(a)is, for the purposes of the UCITS Directive, an undertaking for collective investment in transferable securities, and
(b)is authorised pursuant to Article 5 of the UCITS Directive in a Member State other than the United Kingdom.
(2)If—
(a)the offshore fund is a body corporate which, under the law of the Member State in which it is authorised pursuant to Article 5 of the UCITS Directive, is treated as resident in that State for the purposes of any tax imposed under that law on income, and
(b)(apart from this section) the body corporate would be treated as resident in the United Kingdom for the purposes of any enactment (within the meaning of section 354) relating to income tax, corporation tax or capital gains tax,
