).

(7) The incurring of reimbursement expenditure is not to be regarded, by virtue of section 532 of CAA 2001 (the general rule excluding contributions), as the meeting of the expenditure of the contributing participator in making the default payment.

(8) In subsection (4) “the relevant tax year” means—

(a) the tax year in which the reimbursement expenditure is received by the contributing participator, or

(b) if the contributing participator's ring fence trade is permanently discontinued before the receipt of the reimbursement expenditure, the last tax year in which that trade was carried on.

Interest on repayment of APRT U.K.

225U Interest on repayment of APRT

(1) Subsection (2) applies if interest is paid to a participator under paragraph 10(4) of Schedule 19 to FA 1982 (interest on advance petroleum revenue tax which becomes repayable).

(2) The interest paid is to be disregarded in calculating the participator's income for income tax purposes.”

“Chapter 2 U.K. Finance leases with return in capital form

Introduction U.K.

614B Arrangements to which this Chapter applies

(1) This Chapter applies to arrangements involving the lease of an asset that meet conditions A and B.

(2) Condition A is that in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice the arrangements fall to be treated as a finance lease or loan.

(a) is or may be in the form of a sum that is not rent, and

(b) would not, apart from this Part and Part 21 of CTA 2010, be wholly brought into account for tax purposes as rent from the lease of the asset.

(a) when the arrangements are or have been entered into, or

(b) whether they are or have been entered into by companies or other persons.

614BA Purposes of this Chapter

(1) This section sets out the main purposes of this Chapter where there are any arrangements to which this Chapter applies.

(2) The first main purpose is to charge any person entitled to the lessor's interest under the lease of the asset to income tax on amounts of income determined as mentioned in subsections (3) and (4).

(3) The amounts referred to in subsection (2) are determined by reference to the amounts that fall for accounting purposes to be treated, in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice, as the income return on and after 26 November 1996 on investment in respect of the finance lease or loan.

(4) The amounts referred to in subsection (2) are also determined taking into account the substance of the matter as a whole, including, in particular, the state of affairs—

(a) as between connected persons, or

(b) within a group of companies,

as reflected or falling to be reflected in accounts of any of those persons or in consolidated group accounts.

(5) The second main purpose of this Chapter is, if the sum mentioned in section 614B(3)(a) that is not rent falls due, to recover by reference to that sum the whole or any part of the capital expenditure reliefs.

(6) In subsection (5) “the capital expenditure reliefs” means any reliefs, allowances or deductions that are or have been allowed or made in respect of capital expenditure incurred in respect of the leased asset.

(b) the conditions in section 614BC are or have been met in relation to the lease at some time in a period of account of the current lessor.

(2) But this Chapter does not apply so far as, in relation to the current lessor, the lease falls to be regarded as a long funding lease for the purposes of Part 2 of CAA 2001 (plant and machinery allowances) in accordance with Chapter 6A of that Part (interpretation of provisions about long funding leases) (see section 70G of that Act).

(3) If the conditions in section 614BC have been met at some time in a period of account of the person who was at that time the lessor, they are taken to continue to be met for the purposes of this Chapter unless and until one of the conditions in subsection (4) is met.

(4) The conditions are that—

(a) the asset ceases to be leased under the lease, or

(b) the lessor's interest under the lease is assigned to a person who is not connected with any of the persons specified in subsection (5).

(c) any person who at some time after the assignment becomes the lessor pursuant to arrangements made by a person who was the lessor, or was connected with the lessor, at some time before the assignment.

(6) If at any time the person who was the lessor at that time was a person within the charge to corporation tax on income, the reference in subsection (3) to the conditions in section 614BC having been met at that time includes a reference to the conditions in section 902 of CTA 2010 having been so met.

(7) Nothing in subsection (3) prevents this Chapter from applying again in relation to the lease where the lessor's interest is assigned if the conditions for its application are met after the assignment.

(4) This subsection applies if the finance lease or loan falls for accounting purposes to be treated, in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice, as subsisting for the purposes of consolidated group accounts of a group of companies of which L is a member.

(5) Condition B is that, under the leasing arrangements, there is or may be payable to L, or to a person connected with L, a sum (a “major lump sum”) that is not rent but falls for accounting purposes to be treated, in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice—

(b) as to part, as a return on investment in respect of a finance lease or loan.

(6) Condition C is that not all of that part of the sum that falls within subsection (5)(b) would, apart from this Chapter, fall to be brought into account for income tax purposes in tax years ending with the relevant tax year as the normal rent from the lease for periods of account of L.

(7) Condition D is that, in relation to L at the relevant time—

(a) the period of account of L in which the relevant time falls, or

(b) an earlier period of account of L during which L was the lessor,

is a period of account for which the accountancy rental earnings in respect of the lease exceed the normal rent for the period.

(8) Condition E is that at the relevant time—

(a) arrangements within section 614BE(1) exist, or

(b) paragraph (a) does not apply and circumstances within section 614BE(3) exist.

(4) Rent that falls to be brought into account for income tax purposes as it falls due is treated—

(a) as accruing evenly throughout the period to which, in accordance with the terms of the lease, each payment falling due relates, and

(b) as falling due as it so accrues.

(5) This subsection applies if any such payment as is mentioned in subsection (4)(a) falls due more than 12 months after the time at which any of the rent to which that payment relates is treated as accruing under subsection (4)(a).

(a) that the events described in subsection (4) will occur, than

(b) that the event described in subsection (5) will occur.

(4) The events mentioned in subsection (3)(a) are—

(a) that the lessee or a person connected with the lessee will acquire, whether directly or indirectly, the leased asset or an asset representing the leased asset from the lessor or a person connected with the lessor, and

(b) that, in connection with that acquisition, the lessor or a person connected with the lessor will receive, whether directly or indirectly, a qualifying lump sum from the lessee or a person connected with the lessee.

(5) The event mentioned in subsection (3)(b) is that, before any such acquisition as is mentioned in subsection (4) takes place, the leased asset or, as the case may be, the asset representing the leased asset, will have been acquired, in a sale on the open market, by an independent third party.

Current lessor taxed by reference to accountancy rental earnings U.K.

614BF Current lessor taxed by reference to accountancy rental earnings

(1) This section applies if, in the case of any period of account of the current lessor (“L”)—

(a) this Chapter applies in relation to the lease, and

(b) the accountancy rental earnings in respect of the lease for that period of account exceed the normal rent for that period.

(2) For income tax purposes, L is treated as if in that period of account L had been entitled to, and there had arisen to L, rent from the lease of an amount equal to those accountancy rental earnings (instead of the normal rent referred to in subsection (1)(b)).

(3) Such rent from the lease of an asset is treated for income tax purposes—

(a) as if it had accrued at an even rate throughout so much of the period of account as falls within the period for which the asset is leased, and

(b) as if L had become entitled to it as it accrued.

Reduction of taxable rent by cumulative rental excesses U.K.

614BG Reduction of taxable rent by cumulative rental excesses: introduction

(1) This section and sections 614BH to 614BK provide for reductions of the taxable rent of a current lessor (“L”) under a lease to which this Chapter applies.

(2) In this section and sections 614BH to 614BK “taxable rent”, in relation to a period of account of L, means the amount that would, apart from those sections, be treated for income tax purposes as rent from the lease that arises to L in that period of account for the purpose of determining L's liability to tax for the related tax year or years.

(3) The reductions of taxable rent under sections 614BH to 614BK depend on there being—

(a) a cumulative accountancy rental excess for the period of account of L in question, or

(b) a cumulative normal rental excess for the period of account of L in question.

(4) For the meaning of “cumulative accountancy rental excess” and “cumulative normal rental excess”, see sections 614BH and 614BJ respectively.

614BH Meaning of “accountancy rental excess” and “cumulative accountancy rental excess”

(1) For the purposes of this Chapter, there is an “accountancy rental excess” in relation to the lease for a period of account of the current lessor (“L”) if the taxable rent in relation to the lease for the period is as a result of section 614BF (current lessor taxed by reference to accountancy rental earnings) an amount equal to the accountancy rental earnings.

(2) The amount of the accountancy rental excess for the period is equal to the difference between the accountancy rental earnings for the period and the normal rent for the period.

(3) But if the taxable rent for the period is reduced under section 614BK (reduction of taxable rent by the cumulative normal rental excess), there is only an accountancy rental excess for the period if—

(a) the accountancy rental earnings, reduced by an amount equal to the reduction under that section, exceed

(b) the normal rent.

(4) And in that case the amount of the accountancy rental excess for the period is equal to that excess.

(5) In this Chapter the “cumulative accountancy rental excess”, in relation to the lease and a period of account of L, means so much of the total of the accountancy rental excesses for previous periods of account of L (as increased under section 614BM: recovery of bad debts following reduction under section 614BL) as has not been—

(a) set off under section 614BI (reduction of taxable rent by the cumulative accountancy rental excess) against the taxable rent for any such previous period,

(b) reduced under section 614BL (relief for bad debts: reduction of cumulative accountancy rental excess), or

(c) set off under section 37A of TCGA 1992 (consideration on disposal of certain leases) against the consideration for a disposal.

614BI Reduction of taxable rent by the cumulative accountancy rental excess

(1) This section applies if a period of account of the current lessor (“L”) is one for which—

(a) the normal rent in relation to the lease exceeds the accountancy rental earnings, and

(b) there is a cumulative accountancy rental excess.

(2) The taxable rent for the period of account is reduced by setting against it the cumulative accountancy rental excess (but not so as to reduce that rent below the amount of the accountancy rental earnings).

(3) But see section 614BL(3) and (4) (under which the amount of the cumulative accountancy rental excess which may be set against the taxable rent is limited in some circumstances).

614BJ Meaning of “normal rental excess” and “cumulative normal rental excess”

(1) For the purposes of this Chapter, there is a “normal rental excess” in relation to a lease for any period of account of the current lessor (“L”) throughout which the leasing arrangements fall for accounting purposes to be treated, in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice, as a finance lease or loan if—

(a) the normal rent for the period, exceeds

(b) the accountancy rental earnings for the period.

(2) The amount of the normal rental excess for that period is equal to that excess.

(3) But if the taxable rent for the period is reduced under section 614BI (reduction of taxable rent by the cumulative accountancy rental excess), there is only a normal rental excess for the period if—

(a) the normal rent, reduced by an amount equal to the reduction under that section, exceeds

(b) the accountancy rental earnings.

(4) And in that case the amount of the normal rental excess for the period is equal to that excess.

(5) In this Chapter “cumulative normal rental excess”, in relation to the lease and a period of account of L, means so much of the total of the normal rental excesses for previous periods of account of L (as increased under section 614BO: recovery of bad debts following reduction under section 614BN) as has not been—

(a) set off under section 614BK (reduction of taxable rent by the cumulative normal rental excess) against the taxable rent for any such previous period, or

(b) reduced under section 614BN (relief for bad debts: reduction of cumulative normal rental excess).

614BK Reduction of taxable rent by the cumulative normal rental excess

(1) This section applies if a period of account of the current lessor (“L”) is one for which—

(a) the taxable rent in relation to the lease is as a result of section 614BF (current lessor taxed by reference to accountancy rental earnings) an amount equal to the accountancy rental earnings, and

(b) there is a cumulative normal rental excess.

(2) The taxable rent for the period of account is reduced by setting against it the cumulative normal rental excess (but not so as to reduce that rent below the amount of the normal rent).

(3) But see section 614BN(3) and (4) (under which the amount of the cumulative normal rental excess which may be set against the taxable rent is limited in some circumstances).

Relief for bad debts by reduction of cumulative rental excesses U.K.

614BL Relief for bad debts: reduction of cumulative accountancy rental excess

(1) This section applies if in relation to the lease for any period of account of the current lessor—

(a) there is a cumulative accountancy rental excess, and

(b) a bad debt deduction falls to be made in respect of rent from the lease.

(2) If for that period—

(a) the accountancy rental earnings in relation to the lease exceed the normal rent, and

(b) the amount of the bad debt deduction exceeds the amount of the accountancy rental earnings,

the cumulative accountancy rental excess for that period is reduced by the amount of the excess of that deduction over those earnings (but not so as to reduce the amount of that rental excess below nil).

(3) Subsections (4) and (5) apply if for that period the accountancy rental earnings in relation to the lease do not exceed the normal rent.

(4) The amount of the cumulative accountancy rental excess that may be set against the taxable rent for that period under section 614BI(2) (reduction of taxable rent by the cumulative accountancy rental excess) is limited to the amount (if any) by which the normal rent exceeds the bad debt deduction.

(5) If for that period the bad debt deduction exceeds the normal rent, the cumulative accountancy rental excess for that period is reduced by the amount of that excess (but not so as to reduce the amount of that rental excess below nil).

(6) In this section—

• “bad debt deduction”, in relation to a period of account of the lessor, means the total of any sums falling within section 35(1)(a), (b) or (c) of ITTOIA 2005 in respect of amounts in respect of rents from the lease of the asset which are deductible as expenses for that period, and

• “taxable rent” has the meaning given in section 614BG(2).

(c) there is a cumulative accountancy rental excess for that subsequent period.

(2) The cumulative accountancy rental excess for the subsequent period is increased.

(3) If the relevant credit does not exceed the total of the reductions under section 614BL(2) or (5), the increase is by the relevant credit.

(4) Otherwise, the increase is limited to that total.

(5) In this section “bad debt deduction” has the meaning given in section 614BL(6).

614BN Relief for bad debts: reduction of cumulative normal rental excess

(1) This section applies if in relation to the lease for any period of account of the current lessor—

(a) there is a cumulative normal rental excess, and

(2) If for that period—

(a) the accountancy rental earnings in the case of the lease do not exceed the normal rent, and

(b) the amount of the bad debt deduction exceeds the amount of that rent,

the cumulative normal rental excess for that period is reduced by the amount of the excess of that deduction over that rent (but not so as to reduce the amount of that rental excess below nil).

(3) Subsections (4) and (5) apply if for that period the accountancy rental earnings in relation to the lease exceed the normal rent.

(4) The amount of the cumulative normal rental excess that may be set against the taxable rent for that period under section 614BK (reduction of taxable rent by the cumulative normal rental excess) is limited to the amount (if any) by which the accountancy rental earnings exceed the bad debt deduction.

(5) If for that period the bad debt deduction exceeds the accountancy rental earnings, the cumulative normal rental excess for that period is reduced by the amount of the excess (but not so as to reduce the amount of that rental excess below nil).

(6) In this section, in relation to a period of account of the lessor—

• “bad debt deduction” has the meaning given in section 614BL(6), and

• “taxable rent” has the meaning given in section 614BG(2).

614BO Recovery of bad debts following reduction under section 614BN

(a) the lessor's interest under the lease,

(b) the leased asset, or

(c) an asset representing the leased asset (see section 614DD).

(3) If—

(a) two or more disposals within subsection (1) are made at the same time, and

(b) there is any cumulative accountancy rental excess for any period of account of L in which the disposal occurs,

subsection (2) has effect in relation to those disposals as if they together constituted a single disposal.

(4) In this section “dispose” and “disposal” are to be read in accordance with TCGA 1992.

(5) In cases where there is any cumulative accountancy rental excess for L's period of account in which the disposal occurs, section 37A of that Act (consideration on disposal of certain leases) makes provision for the purposes of that Act about the reduction of the consideration for the disposal by that excess in determining if a gain has accrued.

(1) This section applies if—

(a) the current lessor (“L”) assigns the lessor's interest under the lease, and

(b) the assignment is a disposal on which, as a result of any of the no gain/no loss provisions, neither a gain nor a loss accrues.

(2) This Part has effect as if—

(a) a period of account of L (“L's period”) ended with the assignment, and

(b) a period of account of the assignee (“A's period”) began with the assignment.

(3) Any cumulative accountancy rental excess for L's period becomes the cumulative accountancy rental excess for A's period.

(4) Any cumulative normal rental excess for L's period becomes the cumulative normal rental excess for A's period.

(5) If the assignee is a company subject to the charge to corporation tax on income, so far as this section relates to the assignee, it applies for the purposes of Part 21 of CTA 2010 as it would otherwise apply for the purposes of this Part.

(6) In this section “the no gain/no loss provisions” has the same meaning as in TCGA 1992 (see section 288(3A) of that Act).

(5) The limiting provision has effect (so far as it would not otherwise do so), in relation to the relevant disposal value and any simultaneous or later disposal value, as if—

(a) it did not limit any particular disposal value, but

(b) it limited the total amount of all the disposal values brought into account for the purposes of the relevant Part by L in respect of the leased asset.

(6) In subsection (5) “simultaneous or later disposal value” means any disposal value which falls to be brought into account by L in respect of the leased asset as a result of any event occurring at the same time as, or later than, the relevant event.

614BT Cases where expenditure taken into account under other provisions of CAA 2001

(1) This section applies if any allowance is or has been given in respect of capital expenditure incurred by the current lessor (“L”) in respect of the leased asset under any provision of CAA 2001 other than—

(a) a period of account (“period 1”) of the current lessor (“L”) ended immediately before the time at which those conditions become met,

(b) another period of account of L (“period 2”) began immediately before that time and ended immediately after that time, and

(c) another period of account of L began immediately after that time.

(4) If, on the continuous application assumption (see subsection (9)), there would be an amount of cumulative accountancy rental excess for period 2, that amount is the cumulative accountancy rental excess for period 2.

(a) is in addition to any other rent from the lease for period 1, and

(b) is left out of account for the purposes of section 614BF (current lessor taxed by reference to accountancy rental earnings).

(7) Rent within subsection (5) is treated for income tax purposes as if it had accrued and L had become entitled to it immediately before the end of period 1.

(a) fall to be treated, in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice, as a finance lease or loan, but

(b) are not arrangements to which Chapter 2 applies.

(2) It does not matter whether the arrangements are or have been entered into by companies or other persons.

(2) The amounts referred to in subsection (1) are determined by reference to the amounts that fall for accounting purposes to be treated, in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice, as the income return on and after 26 November 1996 on investment in respect of the finance lease or loan.

(3) The amounts referred to in subsection (1) are also determined taking into account the substance of the matter as a whole, including, in particular, the state of affairs—

(a) as between connected persons, or

(b) within a group of companies,

as reflected or falling to be reflected in accounts of any of those persons or in consolidated group accounts.

(b) the lease forms part of a post-25 November 1996 scheme,

(c) condition A in section 614BC is or has been met at some time on or after 26 November 1996 in relation to the lease in a period of account of the current lessor (“L”), and

(d) Chapter 2 does not apply in relation to the lease because of the other conditions in that section not all being, or having been, met as mentioned in section 614BB.

(2) For the meaning of “forming part of a post-25 November 1996 scheme”, see section 614D.

(3) This Chapter does not apply so far as, in relation to L, the lease falls to be regarded as a long funding lease for the purposes of Part 2 of CAA 2001 (plant and machinery allowances) in accordance with Chapter 6A of that Part (interpretation of provisions about long funding leases) (see section 70G of that Act).

(4) If condition A in section 614BC has been met at any time on or after 26 November 1996 in a period of account of the person who was at that time the lessor, it is taken to continue to be met unless and until one of the conditions in subsection (5) is met.

(5) The conditions are that—

(a) the asset ceases to be leased under the lease, or

(b) the lessor's interest under the lease is assigned to a person who is not connected with any of the persons specified in subsection (6).

(6) Those persons are—

(a) the assignor,

(b) any person who was the lessor at some time before the assignment, and

(c) any person who at some time after the assignment becomes the lessor pursuant to arrangements made by a person who was the lessor, or was connected with the lessor, at some time before the assignment.

(7) If at any time the person who was the lessor at that time was a person within the charge to corporation tax on income—

(a) the reference in subsection (4) to condition A in section 614BC having been met at that time includes a reference to condition A in section 902 of CTA 2010 having been so met, and

(b) the reference in subsection (1)(d) to the other conditions in section 614BC not having been met as mentioned in section 614BB includes a reference to the other conditions in section 902 of that Act not having been met as mentioned in section 901 of that Act.

(8) Nothing in subsection (4) prevents this Chapter from applying again in relation to the lease where the lessor's interest is assigned if the conditions for its application are met after the assignment.

Current lessor taxed by reference to accountancy rental earnings U.K.

614CC Current lessor taxed by reference to accountancy rental earnings

(1) This section applies if, in the case of any period of account of the current lessor (“L”)—

(a) this Chapter applies in relation to the lease, and

(b) the accountancy rental earnings in respect of the lease for that period of account exceed the normal rent for that period.

(2) For income tax purposes, L is treated as if in that period of account L had been entitled to, and there had arisen to L, rent from the lease of an amount equal to those accountancy rental earnings (instead of the normal rent referred to in subsection (1)(b)).

(3) Such rent from the lease of an asset is treated for income tax purposes—

(a) as if it had accrued at an even rate throughout so much of the period of account as falls within the period for which the asset is leased, and

(b) as if L had become entitled to it as it accrued.

(b) the penalty may not be reduced below the applicable minimum.

(2) In the case of a penalty under paragraph 30, the applicable minimum is—

(a) in the case of a careless inaccuracy, 0% of the notional tax if the disclosure is unprompted and 15% otherwise,

(b) in the case of a deliberate inaccuracy that is not concealed, 30% of the notional tax if the disclosure is unprompted and 45% otherwise, and

(c) in the case of a deliberate inaccuracy that is concealed, 40% of the notional tax if the disclosure is unprompted and 60% otherwise.

(3) In the case of a penalty under paragraph 32, the applicable minimum is 40% of the notional tax if the disclosure is unprompted and 60% otherwise.

(4) For the purposes of this paragraph—

(a) a person makes a disclosure of an inaccuracy by telling an officer of Revenue and Customs about it, giving an officer of Revenue and Customs reasonable help in quantifying it and allowing an officer of Revenue and Customs access to records to ensure that it is fully corrected, and

(b) a person makes an “unprompted” disclosure at any time if the person has no reason at that time to believe that an officer of Revenue and Customs have discovered, or are about to discover, the inaccuracy.

(5) If they think it right because of special circumstances, an officer of Revenue and Customs may—

(a) reduce a penalty under paragraph 30 or 32, or

(b) stay the penalty or agree a compromise in relation to proceedings for the penalty.

(6) The reference to special circumstances does not include an ability to pay but, subject to that, is taken to include, or exclude, such other circumstances as are prescribed by regulations made by the Commissioners.

(7) The power to prescribe circumstances includes power to prescribe circumstances by reference to the notional tax and the extent to which the notional tax exceeds, or is likely to exceed, any actual loss of tax to the Crown.

Assessment, payment and enforcement of penalty U.K.

34 (1) If a person becomes liable to a penalty under paragraph 30 or 32, an officer of Revenue and Customs must— U.K.

(3) The penalty must be paid before the end of the period of 30 days beginning with—

(a) the day on which the person was notified of the penalty, or

(b) if notice of appeal against the penalty is given, the day on which the appeal is finally determined or withdrawn.

(4) An assessment may be enforced—

(a) as if it were an assessment to corporation tax (which, among other things, secures the application of Chapters 6 and 7 of Part 22 of CTA 2010 (corporation tax payable by non-UK resident companies: recovery from others)), and

(b) as if that assessment were also an assessment to corporation tax of any company which was a UK group company of the group at any time in the period of account in relation to which the interest restriction return contained an inaccuracy.

Right to appeal against penalty or its amount U.K.

35 U.K. A person may, by notice, appeal against—

(a) a decision of an officer of Revenue and Customs that a penalty under paragraph 30 or 32 is payable, or

(3) On an appeal notified to the tribunal against the amount of a penalty, the tribunal may—

(a) confirm the decision, or

(b) substitute for the decision another decision that an officer of Revenue and Customs had power to make.

(4) If the tribunal substitutes its decision for a decision of an officer of Revenue and Customs, the tribunal may rely on paragraph 33(5)—

(a) to the same extent as an officer of Revenue and Customs (which may mean applying the same percentage reduction as the officer to a different starting point), or

(b) to a different extent, but only if the tribunal thinks that the decision in respect of the application of paragraph 33(5) was flawed.

(5) For this purpose “flawed” means flawed when considered in the light of the principles applicable in proceedings for judicial review.

(6) Subject to this Part of this Schedule, the provisions of Part 5 of TMA 1970 relating to appeals have effect in relation to appeals under this Part of this Schedule as they have effect in relation to appeals against an assessment to corporation tax.

Payments between companies in respect of penalties U.K.

37 (1) This paragraph applies if— U.K.

(a) a company (“P”) liable to a penalty under this Part of this Schedule has an agreement in relation to the penalty with one or more other companies within the charge to corporation tax, and

(b) as a result of the agreement, P receives a payment or payments in respect of the penalty that do not, in total, exceed the amount of the penalty.

(5) If the company is required to submit an interest restriction return for the period after the end of the relevant day and has in its possession at that time any records that may be needed to enable it to submit a correct and complete return, it is under a duty to preserve those records until the date on which—

PART 4 U.K. Enquiry into interest restriction return

Notice of enquiry U.K.

40 (1) An officer of Revenue and Customs may enquire into an interest restriction return submitted by a reporting company if the officer gives notice to the company of the officer's intention to do so (“notice of enquiry”). U.K.

(2) The general rule is that an interest restriction return which has been the subject of one notice of enquiry may not be the subject of another.

(3) If a return (“the previous return”) is superseded by an interest restriction return submitted under paragraph 8 (“the revised return”), notice of enquiry may be given in relation to the revised return even though notice of enquiry has been given in relation to the previous return.

(4) But see paragraph 43(5) for a limitation in certain circumstances on the scope of an enquiry into an interest restriction return submitted under paragraph 8.

(5) The power to give notice of enquiry into an interest restriction return for a period of account of a worldwide group does not restrict the power to give notice of enquiry into a company tax return of a company that is a member of the group at any time in that period.

(6) Accordingly, an amendment of the company's company tax return may be required as a result of an enquiry into the interest restriction return even though a closure notice has been given in respect of an enquiry into that company tax return.

(7) But see paragraph 43(2) for a limitation on the scope of an enquiry into an interest restriction return so far as affecting amounts in a company tax return.

Normal time limits for opening enquiry U.K.

41 (1) This paragraph applies where an interest restriction return is submitted by a reporting company for a period of account. U.K.

(2) Notice of enquiry may be given at any time before whichever is the latest of—

(a) the end of the period of 39 months beginning with the end of the period of account;

(b) the end of the period of 6 months beginning with the day on which the reporting company was appointed; and

(c) the end of 31 January, 30 April, 31 July or 31 October next following the first anniversary of the day on which an officer of Revenue and Customs receives the revised return.

(3) If—

(a) estimated information (or information deriving from estimated information) is included in an interest restriction return for a period of account in reliance on paragraph 27, and

(b) a period of 36 months beginning with the end of that period of account has passed without the information becoming final,

notice of enquiry may be given at any time up to and including the end of the period of 12 months beginning with the end of that 36-month period.

(4) This paragraph is subject to paragraph 42 (which allows notices of enquiry to be given after the time allowed by this paragraph or an enquiry previously closed to be re-opened).

Extended time limits for opening enquiries: discovery of errors U.K.

42 (1) Notice of enquiry may be given later than the time allowed under paragraph 41, or a closed enquiry may be re-opened, if— U.K.

(a) an officer of Revenue and Customs discovers that an interest restriction return submitted to an officer of Revenue and Customs does not, or might not, comply with the requirements of paragraph 20(3) in any respect,

(b) there would be, or might be, an increase in tax payable by any company for any accounting period if the return had complied with those requirements in that respect,

(c) the discovery is made after the time allowed under paragraph 41 or after an enquiry into the return has been closed, and

(d) the officer could not, at the relevant time and by reference to the relevant information, have been reasonably expected to be aware of the respects in which the return might not comply with those requirements.

(2) For this purpose “the relevant time” means—

(a) in a case where no notice of enquiry has been given within the time allowed under paragraph 41, when an officer of Revenue and Customs ceased to be entitled to give a notice, or

(b) in a case where an enquiry has been closed, when the officer gave the closure notice.

(3) For this purpose “the relevant information” means information which—

(a) is contained in the interest restriction return in question or either of the two returns for the immediately preceding periods of account of the group,

(b) is contained in any documents, financial statements or other accounts or information produced or provided to an officer of Revenue or Customs for the purposes of an enquiry into the interest restriction return in question or either of the two returns for the immediately preceding periods of account of the group,

(c) is information the existence of which, and the relevance of which as regards the situation mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(b), could reasonably be expected to be inferred by an officer of Revenue and Customs from information falling with paragraph (a) or (b) of this sub-paragraph, or

(d) is information the existence of which, and the relevance of which as regards the situation mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(b), are notified in writing to an officer of Revenue and Customs by the reporting company for the period of account or a person acting on its behalf.

(4) Notice of enquiry into an interest restriction return for a period of account may not be given, or a closed enquiry may not be re-opened, as a result of this paragraph more than the applicable number of years after the end of the period of account.

(5) The “applicable number of years” is—

(a) 20 years in a case involving deliberate non-compliance by the reporting company for the period of account or by a qualifying person,

(b) 6 years in a case involving careless non-compliance by the reporting company for the period of account or by a qualifying person, and

(c) 4 years in any other case.

(6) For this purpose “qualifying person” means—

(a) a person acting on behalf of the reporting company for the period of account, or

(b) a person who was a partner of the reporting company for the period of account at the relevant time.

(7) For the purposes of this paragraph an enquiry is “closed” when a closure notice is given in relation to the enquiry.

Scope of enquiry U.K.

43 (1) An enquiry into an interest restriction return extends to anything contained, or required to be contained, in the return (including any election included in the return). U.K.

(2) But the enquiry does not extend to an enquiry into an amount—

(a) which is contained, or required to be contained, in a company tax return of a UK group company, and

(b) which is taken into account in any calculation required for the purposes of the interest restriction return.

(3) Sub-paragraph (2) does not affect—

(a) any question as to whether or not, as a result of this Part of this Act, the amount falls to be left out of account, or to be brought into account, in any accounting period of the company, or

(b) the way in which, by reference to that amount and other matters, any provision of this Part of this Act has effect to determine whether or not the amount, or any other amount, is to be left out of, or brought into account, in any accounting period (whether of that company or another company).

(4) Nor does sub-paragraph (2) limit the operation of any provision of Part 4 of Schedule 18 to FA 1998 (determinations and assessments made by officers of Revenue and Customs).

(5) If—

(a) at any time an enquiry into an interest restriction return (“the previous return”) has been closed, and

(b) the previous return is subsequently superseded by an interest restriction return submitted under paragraph 8 (“the revised return”),

the enquiry into the revised return extends only to matters arising as a result of information that was not included in the previous return.

(6) For this purpose an enquiry is “closed” when a closure notice is given in relation to the enquiry.

Enquiry into return for wrong period or wrong group U.K.

44 (1) If it appears to an officer of Revenue and Customs that the period of account for which an interest restriction return has been submitted is or may be the wrong period, the power to enquire into the return includes power to enquire into the period for which the return ought to have been made. U.K.

(2) If sub-paragraph (1) applies, paragraph 41 (normal time limits for opening enquiry) has effect as if the return were one that had been submitted for the correct period of account.

(3) If it appears to an officer of Revenue and Customs that the worldwide group (“the relevant group”) in relation to which an interest restriction return has been submitted—

(a) consists of, or may consist of, two or more worldwide groups,

(b) includes, or may include, entities that are members of a different worldwide group or groups, or

(c) does not include, or may not include, entities that should be members of the relevant group,

the power to enquire into the return includes power to enquire into the returns for the periods of account of the worldwide groups which ought to have been made.

Amendment of self-assessment during enquiry to prevent loss of tax U.K.

45 (1) If after notice of enquiry has been given into an interest restriction return but before the enquiry is completed, an officer of Revenue and Customs forms the opinion that— U.K.

(a) the amount stated in the self-assessment of a company as the amount of tax payable is insufficient,

(b) the deficiency is attributable to matters in relation to which the enquiry extends, and

(c) unless the assessment is immediately amended there is likely to be a loss of tax to the Crown,

the officer may by notice to the company amend its self-assessment to make good the deficiency.

(2) In sub-paragraph (1) the reference to a company is to a company that was a member of the group at any time in the period of account for which the interest restriction return was submitted.

(3) An appeal may be brought, by notice, against an amendment of a company's self-assessment by an officer of Revenue and Customs under this paragraph.

(4) Notice of appeal must be given—

(a) within 30 days after the amendment was notified to the company,

(b) to the officer of Revenue and Customs by whom the notice of amendment was given.

(5) None of the steps mentioned in section 49A(2)(a) to (c) of TMA 1970 (reviews of the matter or notification of appeal to tribunal) may be taken in relation to the appeal before the completion of the enquiry.

(6) In this paragraph “self-assessment” has the meaning given by paragraph 7 of Schedule 18 to FA 1998.

Revision of interest restriction return during enquiry U.K.

46 (1) This paragraph applies if a reporting company submits a revised interest restriction return at a time when an enquiry is in progress into the previous return. U.K.

(2) The submission of the revised return does not restrict the scope of the enquiry but the revisions may be taken into account (together with any matter arising) in the enquiry.

(3) So far as the revised return affects the tax payable by a company, it does not take effect until the enquiry is completed (and, accordingly, paragraph 70 has effect subject to this sub-paragraph).

(4) But sub-paragraph (3) does not affect any claim by the company under section 59DA of TMA 1970 (claim for repayment in advance of liability being established).

(5) The submission of a revised return whose effect is deferred under sub-paragraph (3) takes effect as follows—

(a) if the conclusions in the closure notice state either—

(i) that the revisions were not taken into account in the enquiry, or

(ii) that no revision of the revised return is required arising from the enquiry,

the revision takes effect on the completion of the enquiry, and

(b) in any other case, the revisions take effect as part of the steps required to be taken in order to give effect to the conclusions stated in the closure notice.

(6) For the purposes of this paragraph the period during which an enquiry into an interest restriction return is in progress is the whole of the period—

(a) beginning with the day on which an officer of Revenue and Customs gives notice of enquiry into the return, and

(b) ending with the day on which the enquiry is completed.

Completion of enquiry U.K.

47 (1) An enquiry into an interest restriction return submitted by a reporting company is completed when an officer of Revenue and Customs by notice (a “closure notice”)— U.K.

(a) informs the company that the officer has completed the enquiry, and

(b) states the officer's conclusions.

(2) The closure notice takes effect when it is given.

(3) If an officer of Revenue and Customs concludes that the return should have been made for one or more different periods of account of the group, the closure notice must designate the period of account (or periods of account) for which the return should have been made.

(4) If an officer of Revenue and Customs concludes that an interest restriction return in relation to a worldwide group should have been submitted—

(a) in relation to one or more different worldwide groups, or

(b) in relation to a different membership,

the closure notice must designate each period of account of a worldwide group for which an interest restriction return should have been made or for which an interest restriction return should have been submitted in relation to a different membership.

(5) If the officer concludes that the group in relation to which the return was submitted has a different membership, the designation under sub-paragraph (4) must also include details of the members of the group that the officer considers are UK group companies.

(6) If the officer concludes that the return should have been submitted in relation to one or more different worldwide groups, the designation under sub-paragraph (4) must also include—

(a) sufficient details to identify the different worldwide group or groups, and

(b) details of the members of the group that the officer considers are UK group companies.

(7) A designation by a closure notice of a period of account under this paragraph must specify the dates on which the period of account begins and ends.

(8) In this paragraph references to UK group companies, in relation to a period of account, do not include UK group companies that are dormant throughout the period.

Direction to complete enquiry U.K.

48 (1) An application may be made at any time to the tribunal for a direction that an officer of Revenue and Customs gives a closure notice in respect of an enquiry into an interest restriction return within a specified period. U.K.

(2) The application is to be made by the reporting company for the period of account of the group for which the return was submitted.

(3) The application is subject to the relevant provisions of Part 5 of TMA 1970 (see, in particular, section 48(2)(b) of that Act).

(4) The tribunal must give a direction unless satisfied that an officer of Revenue and Customs has reasonable grounds for not giving a closure notice within a specified period.

Conclusions of enquiry U.K.

49 (1) This paragraph applies where a closure notice is given under paragraph 47 to a company by an officer. U.K.

(2) The closure notice must—

(a) state that, in the officer's opinion, no steps are required to be taken by the company as a result of the enquiry, or

(b) state the steps that the company is required to take in order to give effect to the conclusions stated in the notice.

(3) The closure notice may (but need not) specify the allocated disallowance for particular companies specified in the notice.

(4) If—

(a) the return was made for the wrong period, and

(b) a period of account designated under paragraph 47(3) begins or ends at any time in that period,

the closure notice must require the company to take steps to make the return one appropriate to that designated period of account.

(5) If there is more than one designated period of account within sub-paragraph (4), the closure notice must require the company to submit an interest restriction return for each of those designated periods of account.

(6) If—

(a) a period of account of a worldwide group (“the relevant group”) is designated under paragraph 47(4),

(b) the company is a member of the relevant group for that period of account, and

(c) condition A or B is met,

the closure notice must require the company to submit an interest restriction return for the designated period of account of the relevant group.

(7) Condition A is met if the UK group companies comprised in the relevant group were regarded as members of the worldwide group in relation to which the return was made.

(8) Condition B is met if—

(a) the relevant group includes UK group companies that were not regarded as members of the group in relation to which the return was made, and

(b) the ultimate parent of the relevant group is not the ultimate parent of a worldwide group in relation to which a reporting company has been appointed for a period of account that includes a time falling within the designated period of account of the relevant group.

(9) If sub-paragraph (6) applies in relation to two or more designated periods of account of a worldwide group (whether those periods are of the same or different groups), the closure notice must require the company to submit separate interest restriction returns for each of the designated periods of account.

(10) If, as a result of this paragraph, a closure notice requires a company to submit an interest restriction return for a period of account of a worldwide group, the company is treated for the purposes of this Part of this Act as if it had been appointed as the reporting company of the group in relation to the period.

(11) For this purpose it does not matter whether the return that was subject to the enquiry was submitted in relation to a different worldwide group.

(12) Sub-paragraph (10) is ignored in determining the period within which the return must be submitted (as to which, see instead paragraph 50(2)).

Interest restriction returns to be submitted to an officer of Revenue and Customs U.K.

50 (1) If, as a result of a closure notice given under paragraph 47 (closure notice in respect of a return subject to enquiry), a company is required to submit one or more interest restriction returns, the return or returns must— U.K.

(a) be submitted to an officer of Revenue and Customs,

(b) give effect to the conclusions stated in the notice, and

(c) contain such consequential provision as the company considers appropriate.

(2) A return submitted in compliance with the closure notice is of no effect unless it is received by an officer of Revenue and Customs before the end of the period of 3 months beginning with the day on which the closure notice is given to the company.

(3) A return submitted in compliance with the closure notice—

(a) must indicate the respects in which it differs from the return that was the subject of the enquiry, and

(b) supersedes that return.

(4) For provision dealing with cases where no return is submitted before the end of the period mentioned in sub-paragraph (2), see paragraph 58.

Return in relation to a worldwide group: other entities part of another group U.K.

51 (1) This paragraph applies if— U.K.

(a) an enquiry has been made into an interest restriction return (“the original return”) for a period of account of a worldwide group (“the original group”),

(b) a closure notice has been given in respect of the enquiry that designates a period of account of a worldwide group under paragraph 47(4) (“the new group”),

(c) the new group consists of both UK group companies that were not regarded as members of the original group and other UK group companies, and

(d) the ultimate parent of the new group is the ultimate parent of a worldwide group (“the existing group”) in relation to which a reporting company has been appointed for a period of account that includes a time falling within the designated period of account of the new group.

(2) An officer of Revenue and Customs must give a notice to that company appointing it as the reporting company in relation to each designated period of account of the new group.

(3) The notice of appointment must be given within the period of 30 days beginning with the day on which the closure notice was given.

(4) If—

(a) an interest restriction return has been submitted for a period of account of the existing group, and

(b) that period of account begins or ends at any time in a designated period of account of the new group,

the return is to be treated as withdrawn.

(5) Accordingly—

(a) any notice of enquiry or closure notice in relation to the return is also to be treated as withdrawn,

(b) any appeal in respect of any matter stated in a closure notice in relation to the return is treated as withdrawn, and

(c) any determination of any such appeal is treated as being of no effect.

(6) If—

(a) an interest restriction return for a period of account is treated as withdrawn as a result of sub-paragraph (4), and

(b) the period of account begins at any time before a designated period of account of the new group,

the notice under sub-paragraph (2) is also to be treated as if it constituted, on the day on which it is given, the appointment of the company in relation to a period of account of the existing group beginning with that time and ending immediately before the beginning of the designated period of account.

(7) If—

(a) enquiries are open at any time in relation to more than one interest restriction return, and

(b) this paragraph is capable of applying by reference to a closure notice to be given in respect of any one of those enquiries (so that a worldwide group could be either the original group or the existing group),

an officer of Revenue and Customs must select the company that, in the officer's opinion, ought to be the reporting company in relation to the new group.

(8) For this purpose an enquiry is “open” in relation to an interest restriction return if no closure notice has been given in relation to the enquiry.

Appeal against closure notice or notice under paragraph 51 U.K.

52 (1) If a closure notice — U.K.

(a) is given to a company under paragraph 47, and

(c) notice of enquiry is given into the return.

(2) An officer of Revenue and Customs may determine that, in preparing the return, a different just and reasonable basis should have been adopted for dealing with that thing.

(3) A closure notice given in respect of the return must require the reporting company to whom the notice is given to revise the return to give effect to that determination.

(4) The officer's determination may be questioned on an appeal under paragraph 52 on the ground that the basis to be adopted is not just and reasonable (but not on any other ground).
