(4)In this paragraph “adjustments” means any adjustments, whether by way of an assessment, the modification of an assessment or return, the amendment or disallowance of a claim, a payment, the entering into of a contract settlement or otherwise.

(3)For the purposes of this paragraph a counteraction is “final”—
(a)when a relevant contract settlement is made, or
(b)if no contract settlement has been made, when the assessment in question and any amounts arising from the assessment can no longer be varied, on appeal or otherwise.
