23(1)Paragraph 24(1) applies where—U.K.
(a)a person (“P”) would (ignoring paragraph 24) be treated as taking a relevant step within paragraph 1 by reason of making a loan, or a quasi-loan, to a relevant person,
(b)an accelerated payment notice, or a partner payment notice, relating to a relevant charge (the “accelerated payment notice”) has been given under Chapter 3 of Part 4 of FA 2014,
(c)the relevant person makes a payment (the “accelerated payment”) in respect of the understated or disputed tax to which the notice relates,
(d)the accelerated payment is made on or before the relevant date, and
(e)the amount of the loan or quasi-loan that, at the end of the relevant date, is outstanding for the purposes of paragraph 1 (see paragraphs 3 to 18) is equal to or less than the amount of the accelerated payment.
(2)In sub-paragraph (1)(b), “relevant charge” means a charge to tax arising by reason of a step taken pursuant to the relevant arrangement concerned.
(3)The reference in sub-paragraph (2) to the relevant arrangement concerned is a reference to the relevant arrangement in pursuance of which, or in connection with which, the loan or quasi-loan mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(a) is made.
(4)In sub-paragraph (1)(d) and (e), “the relevant date” means—
(a)the approved repayment date, if P has made a loan which is an approved fixed term loan on 5 April 2019, or
(b)5 April 2019, in any other case.
(5)In sub-paragraphs (1)(c) and (2)—
(a)the reference to tax includes a reference to relevant contributions, and
(b)the reference to a charge to tax includes a reference to a liability to pay relevant contributions;
and for those purposes “relevant contributions” has the same meaning as in Schedule 2 to the National Insurance Contributions Act 2015 (application of Part 4 of FA 2014 to national insurance contributions).
(6)If more than one notice relating to a particular relevant charge has been given—
(a)the reference in sub-paragraph (1)(e) to the amount of the accelerated payment is to be treated as a reference to the aggregate of the amounts of each accelerated payment in respect of which the conditions in sub-paragraph (1)(c) and (d) are met, and
(b)the reference in paragraph 24(2) to the accelerated payment notice is to be treated as a reference to the accelerated payment notices or any of them.
