INCOME TAX
These Regulations amend the Individual Savings Account Regulations 1998 (S.I. 1998/1870: “the principal Regulations”). The main effect of these Regulations is to allow individuals who had ISAs with Icesave Bank (suspended on 8th October 2008) to reinvest up to the closing balance of their accounts in an ISA managed by another account manager, not later than 5th October 2009. Such reinvestments have already taken place under the terms of ISA Bulletins 6, 9 and 13. The new regulation 5A therefore has effect from 8th October 2008 (before these Regulations are made) and makes provision which does not impose or increase any liability to tax. In these circumstances, authority to make retrospective provision is conferred by section 701(4) of the Income Tax (Trading and Other Income) Act 2005 (inserted by section 40 of the Finance Act 2008).
