These Regulations supplement the provisions of Chapter VIIA of Part IV of the Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988 (inserted by paragraph 1 of Schedule 29 to the Finance Act 1996) which relate to the accounting for tax on foreign dividends by paying agents, and the accounting for tax on foreign dividends and quoted Eurobond interest by collecting agents. The Regulations make further provision in relation to the circumstances whereby paying and collecting agents are not liable to account for tax in respect of such dividends or interest paid or received by them.
