SCHEDULE 2 

Returns for disposals of UK land etc

Section 14

PART 1 Returns and payments on account: disposals of UK land etc

Disposals to which Schedule applies

1
1 This Schedule applies for the purposes of capital gains tax to—
a any direct or indirect disposal of UK land which meets the non-residence condition (whether or not a gain accrues) and which is made on or after 6 April 2019, and
b any other direct disposal of UK land on which a residential property gain accrues and which is made on or after 6 April 2020,
but this Schedule does not apply to excluded disposals.
2 A disposal is an excluded disposal if—
a it is a disposal on which, as a result of any of the no gain/no loss provisions, neither a gain nor a loss accrues,
b it is the grant of a lease for no premium to a person not connected with the grantor under a bargain made at arm's length,
c it is a disposal made by a charity, or
d it is a disposal of any pension scheme investments.
3 The Treasury may by regulations amend sub-paragraph (2).
4 See also paragraph 9 for a case where a disposal which would have been within sub-paragraph (1)(b) if a gain had accrued is treated, for certain purposes, as if it were a disposal to which this Schedule applies.
2
1 A disposal is a “direct or indirect disposal of UK land which meets the non-residence condition” if it is—
a a disposal on which a gain accrues that falls to be dealt with by section 1A(3) of TCGA 1992 because the asset disposed of is within paragraph (b) or (c) of that subsection,
b a disposal on which a gain accrues that falls to be dealt with by section 1A(1) of that Act in accordance with section 1G(2) because the asset disposed of is within section 1A(3)(b) or (c), or
c a disposal of an asset on which a gain does not accrue but which, had a gain accrued, would fall to be dealt with as mentioned in either of the preceding paragraphs of this sub-paragraph.
2 A disposal is “any other direct disposal of UK land on which a residential property gain accrues” if the disposal is a disposal on which a residential property gain accrues where—
a the land in question is in the United Kingdom, and
b the gain falls to be dealt with by section 1A(1) or (3)(a) of TCGA 1992,
and the disposal does not fall within sub-paragraph (1).
3 This paragraph applies for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule.

Obligation to deliver a return to officer of Revenue and Customs

3
1 If a person makes a disposal to which this Schedule applies, the person—
a must make a return in respect of the disposal, and
b must deliver the return to an officer of Revenue and Customs on or before the 60th day following the day of the completion of the disposal.
2 If—
a a person makes two or more disposals to which this Schedule applies, and
b the disposals are made in the same tax year with the same completion date,
the person must make and deliver a single return with respect to the disposals.
3 This paragraph is subject to—
a paragraph 4 (residential property gain accruing but no payment on account required),
b paragraph 5 (ordinary tax return already delivered etc), and
c paragraph 10 (disposal in case of a collective investment scheme).
4
1 If—
a a person makes a disposal to which this Schedule applies as a result of paragraph 1(1)(b), and
b the person would not be liable under paragraph 6 to pay an amount on account of the person's liability to capital gains tax for the tax year concerned,
the person is not required to make or deliver a return under this Schedule in respect of the disposal.
2 In determining whether sub-paragraph (1)(b) applies, it is to be assumed that the person is required to make a return under this Schedule in respect of the disposal.
5
1 A person is not required to make or deliver a return under this Schedule in respect of a disposal if the filing date for the return would otherwise fall on or after—
a the date on which the person has delivered to an officer of Revenue and Customs the person's ordinary tax return containing a self-assessment that takes account of the disposal, or
b the date on or before which the person has (by notice) been required to deliver to an officer of Revenue and Customs the person's ordinary tax return for the tax year concerned.
2 For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(a), a self-assessment does not take account of the disposal if the amount of capital gains tax that is self-assessed is less than the amount that would be payable under paragraph 6 if the person were required to make and deliver a return under this Schedule in respect of the disposal.

Obligation to make a payment on account of capital gains tax

6
1 This paragraph applies if—
a a person is required to make a return under this Schedule in respect of any disposal, and
b as at the filing date for the return, an amount of capital gains tax is notionally chargeable on the person (as determined in accordance with paragraph 7).
2 The person is liable to pay that amount on account of the person's liability to capital gains tax for the tax year concerned so far as that amount has not already become payable as a result of any previous return under this Schedule in respect of a disposal in that period.
3 The amount is payable on the filing date for the return.
4 For cases where there are repayments of amounts previously paid on account of capital gains tax, see paragraphs 8 and 9.

Calculation of an amount of capital gains tax notionally chargeable

7
1 This paragraph applies for determining the amount of capital gains tax (if any) which is notionally chargeable on a person as at the filing date for a return.
2 The amount of capital gains tax notionally chargeable on the person as at that date is the amount of that tax for which the person would be liable for the tax year concerned, ignoring, for this purpose, the following disposals—
a disposals which have a completion date later than the completion date of the disposal in respect of which the return is made (but see sub-paragraph (3)), and
b disposals on which gains accrue but which are not disposals to which this Schedule applies.
3 A disposal on which a loss accrues is not to be ignored under sub-paragraph (2)(a) if the time at which the disposal is made (as determined under section 28 of TCGA 1992) falls on or before the completion date of the disposal in respect of which the return is made.
3A In the case of a disposal to which this Schedule applies as a result of paragraph 1(1)(b) where a proportion of the chargeable gain accruing on the disposal is not a residential property gain, ignore that proportion for the purposes of this paragraph.
4 For provision relevant to the operation of this paragraph, see paragraphs 14 and 15 (making of assumptions, reasonable estimates etc).

Repayments of amounts previously paid on account of capital gains tax

8
1 This paragraph applies if—
a a person makes and delivers a return under this Schedule in respect of a disposal,
b the person has previously paid amounts on account of the person's liability to capital gains tax for the tax year concerned, and
c the amounts exceed the amount of capital gains tax notionally chargeable on the person as at the filing date for the return.
2 The excess is repayable to the person on the filing date for the return.
3 In determining the total amount of payments that have, at any time, been made on account of a person's liability to capital gains tax for a tax year, account must be taken of amounts already repaid under this paragraph.
9
1 If—
a a person makes a disposal on which an allowable loss accrues, and
b had a gain accrued instead, the disposal would have been one to which this Schedule applies as a result of paragraph 1(1)(b),
the person may make and deliver a return under this Schedule in respect of the disposal for the purpose of securing the application of paragraph 8.
2 Accordingly, the disposal is treated for that purpose as if it were a disposal to which this Schedule applies.
3 This paragraph does not apply in respect of a disposal if the filing date for the return which the person would otherwise be entitled to make and deliver falls on or after the date mentioned in paragraph 5(1)(a) or (b).

Collective investment vehicles to which Sch.5AAA to TCGA 1992 applies

10
1 A person is not required to make or deliver a return under this Schedule in respect of a disposal if—
a the disposal has an appropriate connection to a collective investment vehicle for the purposes of paragraph 6 of Schedule 5AAA to TCGA 1992, and
b the person would not be liable under paragraph 6 of this Schedule to pay an amount on account of the person's liability to capital gains tax for the tax year concerned.
2 In determining whether sub-paragraph (1)(b) applies, it is to be assumed that the person is required to make a return under this Schedule in respect of the disposal.
3 If, by virtue of sub-paragraph (1), a person is not required to make or deliver a return under this Schedule in respect of a disposal, the person is not required to make a claim to obtain relief under section 6(2)(a) or (3)(a) of TIOPA 2010 in respect of the disposal (despite subsection (6) of that section).
11
1 This paragraph applies if—
a an election under paragraph 8 of Schedule 5AAA to TCGA 1992 (election for CIV to be treated as partnership for purposes of Act) has effect in respect of an offshore collective investment vehicle (within the meaning of that Schedule),
b a disposal is made of property that is the subject of or held by the vehicle,
c the disposal is made before the day on which this election is made, and
d a person is required to make a return under this Schedule in respect of the disposal.
2 The disposal is treated for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule as if it completed on the day on which the election is made.
12
1 This paragraph applies if—
a a disposal is deemed to have been made by a person as a result of paragraph 21 or 22 of Schedule 5AAA to TCGA 1992 (qualifying offshore CIV etc), and
b the person is required to make a return under this Schedule in respect of the disposal.
2 If the disposal is one to which paragraph 23 of that Schedule applies (gains treated as accruing when value received)—
a a disposal to which this Schedule applies is treated as being made by the person on each occasion on which any part of the gain is treated as accruing to the person under that paragraph, and
b the time at which that disposal is treated as completing is the time at which the part of the gain is treated as so accruing to the person or, if later, the time at which the required notification is given to the person.
3 If the disposal is not one to which paragraph 23 of Schedule 5AAA to TCGA 1992 applies, it is treated for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule as if it completed on the day on which the required notification is given to the person.
4 In this paragraph “the required notification” means notification under paragraph 25 of Schedule 5AAA to TCGA 1992 in relation to the disposal deemed to have been made as a result of paragraph 21 or 22 of that Schedule.
5 In determining for the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(b) whether a person is required to make a return under this Schedule in respect of the disposal the effect of paragraphs 4, 5 and 10 is ignored.

Effect of s.144(2) or 144A(2)(b) of TCGA 1992 when asset sold on exercise of option

13
1 This paragraph applies if—
a an option is granted binding the grantor to sell an asset and the grant of the option is a disposal to which this Schedule applies, and
b the option is then exercised so that, as a result of section 144(2) or 144A(2)(b) of TCGA 1992, the grant of the option is treated as the same transaction as the sale.
2 Despite section 144(2) or 144A(2)(b) of TCGA 1992, the grantor remains subject to the obligations under this Schedule in relation to the grant of the option.
3 In this paragraph references to sale are to be read in accordance with section 144(6) of TCGA 1992.

Making of assumptions, reasonable estimates etc

14
1 If, in determining whether a disposal is one to which this Schedule applies—
a a question arises as to whether a provision of TCGA 1992 applies, and
b the determination of the question requires account to be taken of times after the completion of the disposal,
it is to be assumed that the provision does apply if, at the time of the completion of the disposal, it is reasonable to expect that it will apply.
2 For the purposes of this Schedule it is to be assumed that a person has made a claim or election or given a notice if, at the time of the completion of the disposal in respect of which a return is required to be made under this Schedule, it is reasonable to expect that one will be made or given.
3 Nothing in sub-paragraph (2) is to be read as affecting—
a any requirement imposed by or under any Act for a claim, election or notice to be made or given in a particular way or by a particular time, or
b any other provision made by or under any Act that is concerned with the making or giving of the claim, election or notice.
4 If—
a a person is required to make and deliver a return under this Schedule, and
b having regard to the person's knowledge and all other relevant circumstances, it is reasonable to make an estimate of a qualifying matter,
the person may make a reasonable estimate of that matter in the return.
5 For this purpose “qualifying matter” means—
a anything that is relevant to the application of section 1I of TCGA 1992,
b the value of anything, or
c the value of amounts to be apportioned to anything.
15
1 This paragraph applies if a person is required to make and deliver a return under this Schedule in respect of a disposal and, at any time after the completion of the disposal—
a it becomes reasonable to expect that, by reference to the person's residence, a provision of TCGA 1992 will apply,
b it becomes reasonable to conclude that a provision of TCGA 1992 conferring a relief applies in relation to the disposal,
c matters relevant to the application of section 1I of TCGA 1992 become known, or it becomes reasonable to make a different estimate of those matters, where an estimate of those matters was used in the return, or
d the value of anything, or of any amount to be apportioned to anything, becomes known where an estimate was used in the return.
2 The person may (but need not) assume, for the purposes of this Schedule—
a that there is an additional disposal to which this Schedule applies,
b that the additional disposal completed at the later time by reference to which this paragraph applies, and
c that the additional disposal is in all other respects a replication of the actual disposal.
3 In determining the amount of capital gains tax notionally chargeable as at the filing date for a return in respect of the additional disposal, the actual disposal is ignored.

Contents of return

16A return under this Schedule—
a must contain information of a description specified by an officer of Revenue and Customs (and different descriptions of information may be specified for different cases), and
b must include a declaration by the person making it that the return is, to the best of the person's knowledge, correct and complete.

Interpretation of “residential property gains”

16A
1 In this Part of this Schedule “residential property gain” means so much of a chargeable gain accruing to a person on a disposal of residential property as, in accordance with paragraph 16B, is attributable to that property.
2 The question whether or not a person disposes of residential property is determined in accordance with paragraphs 16C to 16G.
16B
1 For the purposes of paragraph 16A the proportion of a chargeable gain attributable to residential property is equal to—
a the relevant fraction of the gain, and
b if there has been mixed use of the land to which the disposal relates on one or more days in the applicable period, the relevant fraction of the gain as adjusted, on a just and reasonable basis, to take account of the mixed use on the day or days.
2 The relevant fraction is A/B where—
  • A is the number of days in the applicable period on which the land to which the disposal relates consists of or includes a dwelling, and
  • B is the total number of days in the applicable period.
3 There is mixed use of land on any day on which the land consists of—
a one or more dwellings, and
b other land.
4 If the disposal is of an interest in land subsisting under a contract for the acquisition of land consisting of or including a building that is to be constructed or adapted for use as a dwelling, that land is taken to consist of or include a dwelling throughout the applicable period.
5 In this paragraph “the applicable period” means the period—
a beginning with the day on which the person making the disposal acquired the interest in land being disposed of or, if later, the day from which the interest in land became chargeable, and
b ending with the day before the day on which the disposal occurs.
6 For the purposes of this paragraph an interest in land became “chargeable”—
a in any case where the disposal is of an interest in land in the United Kingdom—
i by a person in a tax year in which the person is not UK resident, or
ii by a person in the overseas part of a tax year which is, as respects the person, a split year,
from 6 April 2015, and
b in any other case, from 31 March 1982.
7 If the interest in land disposed of by the person results from interests in land acquired by the person at different times, the person is regarded for the purposes of this paragraph as having acquired the interest disposed of at the time of the first acquisition.
16C
1 For the purposes of paragraph 16A a person “disposes of residential property” if the person disposes of an interest in land in a case where—
a the land consisted of or included a dwelling at any time falling on or after the date on which the applicable period begins,
b the interest in land subsisted for the benefit of land that consisted of or included a dwelling at any time falling on or after that date, or
c the interest in land subsists under a contract for the acquisition of land consisting of or including a building that is to be constructed or adapted for use as a dwelling.
2 No account is to be taken for the purposes of this paragraph of any time falling on (or after) the day on which the disposal is made.
16D
1 For the purposes of paragraphs 16B to 16H an “interest in land” means—
a an estate, interest, right or power in or over land, or
b the benefit of an obligation, restriction or condition affecting the value of an estate, interest, right or power in or over land,
other than an excluded interest.
2 The following interests are “excluded interests”—
a any interest or right held for securing the payment of money or the performance of any other obligation,
b a licence to use or occupy land,
c in relation to land in England and Wales or Northern Ireland, a tenancy at will or an advowson, franchise or manor, and
d such other descriptions of interest or right in relation to land as may be specified in regulations made by the Treasury.
3 An interest or right is not within sub-paragraph (2)(a) if it is—
a a rentcharge, or
b in relation to land in Scotland, a feu duty or a payment mentioned in section 56(1) of the Abolition of Feudal Tenure etc. (Scotland) Act 2000.
4 The grant of an option by a person binding the person to dispose of an interest in land is (so far as it would not otherwise be the case) regarded as a disposal of an interest in land by the person for the purposes of this Schedule.
5 This does not affect the operation of section 144 in relation to the grant of the option (or otherwise).
6 In applying the domestic concepts of law mentioned in this paragraph to land outside the United Kingdom, this paragraph is to be read so as to produce the result most closely corresponding with that produced in relation to land in the United Kingdom.
7 In this paragraph—
  • “franchise” means a grant from the Crown such as the right to hold a market or fair, or the right to take tolls, and
  • “land” includes—
    1. buildings and structures, and
    2. land under the sea or otherwise covered by water.
16E
1 For the purposes of paragraphs 16B to 16H a building is a dwelling at any time when—
a it is used, or suitable for use, as a dwelling, or
b it is in the process of being constructed or adapted for use as a dwelling,
and, in each case, it is not an institutional building.
2 Land that at any time is, or is intended to be, occupied or enjoyed with a dwelling as a garden or grounds (including any building or structure) is taken to be part of the dwelling at that time.
3 A building is an institutional building if—
a it is used as residential accommodation for school pupils,
b it is used as residential accommodation for members of the armed forces,
c it is used as a home or other institution providing residential accommodation for children,
d it is used as a home or other institution providing residential accommodation with personal care for persons in need of personal care because of old age, disability, past or present dependence on alcohol or drugs or past or present mental disorder,
e it is used as a hospital or hospice,
f it is used as a prison or similar establishment,
g it is used as a hotel or inn or similar establishment,
h it is otherwise used, or suitable for use, as an institution that is the sole or main residence of its residents,
i it falls within—
i paragraph 4 of Schedule 14 to the Housing Act 2004 (buildings in England or Wales occupied by students and managed or controlled by educational establishment etc), or
ii any provision having effect in Scotland or Northern Ireland that is designated by regulations made by the Treasury as provision corresponding to paragraph 4 of that Schedule, or
j it qualifies in accordance with the next sub-paragraph as student accommodation.
4 A building qualifies as student accommodation in accordance with this sub-paragraph at any time if the time falls in a tax year in which—
a the accommodation provided by the building includes at least 15 bedrooms,
b the accommodation is purpose-built, or is converted, for occupation by students, and
c the accommodation is occupied by students on at least 165 days.
5 Accommodation is to be regarded as occupied by persons as students if they occupy it wholly or mainly for undertaking a course of education (otherwise than as school pupils).
16F
1 A building is treated for the purposes of paragraph 16E as continuing to be suitable for use as a dwelling at any time when it has become temporarily unsuitable for use as a dwelling.
2 There is an exception to this rule if—
a the temporary unsuitability resulted from accidental damage to the building, and
b the damage resulted in the building becoming unsuitable for use as a dwelling for a period of at least 90 consecutive days (“the 90 day period”).
3 This exception does not apply if the damage occurred in the course of work that—
a was being done for the purpose of altering the building, and
b itself involved, or could be expected to involve, making the building unsuitable for use as a dwelling for at least 30 consecutive days.
4 If the exception applies, work done in the 90 day period to restore the building to suitability for use as a dwelling is not to count for the purposes of paragraph 16E as constructing or adapting the building for use as a dwelling.
5 For the purposes of this paragraph—
a references to accidental damage include damage otherwise caused by events beyond the control of the person disposing of the interest in land,
b references to alteration of a building include its partial demolition, and
c the 90 day period does not include the day of the disposal (or later days).
6 For the purposes of this paragraph a building’s unsuitability for use as a dwelling is not regarded as temporary if paragraph 16G applies (disposal of a building that has undergone works).
16G
1 If—
a a person disposes of an interest in land on which a building has been suitable for use as a dwelling, and
b as a result of qualifying works, the building has, at or before the time of completion of the disposal, ceased to exist or become unsuitable for use as a dwelling,
the building is to be regarded for the purposes of paragraph 16E as unsuitable for use as a dwelling throughout the works period.
2 For the purposes of this paragraph works are “qualifying” works if—
a any planning permission or development consent required for the works, or for any change of use with which they are associated, has been granted (whether before or after completion), and
b the works have been carried out in accordance with the permission or consent.
3 In this paragraph “the works period” means—
a the period when the works were in progress, and
b such period (if any) ending immediately before the start of the works throughout which the building was, for reasons connected with the works, not used as dwelling.
4 If at any time when qualifying works are in progress—
a the building was undergoing any other work, or put to any other use, in relation to which planning permission or development consent was required but has not (at any time) been granted, or
b anything else was being done in contravention of a condition or requirement attached to a planning permission or development consent relating to the building,
the works period does not include that time.
5 If sub-paragraph (1) would have applied but for the fact that, at the completion of the disposal, the works are not qualifying works, the works are regarded as not affecting the building's suitability for use as a dwelling at any time before the disposal.
16H
1 For the purposes of paragraphs 16B to 16G a building is regarded as ceasing to exist from the time when either—
a it has been demolished completely to ground level, or
b it has been demolished to ground level except for a single facade (or a double facade if it is on a corner site) the retention of which is a condition or requirement of planning permission or development consent.
2 For the purposes of paragraphs 16B to 16G the completion of the disposal of an interest in land is regarded as occurring—
a at the time of the disposal, or
b if the disposal is under a contract which is completed by a conveyance, transfer or other instrument, at the time when the instrument takes effect.
3 For the purposes of paragraphs 16B to 16G—
  • “building” includes a part of a building,
  • “development consent” means—
    1. in the case of land in the United Kingdom, development consent under the Planning Act 2008, and
    2. in the case of land outside the United Kingdom, consent corresponding to development consent under that Act, and
  • planning permission“—
    1. in the case of land in England or Wales, has the meaning given by section 336(1) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990,
    2. in the case of land in Scotland, has the meaning given by section 227(1) of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997,
    3. in the case of land in Northern Ireland, has the meaning given by Article 2(2) of the Planning (Northern Ireland) Order 1991, and
    4. in the case of land outside the United Kingdom, means permission corresponding to any planning permission in relation to land anywhere in the United Kingdom.

Other interpretation

17
1 In this Part of this Schedule—
  • “the filing date”, in relation to a return in respect of a disposal, means the date on or before which the return in respect of the disposal must be delivered to an officer of Revenue and Customs,
  • “lease” has the meaning given by paragraph 10 of Schedule 8 to TCGA 1992,
  • “ordinary tax return” means a return under section 8 or 8A of TMA 1970,
  • “pension scheme investments” means investments held for the purposes of a registered pension scheme or an overseas pension scheme (and expressions used in this definition have the same meaning as they have in section 271(1A) of TCGA 1992),
  • “premium” has the meaning given by paragraph 10 of Schedule 8 to TCGA 1992,
  • F26... and
  • “the tax year concerned”, in relation to a disposal, means the tax year in which the disposal is made.
2 In this Part of this Schedule the “completion” of a disposal is regarded as occurring—
a at the time of the disposal, or
b if the disposal is under a contract which is completed by a conveyance, transfer or other instrument later than the time of the disposal, at the time when the instrument takes effect.
3 This Part of this Schedule has effect as if it were included in TCGA 1992.

PART 2 Notification of chargeable amounts, amendments of returns, enquiries etc

Requirement to notify HMRC of amounts chargeable to tax

18
1 A person is not required to give a notice under section 7 of TMA 1970 merely by reference to a chargeable gain accruing on a disposal if—
a the person delivers a return under this Schedule in respect of the disposal, and
b the return is delivered before the end of the notification period within the meaning of that section.
2 But sub-paragraph (1) does not apply if the amount of capital gains tax notionally chargeable on the person as at the filing date for the return (as determined in accordance with paragraph 7) is less than the amount of capital gains tax for which the person is liable for the tax year concerned.

Amendments of returns

19
1 The amendment provisions applicable to ordinary tax returns apply in relation to returns made by a person under this Schedule as they apply in relation to ordinary tax returns, but subject to the following limitations or other modifications.
2 An amendment is permitted only so far as the return under this Schedule could, when originally delivered, have included the amendment by reference to things already done.
3 A person may not make an amendment of a return under this Schedule in respect of a disposal at any time on or after—
a the date on which the person has delivered to an officer of Revenue and Customs the person's ordinary tax return containing a self-assessment that takes account of the disposal, or
b the date on or before which the person has (by notice) been required to deliver to an officer of Revenue and Customs the person's ordinary tax return for the tax year concerned.
4 If a person is not required to deliver an ordinary tax return for the tax year concerned, the person may not make an amendment of a return under this Schedule more than 12 months after the last day for delivery of an ordinary tax return.
5 For the purposes of this paragraph “the amendment provisions applicable to ordinary tax returns” means sections 9ZA and 9ZB of TMA 1970.

Enquiries

20
1 The enquiry provisions apply in relation to returns made by a person under this Schedule as they apply in relation to ordinary tax returns, but subject as follows.
2 If the person is required to deliver an ordinary tax return for the tax year concerned, the time allowed for giving a notice of enquiry into a return under this Schedule is the same as that allowed for giving a notice of enquiry into the ordinary tax return.
3 If the person is not required to deliver an ordinary tax return for the tax year concerned, the time allowed for giving a notice of enquiry into a return under this Schedule is determined on the assumption that the person was required to deliver an ordinary tax return for that year and that it was delivered at the later of—
a the last day for delivery of an ordinary tax return, and
b the day on which the return under this Schedule was delivered.
4 If there is an enquiry into a return under this Schedule—
a nothing in paragraph 8 requires any repayment to be made before the day on which the enquiry is completed, but
b the officer of Revenue and Customs concerned may, at any time before that day, make the repayment, on a provisional basis, to such extent as the officer thinks fit.
5 If—
a a notice of enquiry (“the main enquiry notice”) is given at any time into an ordinary tax return for a tax year, and
b a notice of enquiry into a return under this Schedule has not been given, on or before that time, in respect of a disposal to which this Schedule applies which is made in that tax year,
the main enquiry notice is also taken to constitute a notice of enquiry into the return under this Schedule in respect of the disposal.
6 If—
a a final closure notice (“the main closure notice”) is given at any time which completes an enquiry into an ordinary tax return for a tax year, and
b a final closure notice of an enquiry into a return under this Schedule has not been given, on or before that time, in respect of a disposal to which this Schedule applies which is made in that period,
the main closure notice is also taken to constitute a final closure notice of the enquiry into the return under this Schedule in respect of the disposal.
7 For the purposes of this paragraph “the enquiry provisions” means sections 9A and 28A of TMA 1970 and the other provisions of that Act so far as they relate to those sections.
8 Nothing in this paragraph is to be read as affecting the operation of the enquiry provisions in relation to ordinary tax returns.

Revenue determinations

22
1 The Revenue determination provision applicable to ordinary tax returns applies in relation to returns made by a person under this Schedule as it applies in relation to ordinary tax returns, but subject to the following modifications.
2 The modifications are that—
a any reference to being given a notice is to be read as a reference to being required to deliver a return under this Schedule,
b any reference to the filing date is to be read as a reference to the filing date within the meaning of this Part of this Schedule (but see paragraph (e)),
c any reference to the amounts to be determined is to be read as a reference to the amount of capital gains tax which is notionally chargeable on a person as at the filing date for a return under this Schedule,
d any reference in any enactment to the purposes for which a determination is to have effect is to be ignored, and
e the determination may not be made after the end of the period of 3 years beginning with the last day for delivery of an ordinary tax return.
3 If—
a a determination is made as a result of this paragraph, but
b it is then superseded by a return made under this Schedule,
any amount which, as a result of the supersession, is payable or repayable under paragraph 6 or 8 is to be payable or repayable on the filing date for the return.
4 For the purposes of this paragraph “the Revenue determination provision” means section 28C of TMA 1970.

Discovery assessments

23
1 A return made by a person under this Schedule is treated for the purposes of the discovery provisions as if it were an assessment required to be included as part of the person's ordinary tax return (whether or not the person is actually required to deliver an ordinary tax return).
2 References in the discovery provisions to an ordinary tax return for a tax year include a return under this Schedule made in respect of a disposal for the tax year concerned.
3 For the purposes of this paragraph “the discovery provisions” means section 29 of TMA 1970 and the other provisions of that Act relating to that section.

Interpretation

24
1 Expressions have the same meaning in this Part of this Schedule as they have in Part 1 of this Schedule (see paragraph 17).
2 For the purposes of this Part of this Schedule any reference to the last day for delivery of an ordinary tax return is to 31 January in the tax year following the tax year concerned.
3 A return made by a person under this Schedule is to be treated for the purposes of any provision made by or under TMA 1970 as if it contained a self-assessment of an amount of capital gains tax.

SCHEDULE 4 

Avoidance involving profit fragmentation arrangements

Section 16

Introduction and overview

1
1 This Schedule contains provision about countering the tax effects of certain arrangements (“profit fragmentation arrangements”).
2 Profit fragmentation arrangements involve the following parties—
a a person resident in the United Kingdom (“the resident party”),
b an overseas person or entity (“the overseas party”) who is not resident in the United Kingdom, and
c an individual (a “related individual”) who is—
i the resident party,
ii a member of a partnership of which the resident party is a partner, or
iii a participator in a company which is the resident party.
3 An “overseas person or entity” means—
a a person abroad within the meaning given by section 718 of ITA 2007, or
b a company, partnership, trust or other entity or arrangements established or having effect under the law of a country or territory outside the United Kingdom (regardless of whether it has legal personality as a body corporate).
4 Paragraphs 2 to 6 deal with the definition of profit fragmentation arrangements.
5 Paragraph 7 deals with the adjustments which must be made to counteract the effects of such arrangements.
6 Other provisions of this Schedule—
a deal with double taxation and the tax treatment of reimbursement payments (paragraphs 8 and 9), and
b deal with interpretation and commencement (paragraphs 10 to 12).

Profit fragmentation arrangements

2
1 Arrangements are “profit fragmentation arrangements” if—
a provision has been made or imposed as between the resident party and the overseas party by means of the arrangements (“the material provision”),
b as a result of the material provision, value is transferred from the resident party to the overseas party which derives directly or indirectly from the profits of a business chargeable to income tax or corporation tax (see paragraph 3),
c the value transferred is greater than it would have been if it had resulted from provision made or imposed as between independent parties acting at arm's length, and
d any of the enjoyment conditions are met in relation to a related individual (see paragraph 4).
2 But arrangements are not “profit fragmentation arrangements” if—
a the material provision does not result in a tax mismatch for a tax period of the resident party (see paragraphs 5 and 6), or
b it is not reasonable to conclude that the main purpose, or one of the main purposes, for which the arrangements were entered into was to obtain a tax advantage.
3 For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(a) provision made or imposed as between a partnership of which the resident party is a member and the overseas party is to be regarded as provision made or imposed as between the resident party and the overseas party.

Transfer of value deriving directly or indirectly from a business

3
1 In determining whether value deriving directly or indirectly from a business is transferred from the resident party to the overseas party, account is to be taken of any method, however indirect, by which—
a any property or right is transferred or transmitted, or
b the value of any property or right is enhanced or diminished.
2 Sub-paragraph (1) applies in particular to—
a sales, contracts and other transactions made otherwise than for full consideration or for more than full consideration,
b any method by which any property or right, or the control of any property or right, is transferred or transmitted by assigning—
i share capital or other rights in a company,
ii rights in a partnership, or
iii an interest in settled property,
c the creation of an option affecting the disposition of any property or right and the giving of consideration for granting it,
d the creation of a requirement for consent affecting such a disposition and the giving of consideration for granting it,
e the creation of an embargo affecting such a disposition and the giving of consideration for releasing it, and
f the disposal of any property or right on the winding up, dissolution or termination of a company, partnership or trust.
3 Value may be traced through any number of individuals, companies, partnerships, trusts and other entities or arrangements.
4 The property held by a company, partnership, trust or other entity or under any arrangements must be attributed to the shareholders, partners or members, beneficiaries or other participants at each stage on a just and reasonable basis.

The enjoyment conditions

4
1 The enjoyment conditions are met in relation to a related individual if—
a it is reasonable to conclude that some or all of the value transferred as a result of the material provision relates to something done by, or any property or purported right of, the individual, and
b either of the conditions in sub-paragraph (2) is met.
2 The conditions are that—
a under the arrangements—
i the value transferred, or part of it, is so dealt with by any person as to be calculated at some time to enure for the benefit of the individual,
ii the value transferred, or part of it, operates to increase the value of any assets which the individual holds or are held for the benefit of the individual,
iii the individual receives or is entitled to receive any benefit provided or to be provided out of the value transferred or part of it,
iv the individual may become entitled to the beneficial enjoyment of the value transferred, or part of it, if one or more powers are exercised or successively exercised (and for those purposes it does not matter who may exercise the powers or whether they are exercisable with or without the consent of another person), or
v the individual (whether acting alone or together with any other person) is able in any manner to control directly or indirectly the application of the value transferred or part of it, or
b it is reasonable to conclude that the individual (whether acting alone or with any other person) procured the transfer of value from the resident party to the overseas party in such a way as to avoid the conditions in paragraph (a) being met.
3 In determining whether the conditions in sub-paragraph (2)(a) are met in relation to an individual and the value transferred as a result of the material provision, all benefits which may at any time accrue to a person as a result of the value being transferred must be taken into account, irrespective of—
a the nature or form of the benefits, or
b whether the person has legal or equitable rights in respect of the benefits.
4 For the purposes of sub-paragraphs (2) and (3), references to an individual include a reference to any person connected with that individual and, for the purposes of this paragraph, section 993 of ITA 2007 (meaning of “connected”) has effect but as if—
a subsection (4) of that section were omitted, and
b members of a partnership in which the individual is also a member were not “associates” of the individual for the purposes of sections 450 and 451 of CTA 2010 (“control”).
5 For the purposes of sub-paragraph (4), an individual is treated as connected with a person or entity if—
a the individual or a person connected with the individual (whether acting alone or with any other person)—
i is able to secure that the person or entity acts in accordance with the wishes of the individual or any person connected with the individual,
ii is able to acquire rights which would enable the individual or any person connected with the individual to secure that the person or entity acts in accordance with the wishes of the individual or any person connected with the individual, or
iii is able to exercise significant influence over the person or entity (whether or not as a result of a legal entitlement of the individual or any person connected with the individual), or
b the person or entity can reasonably be expected to act, or typically acts, in accordance with the wishes of the individual or a person connected with the individual.

Tax mismatch

5
1 The material provision results in a tax mismatch for a tax period of the resident party if—
a in that period, in relation to a relevant tax, it results in one or both of—
i an increase in the expenses of the resident party for which a deduction is taken into account in calculating the amount of the relevant tax payable by the resident party, or
ii a reduction in the income of the resident party which would otherwise have been taken into account in calculating the amount of the relevant tax payable by the resident party,
b it is reasonable to conclude that—
i the resulting reduction in the amount of the relevant tax which is payable by the resident party exceeds the resulting increase in relevant taxes payable by the overseas party for the period corresponding to the tax period, and
ii the overseas party does not meet the 80% payment test, and
c the results described in paragraphs (a) and (b)(i) are not exempted by sub-paragraph (5).
2 In this Schedule references to “the tax reduction” are to the amount of the excess mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(b)(i).
3 It does not matter whether the tax reduction results from the application of different rates of tax, the operation of a relief, the exclusion of any amount from a charge to tax, or otherwise.
4 “The 80% payment test” is met by the overseas party if the resulting increase in relevant taxes paid by that party as mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(b)(i) is at least 80% of the amount of the resulting reduction in the amount of the relevant tax payable by the resident party.
5 The results described in sub-paragraph (1)(a) and (b)(i) are exempted if they arise solely by reason of—
a contributions paid by an employer under a registered pension scheme, or overseas pension scheme, in respect of any individual,
b a payment to a charity,
c a payment to a person who, on the ground of sovereign immunity, cannot be liable for any relevant tax, or
d a payment to an offshore fund or authorised investment fund—
i which meets the genuine diversity of ownership condition (whether or not a clearance has been given to that effect), or
ii at least 75% of the investors in which are, throughout the accounting period, registered pension schemes, overseas pension schemes, charities or persons who cannot be liable for any relevant tax on the ground of sovereign immunity.
6 In this paragraph and paragraph 6, where the overseas party does not have an actual period for the purposes of relevant taxes which coincides with the tax period of the resident party—
a references to the corresponding period of the overseas party in relation to that tax period are to a notional period of that party for the purposes of relevant taxes that would coincide with that tax period, and
b such apportionments as are just and reasonable are to be made to determine the income or tax liability of that party for that corresponding period.
7 In this paragraph—
  • “relevant tax” means—
    1. income tax,
    2. corporation tax on income,
    3. a sum chargeable under section 269DA of CTA 2010 (surcharge on banking companies) as if it were an amount of corporation tax,
    4. a sum chargeable under section 330(1) of CTA 2010 (supplementary charge in respect of ring fence trades as if it were an amount of corporation tax), or
    5. any non-UK tax on income, and
  • “tax period”, in relation to a resident party, means—
    1. a tax year, or
    2. if the resident party is a company, an accounting period of that party.

Tax mismatch: resulting reduction and resulting increase

6
1 For the purposes of paragraph 5, the resulting reduction in the resident party's liability to a relevant tax for a tax period is—
A × TR
where—
A is the sum of—
  1. if there are expenses within paragraph 5(1)(a)(i), the lower of the amount of expenses and the amount of the deduction mentioned in that provision, and
  2. any reduction in income mentioned in paragraph 5(1)(a)(ii), and
TR is the rate at which, assuming the resident party has profits equal to A chargeable to the relevant tax for the tax period, those profits would be chargeable to that tax.
For this purpose, the rate at which those profits would be chargeable to that tax for that period is the highest rate at which that tax would be chargeable for that period if those profits were added to the resident party's total income.
2 For the purposes of paragraph 5(1)(b) and (4), the resulting increase in relevant taxes payable by the overseas party for the period corresponding to the tax period is any increase in the total amount of relevant taxes that would fall to be paid by that party (and not refunded) assuming that—
a the overseas party's income for that period, in consequence of the material provision were an amount equal to A,
b account were taken of any deduction or relief (other than any qualifying deduction or qualifying loss relief) taken into account by the overseas party in determining that party's actual liability to any relevant taxes in consequence of the material provision, and
c all further reasonable steps were taken—
i under the law of any part of the United Kingdom or any country or territory outside the United Kingdom, and
ii under double taxation arrangements made in relation to any country or territory,
to minimise the amount of tax which would fall to be paid by the overseas party in the country or territory in question (other than steps to secure the benefit of any qualifying deduction or qualifying loss relief).
3 The steps mentioned in sub-paragraph (2)(c) include—
a claiming, or otherwise securing the benefit of, reliefs, deductions, reductions or allowances, and
b making elections for tax purposes.
4 For the purposes of this paragraph, any withholding tax which falls to be paid on payments made to the overseas party is (unless it is refunded) to be treated as tax which falls to be paid by that party (and not the person making the payment).
5 For the purposes of this paragraph, an amount of tax payable by the overseas party is refunded if and to the extent that—
a any repayment of tax, or any payment in respect of a credit for tax, is made to any person, and
b that repayment or payment is directly or indirectly in respect of the whole or part of the amount of tax payable by the overseas party,
but an amount refunded is to be ignored if and to the extent that it results from qualifying loss relief obtained by that party.
6 Where some or all of the overseas party's income is treated for the purposes of a relevant tax charged under the law of a country or territory outside the United Kingdom as the income of a person or persons other than the overseas party, in paragraph 5 and this paragraph—
a references to that party's liability to any tax (however expressed) include a reference to the liabilities of that person or those persons to the relevant tax,
b references to any tax being payable by that party (however expressed) include a reference to the relevant tax being payable by that person or those persons, and
c references to loss relief obtained by that party include a reference to loss relief obtained by that person or those persons,
and sub-paragraph (4) applies to that person or any of those persons as it applies to that party.
7 In this paragraph—
  • “qualifying deduction” means a deduction which—
    1. is made in respect of actual expenditure of the overseas party,
    2. does not arise directly from the arrangements,
    3. is of a kind for which the resident party would have obtained a deduction in calculating that party's liability to any income tax or corporation tax had that party incurred the expenditure in respect of which the deduction is given, and
    4. does not exceed the amount of the deduction that the resident party would have so obtained,
  • “qualifying loss relief” means any means by which a loss might be used for tax purposes to reduce the amount in respect of which the overseas party is liable to tax on the profits of a business, and
  • “relevant tax” has the same meaning as in paragraph 5.

Adjustments required to be made in relation to arrangements

7
1 Adjustments must be made so as to counteract the tax advantages that would (ignoring this Schedule) arise from profit fragmentation arrangements.
2 The adjustments—
a must relate to the expenses, income, profits or losses of the resident party for the tax period in which value is transferred as a result of the material provision,
b must be based on what the value transferred would have been if it had resulted from a provision made or imposed as between independent parties acting at arm's length, and
c must be just and reasonable.
3 References in this paragraph to “the resident party” are references to the resident party at the time at which the material provision is made or imposed.

Double taxation

8
1 This paragraph applies where—
a the resident party has paid a relevant tax by virtue of the application of paragraph 7,
b at any time, the resident party or another person pays—
i a further amount of the relevant tax, or
ii an amount of non-UK tax corresponding to the relevant tax, and
c the result is a double payment of tax calculated by reference to the same income or profits.
2 In order to avoid the double payment of tax, the resident party may make a claim in writing for one or more consequential adjustments to be made in respect of the tax paid mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(a).
3 On a claim under this paragraph an officer of Revenue and Customs must make such of the consequential adjustments claimed (if any) as are just and reasonable.
4 The amount of any consequential adjustments must not exceed the lesser of—
a the tax paid by the resident party as mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(a), and
b the tax paid as mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(b).
5 Consequential adjustments may be made—
a in respect of any tax period,
b by way of an assessment, the modification of an assessment, the amendment of a claim or otherwise, and
c despite any time limit imposed by or under any enactment.

Reimbursement payments ignored for tax purposes

9In calculating income, profits or losses for any tax purposes, no account is to be taken of any amount which is paid (directly or indirectly) by a person for the purposes of meeting or reimbursing the cost of tax charged on the resident party by virtue of the application of paragraph 7.

Treatment of a person who is a member of a partnership

10
1 This paragraph applies where a person is a member of a partnership.
2 Any references in this Schedule to the expenses, income, profits or losses of, or to the adjustment of the expenses, income, profits or losses of, the person includes a reference to the person's share of the expenses, income, profits or losses of, or adjustment of the expenses, income, profits or losses of, the partnership.
3 For this purpose “the person's share” of an amount is determined by apportioning the amount between the members of the partnership on a just and reasonable basis.

PART 3  Commencement and transitional provisions

Commencement

I135This Schedule comes into force on 6 April 2020 (“the commencement date”).

Transitional provisions

I3636Where a period of account of a company begins before and ends on or after the commencement date, it is to be assumed for the purposes of the amendments made by this Schedule—
a that the period (“the straddling period of account”) consists of two separate periods of account—
i the first beginning with the date on which the straddling period of account begins and ending with 5th April 2020, and
ii the second beginning with the commencement date and ending with the date on which the straddling period of account ends, and
b that separate accounts have been drawn up for each of those separate periods in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice.
I3737
1 This paragraph applies if—
a in a tax year ending before the commencement date a company makes a loss in a UK property business that is within the charge to income tax,
b relief for the purposes of income tax is not given to the company for an amount of the loss (“the unrelieved amount”), and
c on the commencement date the UK property business ceases to be within the charge to income tax and comes within the charge to corporation tax as a result of section 5(3A) of CTA 2009.
2 Relief for the purposes of corporation tax is given to the company under this paragraph for the unrelieved amount.
3 For this purpose—
a the unrelieved amount is carried forward to post-commencement accounting periods of the company (for so long as the company continues to carry on the UK property business), and
b the profits of any such accounting period that are mentioned in sub-paragraph (4) are to be reduced by the unrelieved amount (so far as that amount cannot be used under this paragraph to reduce the profits of an earlier period).
4 The profits are—
a profits of the UK property business, and
b profits arising from loan relationships or derivative contracts that the company is a party to for the purposes of that business.
5 In this paragraph “post-commencement accounting period” means an accounting period ending after the commencement date.
I3838
1 This paragraph applies if—
a in the tax year 2019-20 a non-UK resident company is a partner in a firm which—
i carries on a trade, and
ii has untaxed income or relievable losses from a UK property business, and
b accordingly, the company is treated under section 854 of ITTOIA 2005 as having a notional business for the tax year.
2 The basis period for the notional business for the tax year is taken to end with 5th April in that tax year (if it would not otherwise do so).
3 In this paragraph “untaxed income” has the meaning given by section 854(6) of ITTOIA 2005.
I3939
1 This paragraph applies if—
a on or after the commencement date a loss arises in connection with a loan relationship of a company,
b the loss is wholly or partly referable to a time before the commencement date (“the pre-commencement time”), and
c had the loss arisen at the pre-commencement time it would have been brought into account in accordance with Part 3 of ITTOIA 2005 in calculating the profits of the UK property business of the company.
2 Section 327 (disallowance of imported losses etc) does not apply in relation to so much of the loss as is referable to the pre-commencement time.
I4040
1 This paragraph applies for an accounting period (“the loss period”) of a non-UK resident company beginning on or after the commencement date if—
a apart from this paragraph, a loss arising in connection with a derivative contract of the company would by reason of this Schedule fall to be brought into account in accordance with Part 7 of CTA 2009,
b the loss is wholly or partly referable to a time before the commencement date when the derivative contract was not subject to corporation tax, and
c had the loss arisen at that time it would not have been brought into account in accordance with Part 3 of ITTOIA 2005 in calculating the profits of the UK property business of the company.
2 The amounts brought into account for the loss period in accordance with Part 7 of CTA 2009 must be such as to secure that none of the loss referable to that time is treated as arising in the loss period or any other accounting period of the company.
3 For the purposes of this section a loss is referable to a time when a contract is not subject to corporation tax so far as, at the time to which the loss is referable, the company would not have been chargeable to corporation tax on any profits arising from the contract.
4 If the company was not a party to the contract at the time to which the loss is referable, subparagraph (3) applies as if the reference to the company were a reference to the person who at that time was in the same position as respects the contract as is subsequently held by the company.
5 An amount which would be brought into account in accordance with Part 7 of CTA 2009 in respect of a derivative contract apart from this paragraph is treated for the purposes of section 699(1) of CTA 2009 (amounts brought into account under Part 7 excluded from being otherwise brought into account) as if it were so brought into account.
6 Accordingly, that amount must not be brought into account for corporation tax purposes as respects the derivative contract either in accordance with Part 7 of CTA 2009 or otherwise.
7 Section 607ZA of CTA 2009 (debits referable to times before UK property business carried on) has effect subject to this paragraph.
I4141
1 This paragraph applies for an accounting period (“the relevant period”) of a non-UK resident company beginning on or after the commencement date if—
a a profit arising in connection with a loan relationship or derivative contract of the company (“the first instrument”) falls by reason of this Schedule to be brought into account in the relevant period in accordance with Part 5 or Part 7 of CTA 2009,
b an amount of the profit (“the profit amount”) is referable to a time before the commencement date when the first instrument was not subject to corporation tax,
c had the profit arisen at that time it would not have been brought into account in accordance with Part 3 of ITTOIA 2005 in calculating the profits of the UK property business of the company,
d at that time the first instrument and another loan relationship or derivative contract (“the second instrument”) were in a hedging relationship with one another, and
e an amount of a loss (“the loss amount”) arising in connection with the second instrument would (apart from this paragraph) be prevented by reason of paragraph 40 or section 327 of CTA 2009 from being brought into account in the relevant period accordance with Part 5 or Part 7 of CTA 2009.
2 So much of the loss amount as does not exceed the profit amount may be brought into account in the relevant period in accordance with Part 5 or Part 7 of CTA 2009.
3 For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1) the first instrument and the second instrument are in a hedging relationship with one another in so far as one of them is intended to act as a hedge of the company's exposure to changes in the fair value of the other.
4 In a case where the first instrument and the second instrument are in a hedging relationship with one another to a limited extent, subsection (2) has effect in relation to so much of the loss amount as is just and reasonable having regard to the extent of that hedging relationship.
5 For the purposes of this paragraph a profit is referable to a time when the first instrument is not subject to corporation tax so far as, at the time to which the profit is referable, the company would not have been chargeable to corporation tax on any profits arising from the instrument.
6 If the company was not a party to the first instrument at the time to which the profit is referable, subparagraph (5) applies as if the reference to the company were a reference to the person who at that time was in the same position as respects the instrument as is subsequently held by the company.
I4242
1 Where—
a before the commencement date a company is chargeable to income tax on the profits of its UK property business,
b on the commencement date the company becomes chargeable to corporation tax on the profits arising from a derivative contract that it is a party to for the purposes of its UK property business, and
c there is a tax asymmetry in relation to the derivative contact,
the amounts to be brought into account in respect of the derivative contract for the purposes of Part 7 of CTA 2009 are to be adjusted in such manner as is just and reasonable having regard to the tax asymmetry.
2 For the purposes of subparagraph (1) there is a tax asymmetry in relation to the derivative contract if—
a fair value amounts arising in relation to the derivative contract are brought into account in calculating for the purposes of income tax the profits or losses of the company's UK property business for tax years ending before the commencement date, but
b by reason of regulation 9 of the Disregard Regulations, fair value amounts arising in relation to the contract are not brought into account for the purposes of Part 7 of CTA 2009 for accounting periods of the company beginning on or after the commencement date.
3 In this paragraph—
  • “fair value amount” means an amount representing a change in the fair value of a derivative contract which is recognised in determining a company's profit or loss for a period of account in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice;
  • “the Disregard Regulations” means the Loan Relationships and Derivative Contracts (Disregard and Bringing into Account of Profits and Losses) Regulations 2004 (S.I. 2004/3256).
I4343
1 This paragraph applies if—
a an amount representing a change in the fair value of a derivative contract is recognised in determining a company's profit or loss for a period of account beginning before the commencement date, and
b the amount would have been brought into account in calculating for the purposes of income tax the profits or losses of the company's UK property business for a tax year ending before the commencement date but for its having been treated as an amount of a capital nature.
2 In determining the amounts the company is to bring into account for the purposes of Part 7 of CTA 2009 for an accounting period beginning on or after the commencement date—
a the derivative contract is to be treated as being one in relation to which an election has effect under regulation 6A of the Disregard Regulations, and
b if regulation 7 or 8 of those Regulations applies in relation to the derivative contract, the amount referred to in subparagraph (1) is to be treated for the purposes of regulation 10 of those Regulations as being an amount that has previously been excluded from being brought into account for the purposes of Part 7 of CTA 2009 by regulation 7 or 8 (as the case may be).
3 In this paragraph—
  • “the Disregard Regulations” means the Loan Relationships and Derivative Contracts (Disregard and Bringing into Account of Profits and Losses) Regulations 2004 (S.I. 2004/3256);
  • “recognised” means recognised in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice.
I4444
1 This paragraph applies if—
a before 1 January 2015 a company measures a relevant derivative contract at fair value,
b on the commencement date the company comes within the charge to corporation tax by reason of this Schedule, and
c the first relevant period of the company begins on or after the commencement date.
2 The company is to be treated for the purposes of regulation 6A of the Disregard Regulations as if it was a new adopter.
3 In this paragraph—
  • “the Disregard Regulations” means the Loan Relationships and Derivative Contracts (Disregard and Bringing into Account of Profits and Losses) Regulations 2004 (S.I. 2004/3256), and
  • “the first relevant period” and “relevant derivative contract” have the meaning given by regulation 6A(5) of the Disregard Regulations.
4 In determining for the purposes of this paragraph whether, on the commencement date, a company comes within the charge to corporation tax by reason of this Schedule, no account is to be taken of any disposal made by the company before that date where any gain accruing to the company on the disposal would be chargeable to corporation tax as a result of section 2B(4) of TCGA 1992.
I4545
1 This paragraph applies if on the commencement date—
a an asset held by a non-UK resident company for the purposes of its UK property business becomes a chargeable intangible asset in relation to the company by reason of the business coming within the charge to corporation tax, or
b an asset held by a non-UK resident company for the purposes of enabling it to generate other UK property income becomes a chargeable intangible asset in relation to the company by reason of that income coming within the charge to corporation tax.
2 Part 8 of CTA 2009 applies as if—
a the company had acquired the asset immediately on the commencement date, and
b had done so for its accounting value at that time.
3 In this paragraph—
  • “accounting value” and “chargeable intangible asset” have the meaning they have in Part 8 of CTA 2009, and
  • “other UK property income” has the meaning it has in Part 2 of CTA 2009.
I4646
1 An election under section 792 of CTA 2009 (reallocation of degrouping charge within a group) may not be made if—
a subsection (3A) of section 793 applies to B, and
b the relevant time is before 5 July 2016.
2 An election under section 792 of CTA 2009 may not be made if—
a subsection (3B) of section 793 applies to B, and
b the relevant time is before the commencement date.
3 In this paragraph references to “B” and “the relevant time” must be read in accordance with section 792 of CTA 2009.
I4747
1 This paragraph applies if—
a before the commencement date a company incurs expenditure for the purposes of a UK property business it is about to carry on,
b the company begins to carry on the business on or after the commencement date, and
c when the company begins to carry on the business it is non-UK resident.
2 Subsection (7) of section 1147 of CTA 2009 (which enables a company to obtain relief for expenditure on contaminated or derelict land incurred prior to carrying on a UK property business) does not apply in relation to the expenditure.
I4848Where on the commencement date—
a a non-UK resident company ceases to be within the charge to income tax and comes within the charge to corporation tax by reason of this Schedule, and
b an accounting period of the company begins in accordance with section 9(1)(a) of CTA 2009,
the Corporation Tax (Instalment Payments) Regulations 1998 (S.I. 1998/3175) do not have effect in relation to that accounting period.
I4949
1 This paragraph applies if on or after 29 October 2018 a company enters into an arrangement the main purpose or one of the main purposes of which is to secure for any person a tax advantage related to the coming into force of this Schedule.
2 The tax advantage is to be counteracted by means of adjustments.
3 The adjustments may be made (whether by an officer of Revenue and Customs or the person who would obtain the tax advantage) by way of an assessment, the modification of an assessment, an amendment or disallowance of a claim, or otherwise.
4 In this paragraph—
  • “arrangement” includes any agreement, understanding, scheme, transaction or series of transactions (whether or not legally enforceable),
  • “tax advantage” has the meaning given by section 1139 of CTA 2010.

c the tax advantage that the arrangements secure is the benefit of a relief expressly conferred by Part 10 of TIOPA 2010 (corporate interest restriction), and

1 This paragraph applies in relation to a chargeable period which begins before 1 January 2019 and ends on or after that date (“the first straddling period”).
2 The maximum allowance under section 51A of CAA 2001 for the first straddling period is the sum of the maximum allowances that would be found if the following were treated as separate chargeable periods—
a so much of the first straddling period as falls before 1 January 2019;
b so much of the first straddling period as falls on or after that date.
3 But, so far as concerns expenditure incurred before 1 January 2019, the maximum allowance under section 51A of CAA 2001 for the first straddling period is what would be the maximum allowance if the modification made by section 32(1) were not made.

b so much of the second straddling period as falls on or after that date.
3 But, so far as concerns expenditure incurred on or after 1 April 2023, the maximum allowance under section 51A of CAA 2001 for the second straddling period is the maximum allowance, calculated in accordance with sub-paragraph (2), for the period mentioned in paragraph (b) of that sub-paragraph.

Operation of annual investment allowance where restrictions apply

3
1 Paragraphs 1 and 2 apply for the purpose of determining the maximum allowance under section 51K of CAA 2001 (operation of annual investment allowance where restrictions apply) in a case where one or more chargeable periods in which the relevant AIA qualifying expenditure is incurred are chargeable periods within paragraph 1(1) or 2(1).
2 There is to be taken into account for that purpose only chargeable periods of one year or less (whether or not they are chargeable periods within paragraph 1(1) or 2(1)), and, if there is more than one such period, only that period which gives rise to the greatest maximum allowance.
3 Sub-paragraph (4) applies to a chargeable period if—
a it is longer than one year, and
b any part of the chargeable period is within the period beginning with 1 January 2019 and ending with 31 March 2023.
4 For the purposes of sub-paragraph (2) the chargeable period (the “relevant period”) is to be divided into two periods, as follows—
a a chargeable period of one year ending when the relevant period ends, and
b a chargeable period consisting of so much of the relevant period as is not within paragraph (a).
5 Nothing in this paragraph affects the operation of sections 51M and 51N of CAA 2001.

3 But, for the purposes of Chapter 7 of Part 10 of TIOPA 2010 (corporate interest restriction: group-interest and group-EBITDA), the amendment made by this paragraph has effect in relation to periods of account of a worldwide group (within the meaning given by section 480 of that Act) beginning on or after 1 January 2019.

Transitional provisions following repeal of section 53 of FA 2011: introductory

12
1 This paragraph and paragraphs 13 to 17 modify the effect of the change of basis provisions in relation to periods of account of a lessee beginning on or after 1 January 2019 if the lease is one—
a in respect of which, under generally accepted accounting practice, a right-of-use asset falls (or would fall) to be recognised for accounting purposes in the accounts of the lessee for any period of account (whether beginning before or on or after that date), and
b which would not fall to be treated in those accounts as a finance lease if the lessee were required under generally accepted accounting practice to determine whether the lease would fall to be treated in those accounts as a finance lease.
2 In this Part of this Schedule, “the change of basis provisions” means—
a Chapter 17 of Part 2 and Chapter 7 of Part 3 of ITTOIA 2005 (adjustment income), and
b Chapter 14 of Part 3 and sections 261 and 262 of CTA 2009 (adjustment on change of basis).

Cases where asset first recognised for period of account beginning on or after 1 January 2019

13
1 This paragraph applies if the first period of account for which the right-of-use asset falls (or would fall) to be recognised for accounting purposes in the accounts of the lessee begins on or after 1 January 2019 (referred to in the following provisions of this paragraph as “the first period of account”).
2 Any adjustment income or adjustment expense, or any receipt or expense, treated by any of the change of basis provisions as arising in consequence of a change of accounting policy that results in the right-of-use asset being first recognised for accounting purposes is to be treated as arising over a period (“the spreading period”) determined in accordance with the following steps—
  • Step 1 Find for each lease the amount by which the credits exceed the debits (or vice-versa). For this purpose, the credits and the debits are the amounts which, under generally accepted accounting practice—
    1. are taken to equity as adjustments in the accounts of the lessee for the first period of account, and
    2. are in consequence of the change of accounting policy that results in the right-of-use asset being first recognised for accounting purposes in those accounts.
  • Step 2 Calculate for each lease the percentage (“the relevant percentage”) that—
    1. the amount found under Step 1 for the lease bears to
    2. the total of all amounts found under Step 1 (treating such amounts as positive amounts).
  • Step 3 Find for each lease the period which results from applying the relevant percentage to the term of the lease that remains unexpired as at the date on which the first period of account begins. For this purpose, the term of a lease is to be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice as it applies for the first period of account.
  • Step 4 Calculate the sum of all periods found under Step 3.
  • Step 5 The spreading period is the period equal to the sum calculated under Step 4 beginning with the day on which the first period of account begins.
3 An amount to be treated as arising in any period falling wholly or partly in the spreading period is to be determined in proportion to the number of days of the period falling within the spreading period.
4 This paragraph is subject to paragraphs 15 and 16 (transfers of leases and cessation of activities).

Cases where asset first recognised for an earlier period of account

14
1 This paragraph applies if the first period of account for which the right-of-use asset falls (or would fall) to be recognised for accounting purposes in the accounts of the lessee begins before 1 January 2019.
2 The change of basis provisions and this Part of this Schedule have effect—
a as if there were a change of accounting policy with respect of the accounts of the lessee for the first period of account beginning on or after 1 January 2019, and
b as if that period of account were the first period of account for which the right-of-use asset falls (or would fall) to be recognised for accounting purposes in the accounts of the lessee.

Certain cases where there is a transfer of a lease

15
1 This paragraph applies if—
a before the whole of an amount has been treated by paragraph 13 as arising to the lessee, there is a transfer of a lease or part of a lease from the lessee to another person,
b the transferee is connected to the lessee,
c immediately after the transfer, the transferee carries on activities the profits of which are chargeable to income tax or corporation tax, and
d the transfer is not one where it is reasonable to suppose that the transfer is, or arrangements of which the transfer is part are, designed to avoid tax.
2 The amount is to continue to be dealt with in accordance with paragraph 13 but is to be treated as arising to the transferee over so much of the spreading period as falls on or after the date on which the transfer takes place.
3 If, following the transfer, it is necessary to apportion between more than one person an amount treated by paragraph 13 or this paragraph as arising, the apportionment is to be made on a just and reasonable basis.
4 In this paragraph—
  • “connected” is to be read in accordance with sections 993 and 994 of ITA 2007 and sections 1122 and 1123 of CTA 2010, and
  • “the spreading period” has the same meaning as in paragraph 13.

Cases where lessee permanently ceases to carry on activities

16
1 Sub-paragraph (2) applies if—
a before the whole of an amount has been treated by paragraph 13 as arising, the lessee permanently ceases to carry on activities the profits of which are chargeable to income tax or corporation tax, and
b the whole of the amount so far as not treated by paragraph 13 as arising is not treated by paragraph 15(2) as arising to a transferee.
2 The amount so far as not otherwise treated as arising—
a is to be treated as arising to the lessee, and
b is to be brought into account in calculating the profits of the lessee,
immediately before the cessation.

Application of paragraphs 12 to 16 to lease portfolios

17
1 This paragraph applies if a lessee, in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice, prepares accounts by reference to a portfolio of leases having similar characteristics rather than by reference to the individual leases.
2 Paragraphs 12 to 14 and 16 apply to the portfolio (subject to any necessary modifications) in the same way as they apply to a lease.
3 If there is a transfer of the portfolio (or an individual lease within the portfolio), paragraph 15 applies to the transfer (subject to any necessary modifications) in the same way as it applies to the transfer of a lease.

Corporate interest restriction: changes of accounting policy

18
1 In section 426 of TIOPA 2010 (changes of accounting policy), in subsection (3), after paragraph (e) insert—
2 The amendment made by this paragraph has effect in relation to periods of account of a worldwide group (within the meaning given by section 480 of TIOPA 2010) beginning on or after 1 January 2019.

Corporate interest restriction: treatment of certain adjustments

19
1 Sub-paragraph (2) applies if—
a an amount is brought into account for corporation tax purposes for a period of account beginning on or after 1 January 2019 as a receipt or expense treated by any of the change of accounting policy provisions as arising to a company which is a lessee,
b the receipt or expense is treated as arising to the company in consequence of a change of accounting policy relating to a lease in respect of which the company is the lessee,
c under the old accounting policy, the lease fell to be treated as a finance lease in the accounts of the company, and
d under the new accounting policy, the lease would fall to be treated as a right-of-use lease in those accounts but for—
i the short term of the lease, or
ii the low value of the leased asset.
2 For the purposes of Part 10 of TIOPA 2010 (corporate interest restriction)—
a if the amount is brought into account as an expense, “tax-interest expense amount” (see section 382 of that Act) does not include that amount;
b if the amount is brought into account as a receipt, “tax-interest income amount” (see section 385 of that Act) does not include that amount.
3 This paragraph has effect in relation to adjustments to which the financial statements of a worldwide group are treated by section 426 of TIOPA 2010 (changes in accounting policy) as subject in the same way as it has effect in relation to adjustments made under the change of accounting policy provisions by a company and accordingly—
a if the amount is brought into account as an expense, “relevant expense amount” (see section 411(1) of that Act) does not include that amount;
b if the amount is brought into account as a receipt, “relevant income amount” (see section 411(2) of that Act) does not include that amount.
4 In this paragraph—
  • “the change of accounting policy provisions” means Chapter 14 of Part 3 and sections 261 and 262 of CTA 2009 (adjustment on change of basis), and
  • “right-of-use lease” has the meaning given by section 494 of TIOPA 2010 (other interpretation).

SCHEDULE 15 

Oil activities: transferable tax history

Section 37

PART 1  Election to transfer tax history

Entitlement to make a TTH election

1This Schedule applies if, on or after 1 November 2018, the OGA gives consent for a company (the “seller”) to sell an interest in a UK oil licence to another company (the “purchaser”).
2
1 On or after the licence transfer date, the seller and purchaser may jointly make a TTH election in respect of an interest (“the TTH asset”) in a transferred oil field (the “TTH oil field”).
2 A “TTH election” is an election for—
a an amount of the seller's ring fence profits (the “total TTH amount”) to be treated, in accordance with the provisions of this Schedule, as if it were an amount of the purchaser's profits (instead of the seller's profits), and
b a corresponding amount of the seller's adjusted ring fence profits to be so treated for the purpose of Chapter 6 of Part 8 of CTA 2010 (supplementary charge).

PART 2  The total TTH amount

The total TTH amount

3
1 The total TTH amount may comprise—
a an amount representing the seller's eligible ring fence profits for the reference accounting period, and
b amounts representing the seller's eligible ring fence profits for so many of the preceding accounting periods ending on or after 17 April 2002 as the seller and purchaser may determine.
2 Sub-paragraph (1) is subject to—
a paragraph 4 (limits on total TTH amount),
b paragraph 11 (consecutive accounting periods), and
c paragraph 12 (the transferred profits amount for an accounting period).
3 See—
a paragraph 13 for the meaning of “eligible ring fence profits”, and
b paragraph 102 for the meaning of “reference accounting period” in relation to the seller.

Limits on total TTH amount

4The total TTH amount must not exceed the lower of—
a the uplifted decommissioning costs estimate in relation to the TTH asset, and
b the total amount of the seller's eligible ring fence profits for the period—
i beginning with 17 April 2002, and
ii ending at the end of the reference accounting period.

The “uplifted decommissioning costs estimate”

5To determine the “uplifted decommissioning costs estimate” in relation to the TTH asset—
a determine the transferred proportion of the net cost amount (see paragraphs 6 and 7),
b allocate the relevant proportion of the amount determined under paragraph (a) to the TTH asset (see paragraph 8),
c adjust the allocated amount in accordance with paragraph 9, and
d double the adjusted amount.
6
1 The “net cost amount” is the appropriate DSA estimate of the decommissioning costs for the TTH oil field.
2 A “DSA estimate” is an estimate approved for the purposes of a qualifying decommissioning security agreement.
3 If there is only one qualifying decommissioning security agreement relating to the TTH oil field, the “appropriate DSA estimate” is the most recent DSA estimate approved for the purposes of that agreement within the relevant period.
4 If there is more than one qualifying decommissioning security agreement relating to the TTH oil field, the “appropriate DSA estimate” is the lowest of the DSA estimates approved for the purposes of any of those agreements within the relevant period.
5 For the purposes of sub-paragraphs (3) and (4), the “relevant period” is the period of 12 months ending with—
a the date on which the TTH election is made, or
b in a case where the hive down condition (see paragraph 56(5)) is met, the date on which the seller and the purchaser cease to be associated with one another.
7The “transferred proportion” of the net cost amount is the proportion of the decommissioning costs for the TTH oil field that, under the qualifying decommissioning security agreement for the purposes of which the appropriate DSA estimate is approved, is allocated to—
a the seller, in the case of an agreement entered into before the sale of the interest in the UK oil licence concerned, or
b the purchaser, in the case of an agreement entered into on or after that date.
8In paragraph 5(b), the “relevant proportion” means—
a the proportion that the interest in the TTH oil field which is the TTH asset bears to—
i the seller's other interests in the TTH oil field, if paragraph 7(a) applies, or
ii the purchaser's other interests in the TTH oil field, if paragraph 7(b) applies, or
b if the proportion cannot reasonably be determined in accordance with paragraph (a), such other proportion determined on a just and reasonable basis.
9
1 To adjust the allocated amount for the purposes of paragraph 5(c)—
a disregard the adjustments listed in sub-paragraph (2) made, for the purposes of calculating the net cost amount, in accordance with the terms of the decommissioning security agreement, and
b if, in making that calculation in accordance with those terms, the relevant proportion of the estimate of the decommissioning costs is increased by an amount to take account of inflation, disregard the amount (if any) by which the increase exceeds the standard inflation adjustment amount.
2 The adjustments to be disregarded are—
a any discount applied by reference to the period of time expected to elapse before the decommissioning costs are payable in relation to the TTH oil field, and
b any adjustment made for the purposes of taking account of the risk that the decommissioning costs for the TTH oil field will exceed the estimate of those costs.
3 The “standard inflation adjustment amount” means the amount (if any) by which the relevant proportion of the estimate of the decommissioning costs for the TTH oil field would be increased if an adjustment for the purposes of taking account of inflation were made on the basis specified by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs for the purposes of this paragraph.
10
1 A “decommissioning security agreement” is an agreement entered into for the purpose of—
a determining the costs of decommissioning an oil field, and
b providing security for—
i the performance of obligations under an abandonment programme for the purposes of section 38A of the Petroleum Act 1998 (whether or not such a programme has been approved at the time the agreement is entered into), or
ii the costs of decommissioning plant or machinery which is, or forms part of, a relevant onshore installation.
2 A decommissioning security agreement is “qualifying” for the purposes of this Schedule if—
a the seller is a party to the agreement,
b at least one of the parties is not associated with the seller, and
c the estimate approved for the purposes of the agreement is a reasonable estimate of the decommissioning costs for the oil field.
3 In a case where the corporate restructuring condition (see paragraph 56(2)) is met, sub-paragraph (2)(a) has effect as if the reference to the seller were a reference to a party to the third party election (as defined in that paragraph).
4 In sub-paragraph (1)—
  • “abandonment programme” has the meaning given by section 29 of the Petroleum Act 1998, and
  • “relevant onshore installation” has the same meaning as in section 163 of CAA 2001 (see subsection (3C) of that section).
5 See paragraph 98 of this Schedule and section 271 of CTA 2010 for further provision about the meaning of “associated companies”.

Consecutive accounting periods

11
1 The total TTH amount may not include an amount representing the eligible ring fence profits for a particular accounting period (other than the reference accounting period) unless it also includes an amount representing the eligible ring fence profits for the next following qualifying accounting period.
2 An accounting period is “qualifying” for the purposes of this Schedule if the seller has eligible ring fence profits for that period.

The transferred profits amount

12
1 The transferred profits amount for an accounting period, other than the earliest period, must be an amount equal to the amount of the seller's eligible ring fence profits for the period.
2 The transferred profits amount for the earliest period must be an amount equal to the amount of the seller's eligible ring fence profits for that period, so far as that amount does not exceed the TTH balance for the earliest period.
3 The “TTH balance” for the earliest period is an amount equal to—
a the total TTH amount, less
b the transferred profits amounts for each later accounting period.
4 In this paragraph, “earliest period” means the earliest accounting period for which there is a transferred profits amount.

“Eligible ring fence profits”

13Ring fence profits of an accounting period are “eligible” for the purposes of a TTH election if, as at the date the TTH election is made—
a corporation tax is charged on the profits of that period at the main ring fence profits rate,
b neither section 279B nor section 279C of CTA 2010 (marginal relief) applies in relation to the seller in that period,
c the seller's liability to corporation tax in respect of the profits has been discharged in full, and
d the total TTH amount for any other TTH election made by the seller (whether made with the purchaser or with another person) does not include an amount representing those profits.
14In determining, for the purposes of this Schedule, the amount of the seller's eligible ring fence profits for an accounting period that falls partly before 17 April 2002, the amount of the seller's eligible ring fence profits for that period is to be reduced by the proportion which the part of the accounting period falling before that date bears to the whole of the accounting period.

PART 3  Effect of a TTH election on the seller

Application of this Part

15This Part applies if—
a the seller and the purchaser have jointly made a TTH election in respect of the TTH asset, and
b the TTH election has been approved by an officer of Revenue and Customs (see paragraphs 61 and 62).

Effect of a TTH election: corporation tax

16
1 Sub-paragraphs (2) and (3) apply if the seller makes a loss in a trade in an accounting period.
2 For the purposes of section 37(3)(b) of CTA 2010 (including for the purposes of that provision as it has effect under the other trade loss relief provisions), the seller's total profits of a pre-transfer accounting period are treated as being—
a the seller's total profits for that period, less
b the transferred profits amount for that period.
3 For the purposes of section 42 of CTA 2010, the seller's profits of a ring fence trade of a pre-transfer accounting period are treated as being—
a the seller's ring fence profits for that period, less
b the transferred profits amount for that period.
17The transferred profits amount for an accounting period is to be disregarded for the purposes of the application of any provision of the Corporation Tax Acts by reference to which the seller would (apart from this paragraph) be entitled to relief from, or a repayment of, corporation tax.
18
1 Paragraphs 16 and 17 are subject to this paragraph.
2 If, on or after the licence transfer date, the seller's eligible ring fence profits for a pre-transfer accounting period are reduced to an amount which is lower than the transferred profits amount for that period—
a the seller is treated as incurring a loss in a ring fence trade, of an amount equal to the difference, for the accounting period, and
b paragraph 17 does not apply to the difference.

Effect of a TTH election: supplementary charge

19Paragraphs 20 and 21 apply in relation to an accounting period for which there is a transferred profits amount.
20
1 The transferred adjusted ring fence profits amount for the accounting period is to be disregarded for the purposes of any provision of the Corporation Tax Acts by reference to which the seller would (apart from this paragraph) be entitled to a repayment of supplementary charge.
2 The “transferred adjusted ring fence profits amount” is—
a in the case of an accounting period other than the earliest period, the amount of the seller's eligible adjusted ring fence profits for the period;
b in the case of the earliest period, an amount equal to the transferred proportion of the seller's eligible adjusted ring fence profits for the period.
21
1 For the purposes of the application of any provision of Part 4 or Part 8 of CTA 2010 in relation to the seller—
a the amount of each ARFP component, or (in the case of the earliest period) an amount equal to the transferred proportion of each ARFP component, for the accounting period is to be disregarded, and
b in the case of the earliest period, references in those provisions to an ARFP component for the accounting period are to be treated as references to the retained proportion of that ARFP component for the period.
2 “ARFP component”, in relation to an accounting period, means—
a the financing costs for the period that are left out of account for the purposes of the assumption mentioned in section 330(3) of CTA 2010, and
b the amount of any reduction of the seller's adjusted ring fence profits by reference to the cumulative total amount of activated allowance for the period under any of the following provisions of CTA 2010—
i section 332E (investment allowance),
ii section 356D (onshore allowance), and
iii section 356JG (cluster area allowance).
3 See paragraph 17 for provision about disregarding the transferred profits amount for an accounting period.
4 Sub-paragraph (1) does not apply in relation to the application of any provision for the purposes of determining the seller's eligible adjusted ring fence profits for an accounting period for the purposes of this Schedule.
22
1 For the purposes of paragraphs 20(2) and 21(1)—
a “earliest period” has the meaning given by paragraph 12(4),
b the “transferred proportion” is the same as the proportion that the transferred profits amount for the accounting period bears to the seller's ring fence profits amount for the period, and
c the “retained proportion” is the same as the proportion that the retained profits amount for the accounting period bears to the seller's ring fence profits amount for the period.
2 In sub-paragraph (1)(c), “retained profits amount” means the amount of the difference between the amount of the seller's ring fence profits for the earliest period and the transferred profits amount for that period.
3 For the purposes of this Schedule, adjusted ring fence profits of an accounting period are “eligible” if—
a an amount is charged on the profits under section 330(1) of CTA 2010 (supplementary charge in respect of ring fence trades), and
b as at the TTH election is made, the seller's liability to tax under that section in respect of the adjusted ring fence profits has been discharged in full.

PART 4  Effect of a TTH election on the purchaser

Application of this Part

23This Part applies if—
a the seller and the purchaser have jointly made a TTH election in respect of the TTH asset,
b the TTH election has been approved by an officer of Revenue and Customs (see paragraphs 61 and 62),
c the winning of oil from the TTH oil field has permanently ceased, and
d in a post-acquisition accounting period (the “loss period”)—
i the purchaser makes a loss in a ring fence trade,
ii the loss is a decommissioning loss, and
iii the purchaser holds, for the loss period, an activated TTH amount (see Parts 5 and 6).
24In paragraph 23(d)(ii), “decommissioning loss” means a loss in respect of which—
a a claim for relief under section 37 of CTA 2010 is made by the purchaser by virtue of section 39 or 40 of that Act (relief for trade losses: terminal losses and ring fence trades), or
b relief is given under section 42 of CTA 2010 (ring fence trades: further extension of period for relief).

Effect of trade loss relief provisions

25
1 The total activated TTH amount held by the purchaser for the loss period is to be applied in accordance with sub-paragraph (2)(b) or (3)(b).
2 The purchaser's total profits of a pre-acquisition accounting period are to be treated, for the purposes of section 37(3)(b) of CTA 2010 (including for the purposes of that provision as it has effect under the other trade loss relief provisions) as being the total of—
a the amount of the purchaser's total profits for that period, and
b if and so far as the loss in respect of which relief is claimed exceeds the amount mentioned in paragraph (a), the activated transferred profits amount for that period.
3 The purchaser's profits of a ring fence trade of a pre-acquisition accounting period are to be treated for the purposes of section 42 of CTA 2010, as being the total of—
a the purchaser's profits of a ring fence trade for that period, and
b if and so far as the loss in respect of which relief is claimed exceeds the amount mentioned in paragraph (a), the activated transferred profits amount for that period.
4 The “activated transferred profits amount” for a pre-acquisition accounting period means the amount allocated to the period under paragraph 44 for the purposes of the application of this paragraph in relation to the loss period.
5 See paragraphs 38 to 42 for provision about the “total activated TTH amount”.

Repayment of supplementary charge

26
1 This paragraph applies where, in respect of a loss period, an activated transferred profits amount for a pre-acquisition accounting period is to be applied in accordance with paragraph 25(2)(b) or (3)(b).
2 A repayment of tax to be determined as if—
a an amount had been charged under section 330(1) of CTA 2010 in respect of the activated ARFP amount for the pre-acquisition accounting period,
b that amount had been charged on, and paid by, the purchaser (instead of the seller), and
c the transferred adjusted ring fence profits amount for the pre-acquisition accounting period were recalculated in accordance with paragraph 50.
3 See paragraph 53 for provision about the “activated ARFP amount”.
27
1 In this Schedule, references to the transferred adjusted ring fence profits amount for a pre-acquisition accounting period of the purchaser are references to—
a the transferred adjusted ring fence profits amount (see paragraph 20(2)) for the accounting period of the seller which coincides with the pre-acquisition accounting period of the purchaser, or
b if there is no coinciding accounting period of the seller, the overlapping proportion of the transferred adjusted ring fence profits amount for each accounting period of the seller that overlaps with the pre-acquisition accounting period of the purchaser.
2 The overlapping proportion, in relation to an accounting period of the seller, is the same as the proportion that the part of the seller's accounting period that overlaps with the pre-acquisition accounting period of the purchaser bears to the whole of the seller's accounting period.

Supplementary provision: repayment and enquiries

28For the purposes of section 59D(2) of TMA 1970 (repayment of excess corporation tax), the following amounts paid by the seller are treated as having been paid by the purchaser—
a the amount of corporation tax in respect of an activated transferred profits amount, for a pre-acquisition accounting period, that is applied in accordance with 25(2)(b) or (3)(b), and
b the amount of supplementary charge in respect of the transferred adjusted ring fence profits amount for that accounting period.
29
1 An enquiry under Part 4 of Schedule 18 to FA 1998 into a tax return for the accounting period in which the claim under section 37 of CTA 2010 in respect of a decommissioning loss in a loss period is made (see paragraphs 23 and 24), or an enquiry into the claim under Schedule 1A to TMA 1970, extends to—
a the decommissioning expenditure amount attributable to the TTH oil field for any accounting period,
b the tracked profit or loss amount attributable to the TTH asset for any accounting period, and
c whether a TTH activation event has occurred in relation to the TTH asset.
2 See Part 5 for provision about “the decommissioning expenditure amount” and a TTH activation event, and paragraphs 64 and 65 for provision about the “tracked profit and loss amount”.

PART 5  TTH activation

TTH activation event

30
1 A TTH activation event occurs in relation to the TTH asset if—
a the winning of oil from the TTH oil field has permanently ceased, and
b at the end of a post-acquisition accounting period of the purchaser, the total decommissioning expenditure amount exceeds the total net profits amount.
2 The “total decommissioning expenditure amount” is the relevant proportion of the total of the decommissioning expenditure amounts (see paragraph 31) attributable to the TTH oil field, in respect of which an allowance or allocation is made to the purchaser, for—
a the period mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(b), and
b each preceding accounting period which is a post-acquisition accounting period.
3 The “total net profits amount” is the aggregate of the tracked profit or loss amounts (see paragraphs 64 and 65) attributable to the TTH asset for—
a the period mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(b), and
b each preceding accounting period which is a post-acquisition accounting period.
4 But if the aggregate of the tracked profit or loss amounts attributable to the TTH asset for the periods mentioned in sub-paragraph (3)(a) and (b) is a negative amount, the total net profits amount is nil.
5 In this paragraph, “the relevant proportion” means the proportion that the interest in the TTH oil field which is the TTH asset bears to the purchaser's other interests in the TTH oil field or, if the proportion cannot reasonably be determined on that basis, such other proportion determined on a just and reasonable basis.

Decommissioning expenditure amount

31The “decommissioning expenditure amount” attributable to the TTH oil field for an accounting period, is the total of each of the following amounts attributable to the field for the post-acquisition accounting period—
a the special allowance amount,
b the post-cessation expenditure amount, and
c the restoration expenditure amount.
32
1 The “special allowance amount” for an accounting period is the amount of a special allowance made under section 164 of CAA 2001 (general decommissioning expenditure incurred before cessation of ring fence trade) for that period.
2 A special allowance amount is attributable to the TTH oil field so far as the expenditure in respect of which the allowance is made is expenditure incurred on decommissioning plant or machinery brought into use for the purposes of oil-related activities carried on wholly or partly in direct connection with the field.
33
1 The “post-cessation expenditure amount” for an accounting period is the amount that, under section 165(3)(a) of CAA 2001 (general decommissioning expenditure after ceasing ring fence trade), is allocated to the appropriate pool for that period.
2 A post-cessation expenditure amount is attributable to the TTH oil field so far as the general decommissioning expenditure in respect of which the amount is allocated is expenditure incurred on decommissioning plant or machinery brought into use for the purposes of oil-related activities carried on wholly or partly in direct connection with the field.
34
1 The “restoration expenditure amount” for an accounting period is the amount that is treated as qualifying expenditure under section 416ZA of CAA 2001 (ring fence trades: expenditure on site restoration) for that period.
2 A restoration expenditure amount is attributable to the TTH oil field if the qualifying expenditure is incurred in relation to the field.
35For the purposes of paragraphs 32(2), 33(2) and 34(2), expenditure for an accounting period is to be apportioned between the TTH oil field and other oil fields (or parts of oil fields) on a just and reasonable basis.

PART 6  Allocation of activated TTH amount

Application of this Part

36This Part of this Schedule applies if a TTH activation event occurs in relation to the TTH asset.
37In this Schedule—
a “first activation period” means the first post-acquisition accounting period of the purchaser in which a TTH activation event occurs, and
b “post-activation period” means a subsequent accounting period of the purchaser.

“Total activated TTH amount”

38The “total activated TTH amount” held by the purchaser for a loss period which is the first activation period is the lower of—
a the amount by which, at the end of that period, the total decommissioning expenditure amount exceeds the total net profits amount (see paragraph 30), and
b the total TTH amount.
39The “total activated TTH amount” held by the purchaser for a loss period which is a post-activation period is the lower of—
a the adjusted activated TTH amount (see paragraphs 40 to 42), and
b the closing balance of the total TTH amount for the immediately preceding accounting period (see paragraph 49).
40
1 This paragraph applies if, in relation to a post-activation period—
a the relevant proportion of the decommissioning expenditure amount attributable to the TTH oil field for that period, exceeds
b the tracked profit or loss amount attributable to the TTH asset for that period.
2 The “additional activated TTH amount” for the post-activation period is an amount equal to the excess.
3 For the purposes of paragraph 39, the adjusted activated TTH amount is the total of—
a the closing balance of activated TTH for the immediately preceding accounting period, and
b the additional activated TTH amount for the post-activation period.
4 In this paragraph and in paragraph 41, “relevant proportion” has the same meaning as in paragraph 30(5).
41
1 This paragraph applies if, in relation to a post-activation period—
a the tracked profit or loss amount attributable to the TTH asset for that period, exceeds
b the relevant proportion of the decommissioning expenditure amount attributable to the TTH oil field for that period.
2 The “TTH reduction amount” for the post-activation period is an amount equal to the excess.
3 If the TTH reduction amount is less than the closing balance amount, the adjusted activated TTH amount for the purposes of paragraph 39 is an amount equal to the difference.
4 If the TTH reduction amount is equal to, or greater than, the closing balance amount, the adjusted activated TTH amount for the purposes of paragraph 39 is nil.
5 In this paragraph, references to the “closing balance amount” are references to the closing balance of activated TTH for the accounting period immediately preceding the post-activation period.
42If neither paragraph 40 nor paragraph 41 applies in relation to a post-activation period, the “adjusted activated TTH amount” for the purposes of paragraph 39 is—
a an amount equal to the closing balance of activated TTH for the immediately preceding accounting period, if it is greater than nil, or
b nil, if the closing balance of activated TTH for the immediately preceding accounting period is nil or a negative amount.

Allocation of activated TTH to an accounting period

43Paragraph 44 applies for the purposes of paragraph 25 (effect of trade loss relief provisions in relation to the purchaser).
44The total activated TTH amount for a loss period is to be allocated, for the purposes of the application of paragraph 25 in relation to that loss period, to pre-acquisition accounting periods of the purchaser as follows—
  • Step 1 Take the most recent pre-acquisition accounting period for which there is an unused transferred profits amount which is greater than nil.
  • Step 2 Allocate to that pre-acquisition accounting period an amount equal to the lower of—
    1. the unused transferred profits amount, and
    2. the total activated TTH amount held by the purchaser for the loss period.
  • Step 3 Allocate to the next most recent pre-acquisition accounting period an amount equal to the lower of—
    1. the transferred profits amount for that period, and
    2. the available activated TTH amount for the loss period.
  • Step 4 Repeat Step 3 (taking later pre-acquisition accounting periods before earlier ones) until the amount given by paragraph (a) or (b) is nil.

Transferred profits amount for a pre-acquisition accounting period

45
1 In this Schedule, references to the transferred profits amount for a pre-acquisition accounting period of the purchaser are references to—
a the transferred profits amount for the accounting period of the seller which coincides with the pre-acquisition accounting period of the purchaser, or
b if there is no coinciding accounting period of the seller, the overlapping proportion of the transferred profits amount for each accounting period of the seller that overlaps with the pre-acquisition accounting period of the purchaser.
2 The overlapping proportion, in relation to an accounting period of the seller, is the same as the proportion that the part of the seller's accounting period that overlaps with the pre-acquisition accounting period of the purchaser bears to the whole of the seller's accounting period.

“Unused transferred profits amount”

46
1 This paragraph applies for the purposes of Steps 1 and 2 of paragraph 44.
2 If the loss period is the first activation period, the reference to the “unused transferred profits amount” for a pre-acquisition accounting period is a reference to the transferred profits amount for that period.
3 If the loss period is a post-activation period, the reference to the “unused transferred profits amount” for a pre-acquisition accounting period is a reference to the amount equal to—
a the transferred profits amount for the pre-acquisition accounting period, less
b the total of the amounts applied for the pre-acquisition accounting period in accordance with paragraph 25, for the purposes of the application of that paragraph in relation to the first activation period or an earlier post-activation period.

“Available activated TTH amount”

47
1 This paragraph applies for the purposes of allocating an amount to a pre-acquisition accounting period under Step 3 of paragraph 44.
2 The “available activated TTH amount” held by the purchaser for the loss period, is an amount equal to—
a the total activated TTH amount for the period, less
b the total of the activated transferred profits amounts allocated under paragraph 44 to later pre-acquisition accounting periods.
3 In sub-paragraph (2)(b) the reference to “later pre-acquisition accounting periods” is a reference to pre-acquisition accounting periods that begin after the period mentioned in sub-paragraph (1).

“Closing balance of activated TTH”

48
1 The closing balance of activated TTH for the first activation period, or a post-activation period in relation to which paragraph 40, 41(3) or 42 applies, the closing balance of activated TTH for the period is—
a the total activated TTH amount held by the purchaser for that period, less
b the amount applied in accordance with paragraph 25 for that period.
2 If paragraph 41(4) applies in relation to a post-activation period, the closing balance of activated TTH for the period is the negative amount determined by deducting—
a the TTH reduction amount for that period, from
b the closing balance of activated TTH for the immediately preceding accounting period.

“Closing balance of the total TTH amount”

49The closing balance of the total TTH amount for an accounting period is—
a the total TTH amount, less
b the total of the amounts (if any) applied in accordance with paragraph 25 for that accounting period and earlier accounting periods.

PART 7  Supplementary charge: recalculation of adjusted ring fence profits

Recalculation: steps

50
1 This paragraph applies for the purposes of recalculating the transferred adjusted ring fence profits amount for the pre-acquisition accounting period mentioned in paragraph 26(1) (for the purposes of paragraph 26(2)(c)).
2 The recalculated transferred adjusted ring fence profits amount for the period is the aggregate of—
a the reduced ARFP amount for the pre-acquisition period (see paragraphs 51 and 52), and
b the adjusted finance cost amount for the loss period mentioned in paragraph 26(1) (see paragraph 55).
3 But if the amount given by taking the steps in sub-paragraph (2) is a negative amount, the recalculated transferred adjusted ring fence profits amount is nil.

“Reduced ARFP amount”

51
1 To determine the “reduced ARFP amount” for a pre-acquisition accounting period—
a take the activated ARFP amount for the period, and
b reduce that amount by the amount applied, in relation to the loss period mentioned in paragraph 26(1), in accordance with paragraph 25(2)(b) or (3)(b) for the pre-acquisition accounting period.
2 This paragraph is subject to paragraph 52.
52
1 This paragraph (instead of paragraph 51) applies if the percentage specified in section 330(1) of CTA 2010 for the pre-acquisition accounting period mentioned in paragraph 26(1) is greater than 20%.
2 To determine the “reduced ARFP amount” for the pre-acquisition accounting period—
a calculate the total of—
i the activated ARFP amount for the period, and
ii the ARFP uplift amount for the period (see paragraph 54),
b reduce the amount given by paragraph (a) by the amount applied, in relation to the loss period mentioned in paragraph 26(1), in accordance with paragraph 25(2)(b) or (3)(b) for the pre-acquisition accounting period.

“Activated ARFP amount”

53
1 The “activated ARFP amount” for a pre-acquisition accounting period is the amount equal to—
( A / T ) × ARFP
where—
A is the amount applied, in relation to the loss period, in accordance with paragraph 25(2)(b) or (3)(b) for the pre-acquisition accounting period,
T is the unused transferred profits amount for that period, and
2 In sub-paragraph (1), “unused transferred profits amount” has the same meaning as it has for the purposes of Steps 1 and 2 of paragraph 44 (see paragraph 46).
3 Sub-paragraph (4) applies if, in respect of an earlier loss period—
a an activated transferred profits amount for the pre-acquisition accounting period mentioned in paragraph 26(1) is applied in accordance with paragraph 25(2)(b) or (3)(b), and
b a corresponding repayment is determined under paragraph 26(2) (an “earlier repayment”).
4 The amount of the transferred adjusted ring fence profits for the pre-acquisition accounting period is treated, for the purposes of sub-paragraph (1), as being reduced by an amount equal to the total of the activated ARFP amounts for that period for the purposes of each earlier repayment.

“ARFP uplift amount”

54The “ARFP uplift amount” for a pre-acquisition accounting period is the amount equal to—
( ( SC − 20 % ) / SC ) × A
where—
SC is the percentage specified in section 330(1) of CTA 2010 for the pre-acquisition accounting period, and
A is the amount applied, in relation to the loss period, in accordance with paragraph 25(2)(b) or (3)(b) for the pre-acquisition accounting period.

“Adjusted finance cost amount”

55The “adjusted finance cost amount” for a loss period is the amount equal to—
( A / L ) × FC
where—
A is the amount applied, in relation to the loss period, in accordance with paragraph 25(2)(b) or (3)(b) for the pre-acquisition accounting period,
L is the amount of the decommissioning loss in the loss period (see paragraph 23(d)(i) and (ii)), and
FC is the lower of—
  1. the amount of the financing costs brought into account under section 330(3) of CTA 2010 for the purposes of determining the purchaser's adjusted ring fence profits for the loss period, and
  2. the amount of the purchaser's loss in the ring fence trade for the loss period (see paragraph 23(d)(i)).

PART 8  TTH elections: conditions and procedure

Election conditions: associated companies

56

5 The “hive down” condition is met for the purposes of a TTH election if the seller and purchaser—
a are associated with one another on the licence transfer date, but
b before the end of the period of 90 days beginning with that date, the purchaser ceases to be associated with—
i the seller, and
ii any other company that is associated with the seller.
6 See paragraph 98 of this Schedule and section 271 of CTA 2010 for further provision about the meaning of “associated companies”.

d any decommissioning security agreement which relates to the TTH oil field and the seller, and any estimate of the decommissioning costs for the field determined for the purposes of any such agreement, and
e any decommissioning relief agreement to which the seller is a party (see paragraph 57).

Timing of an enquiry: cases where the corporate restructuring condition is met

60
1 This paragraph applies if—
a a TTH election is made, and
b the corporate restructuring condition or the hive down condition is met in relation to that election.
2 Paragraph 5(2)(a) of Schedule 1A to TMA 1970 (power to enquire into claims: time limits) has effect in relation to the election as if the reference in that provision to the day on which the claim was made were a reference to—

b in a case where the corporate restructuring condition is met by reference to paragraph 56(2)(b)(ii), the day on which the seller and purchaser cease to be associated with one another;
c in a case where the hive down condition is met, the day on which the seller and the purchaser ceased to be associated with one another.

PART 9  TTH elections: approval

Approval notice

61An officer of Revenue and Customs may approve the TTH election by giving notice in writing (an “approval notice”) to the seller and the purchaser.

Deemed approval

62
1 If no approval notice or enquiry notice is given, in respect of the TTH election, before the end of the period mentioned in paragraph 5(2) of Schedule 1A to TMA 1970 (time limit for opening an enquiry), the election is deemed to have been approved by an officer of Revenue and Customs at the end of that period.
2 In sub-paragraph (1), the reference to an “enquiry notice” is a reference to a notice under paragraph 5(1) of Schedule 1A to TMA 1970 (intention to enquire into a claim or election).

Conditions of approval

63The purchaser is required, as a condition of the approval of the election—
a to comply with the profit tracking requirements in relation to—
i the accounting period in which the interest in a UK oil licence, referred to in paragraph 1, is acquired by the purchaser, and
ii each subsequent accounting period; and
b to keep and preserve records, in accordance with such requirements as may be specified by an officer of Revenue and Customs, for the purposes of giving effect to this Schedule.

Profit tracking requirements

64
1 The purchaser complies with the profit tracking requirements in relation to an accounting period if the purchaser's company tax return for the period is accompanied by a statement of the tracked profit or loss amount for the period.
2 The “tracked profit or loss amount” for an accounting period is the amount of profit or loss that is attributable to the TTH asset, excluding the relevant proportion of the decommissioning expenditure amount attributable to the TTH oil field, for that period.
3 In sub-paragraph 64(2), “relevant proportion” has the same meaning as in paragraph 30 (see paragraph 30(5)).
65
1 For the purposes of determining the tracked profit or loss amount for an accounting period—
a just and reasonable apportionments are to be made of the receipts, expenses, assets and liabilities of—
i the purchaser, and
ii any other company that is associated with the purchaser and has an interest in the TTH asset (including an interest in a share in the oil won and saved in the TTH oil field), and
b for the purposes of paragraph (a), an officer of Revenue and Customs may require that financing costs for an accounting period are to be apportioned on such basis as the officer may reasonably specify before the beginning of that period.
2 In this paragraph “financing costs” has the meaning it has for the purposes of section 330 of CTA 2010 (see section 331 of that Act).

Senior tracking officers

66
1 The purchaser's senior tracking officer must—
a take reasonable steps to ensure that the tracked profit and loss amount attributable to a TTH asset for each tracking period is determined in accordance with paragraph 65, and
b provide the Commissioners for Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs with a certificate as to compliance with paragraph (a).
2 For each tracking period, the purchaser must notify the Commissioners for Revenue and Customs of the name of each person who was its senior tracking officer at any time during the period.
3 The certificate under sub-paragraph (1)(b), and the notice under sub-paragraph (2), must be given—
a in the form and manner specified by an officer of Revenue and Customs, and
b on or before the filing date for the purchaser's tax return for the tracking period (see paragraph 14 of Schedule 18 to FA 1998).
4 In this Part, “tracking period”, in relation to the TTH asset, means each accounting period in relation to which the purchaser is required under paragraph 63(a) to comply with the profit tracking requirements.
67
1 The purchaser's “senior tracking officer” is the officer of the purchaser or of an associated company who, in the purchaser's reasonable opinion, has overall responsibility for the purchaser's financial accounting arrangements.
2 In this section, “officer”, in relation to a company, means—
a a director,
b a manager,
c a secretary, and
d any other person managing or purporting to manage any of the company's affairs.
68
1 The senior tracking officer is liable to a penalty of £5,000 if the officer, without reasonable excuse—
a fails to comply with paragraph 66(1)(a) at any time in a tracking period, or
b fails to provide a certificate in accordance with paragraph 66(1)(b) and (3).
2 The senior tracking officer is not liable to more than one penalty under paragraph 68(1)(a) in respect of the TTH asset and the same tracking period.
3 If the purchaser, without reasonable excuse, fails to give a notice in accordance with paragraph 66(2) and (3), the purchaser is liable to a penalty of £5,000.
4 If (but for this sub-paragraph) more than one person would be liable for a penalty under sub-paragraph 68(1)(a) or (b) in respect of the TTH asset and a tracking period, only the person who became the senior tracking officer latest in the tracking period is liable to such a penalty.
69
1 Where a senior tracking officer, or the purchaser, becomes liable for a penalty under paragraph 68—
a Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs may assess the penalty, and
b if they do so, they must notify the person liable for the penalty.
2 An assessment of a penalty under this Part for a failure in respect of a tracking period may not be made—
a more than 6 months after the failure first comes to the attention of an officer of Revenue and Customs, or
b more than 6 years after the filing date for the purchaser's tax return for the tracking period (see paragraph 14 of Schedule 18 to FA 1998).
3 See paragraph 94 for provision about appeals against a penalty under paragraph 68.
70
1 A penalty under paragraph 68 must be paid—
a before the end of the period of 30 days beginning with the date on which the notification under paragraph 69 was issued, or
b if a notice of appeal against the penalty is given, before the end of the period of 30 days beginning with the date on which the appeal is determined or withdrawn.
2 A penalty under this Schedule may be enforced as if it were income tax charged in an assessment and due and payable or, in the case of the purchaser, corporation tax charged in an assessment and due and payable.

PART 10  TTH elections: effective date and withdrawal

Effective date of a TTH election

71
1 A TTH election in respect of a TTH asset—
a has effect, if it is approved in accordance with paragraph 61 or 62, from the licence transfer date,
b continues to have effect indefinitely in relation to seller, and
c continues to have effect in relation to the purchaser unless it is withdrawn in accordance with the provisions of this Schedule.
2 References in this Schedule to the “effective date of a TTH election” are to be construed in accordance with sub-paragraph (1)(a).

Withdrawal of a TTH election by an officer of Revenue and Customs

72
1 A TTH election ceases to have effect in relation to the purchaser if—
a the purchaser, without reasonable excuse, persistently fails to comply with either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph 63, and
b an officer of Revenue and Customs gives notice to the purchaser of the withdrawal of the election.
2 If notice is given under sub-paragraph (1), the TTH election ceases to have effect in relation to the purchaser for the accounting period in which the notice is given and each subsequent accounting period.
3 A notice given under sub-paragraph (1) does not affect any relief given by reference to paragraph 25 or 26 for a loss period ending before the notice is given.
4 See paragraph 94 for provision about appeals against a decision to withdraw an election under this paragraph.

PART 11  TTH elections: inaccuracies

Penalties for errors

73If a document provided for the purposes of making a TTH election contains an inaccuracy which is, or results in, an overstatement of the total TTH amount, Schedule 24 to FA 2007 has effect as if—
a the seller (and not the purchaser) is treated as giving the document to Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs,
b the inaccuracy is treated (so far as would not otherwise be the case) as leading to a false or inflated claim to repayment of tax, and
c “the potential lost revenue” in respect of the inaccuracy is an amount equal to 10% of the amount by which the total TTH amount is overstated.

Amendment of TTH election: amounts discovered to be incorrect

74
1 This paragraph applies if an officer of Revenue and Customs discovers that a TTH election incorrectly states an amount that affects, or may affect—
a the amount which may be applied in accordance with paragraph 25 (effect of trade loss relief provisions), or
b the amount of a repayment determined by reference to paragraph 26 (supplementary charge: repayment of tax).
2 The officer—
a may amend the TTH election to correct that amount, subject to paragraph 75, and
b must give notice to the purchaser of an amendment under paragraph (a).
3 But the power to amend the TTH election under this paragraph may only be exercised if, at the time the election was approved (see paragraphs 61 and 62), an officer of Revenue and Customs could not have been reasonably expected, on the basis of the information made available to the officer before that time, to be aware that the amount stated was incorrect.
4 An amendment under this paragraph may not be made more than 12 months after information that, in the opinion of an officer of Revenue and Customs, justifies the correction of the TTH election, comes to the officer's attention.
5 An amendment under this paragraph is to be ignored for the purposes of the application of Part 3 of this Schedule (effect of a TTH election on the seller).
6 If, on or after the licence transfer date, the seller's total profits for a pre-transfer accounting period are reduced, the statement of the total profits (or a statement of an amount determined by reference to the total profits) is not to be regarded as incorrect for the purposes of this paragraph (but see paragraph 18).
7 See paragraph 94 for provision about appeals against a decision under this paragraph.
75
1 This paragraph applies if, before the correction under paragraph 74 is made, an activated transferred profits amount for a pre-acquisition accounting period has been applied in accordance with paragraph 25(2)(b) or (3)(b).
2 An amendment made under paragraph 74(2) may not—
a reduce the transferred profits amount for that pre-acquisition accounting period to an amount which is less than the amount that has been applied, in respect of loss periods ending before the determination is made, in accordance with paragraph 25 for the pre-acquisition accounting period, or
b reduce the total TTH amount to an amount which is less than the total of the amounts that have been applied in accordance with paragraph 25 in respect of loss periods ending before the determination is made.

PART 12  Chargeable gains

Transferred tax history is not to be regarded as an asset

76Where the seller and the purchaser jointly make a TTH election in respect of the TTH asset, the transfer of tax history is not to be treated as—
a the disposal or acquisition of an asset for the purposes of TCGA 1992, or
b the disposal or acquisition of an intangible fixed asset for the purposes of Part 8 of CTA 2009.

Consideration for transferred tax history to be treated as consideration for the licence interest

77The amount or value of any consideration for the transfer of tax history is to be treated as part of the consideration for the licence interest for the purposes of—
a computing the chargeable gain or allowable loss accruing on the disposal (or on any subsequent disposal) of the licence interest (see section 8 of TCGA 1992), and
b computing the disposal value of the licence interest, on its disposal, for the purposes of Part 5 of CAA 2001 (mineral extraction allowances).

Market value of the licence interest: value of transferred tax history to be taken into account

78Any value attributable to the transfer of tax history is to be taken into account in determining the market value of the licence interest for the purposes of—
a section 17 of TCGA 1992 (disposals and acquisitions treated as being made at market value);
b Part 5 of CAA 2001, if the disposal value of the licence interest for the purposes of that Part is the market value of the licence interest at the time of that disposal (see section 423 of CAA 2001).

Licence swaps: references to disposal include references to transfer of tax history

79For the purposes of the application of sections 195A to 196 of TCGA 1992 (oil licence swaps) in relation to the disposal of the licence interest by the seller to the purchaser, references in those sections to the disposal are treated as including references to the transfer of tax history.

Interpretation of this Part

80
1 References in this Part to “the transfer of tax history” are references to—
a the seller, in consequence of the TTH election, ceasing to be entitled to take the transferred profits for an accounting period into account for certain corporation tax purposes in the circumstances specified in Part 3 of this Schedule, and
b the purchaser, in consequence of the TTH election, acquiring an entitlement, in the circumstances specified in Part 4 of this Schedule, to apply an amount of the transferred profits for the purposes of the trade loss relief provisions and to a corresponding repayment of supplementary charge.
2 References in this Part to “the licence interest” are references to the interest in a UK oil licence referred to in paragraph 1.

PART 13  Onward sale

Application of paragraphs 83 to 90

81This Part applies if—
a the purchaser (referred to in this Part as “the first purchaser”) and the seller jointly make a TTH election (the “first TTH election”) in respect of an interest (the “first TTH asset”) in the TTH oil field,
b the first purchaser subsequently sells to another company (“the second purchaser”) an interest in a UK oil licence which applies to the area which includes the TTH oil field, and
c the first purchaser and the second purchaser jointly make a TTH election (the “subsequent TTH election”) in respect of an interest (the “subsequent TTH asset”) in the TTH oil field.
82
1 Sub-paragraph (2) applies if—
a the first purchaser has an interest in the UK oil licence referred to in paragraph 1, in addition to the interest in that licence acquired from the seller, and
b the UK oil licence referred to in paragraph 81(b) is the same UK oil licence referred to in paragraph 1.
2 Interests in the licence acquired later by the first purchaser are treated, for the purposes of this Part, as being transferred to the second purchaser before interests in the licence acquired earlier by the first purchaser.

Original TTH amount treated as eligible ring fence profits

83
1 This Schedule applies, for the purposes of the subsequent TTH election, as if the original TTH amount for all relevant accounting periods were an amount of the first purchaser's eligible ring fence profits for that period.
2 Sub-paragraph (1) is subject to paragraphs 85 to 88.
3 In this Part of this Schedule, “relevant accounting period” means a pre-acquisition accounting period of the first purchaser for which there is, immediately before the effective date of the subsequent TTH election, an unused transferred profits amount.
4 In this Part of this Schedule, references to the “original TTH amount” mean, in relation to a relevant accounting period—
a the unused transferred profits amount for that period, or
b if the first TTH asset is not the same as the subsequent TTH asset, the relevant proportion of that amount for that period.
5 For the purposes of sub-paragraph (4)(b), the “relevant proportion” is the proportion that the subsequent TTH asset bears to the first TTH asset or, if the proportion cannot reasonably be determined on that basis, such other proportion determined on a just and reasonable basis.
6 In this paragraph, references to the unused transferred profits amount for an accounting period are references to—
a the transferred profits amount, in relation to the first TTH election, for that period, less
b the total of the amounts applied for that period in accordance with paragraph 25, for the purposes of the application of that paragraph in relation to a loss period of the first purchaser.
84The original TTH amount for each relevant accounting period ceases to be treated, for the purposes of the first TTH election, as a transferred profits amount for that period in relation to the first purchaser.

Original TTH amount transferred before eligible ring fence profits (subject to opt-out)

85
1 Paragraphs 86 and 87 apply in relation to the subsequent TTH election, subject to sub-paragraph (2).
2 The first purchaser and the second purchaser may elect, at the time the TTH election is made, that neither paragraph 86 nor paragraph 87 applies in relation to the subsequent TTH election.
86

Commencement for purposes of corporation tax

10The following have effect for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019—
a the provision made by paragraphs 1 to 4 and 6 so far as relating to corporation tax, and
b the amendments made by paragraphs 5 and 7 to 9.
11An accounting period beginning before and ending on or after 1 January 2019 is to be treated for the purposes of the provision made by this Schedule (other than paragraph 12 or 13) as if so much of the period as falls before that date, and so much of the period as falls on or after that date, were separate accounting periods.
12
1 This paragraph applies in the case of a security which was a regulatory capital security for the purposes of the Taxation of Regulatory Capital Securities Regulations 2013 immediately before 1 January 2019 (referred to in this Part of this Schedule as a “transitional qualifying instrument”).
2 The revocations made by paragraph 1 do not affect any case where regulation 3(2)(a) or (b), (3) or (3A) of those Regulations would have applied in relation to accounting periods ending on or before 31 December 2023 but for the provision made by paragraph 1.
3 In a case where sub-paragraph (2) has applied, paragraph 13 makes provision for corporation tax purposes in relation to an accounting period beginning on 1 January 2024 (“the 2024 period”) to bring in credits or debits in respect of a transitional qualifying instrument which exists immediately before that date so far as they would not otherwise be brought into account.
4 For the purposes of this paragraph and paragraph 13, an accounting period beginning before and ending on or after 1 January 2024 is to be treated as if so much of the period as falls before that date, and so much of the period as falls on or after that date, were separate accounting periods.
13
1 If there is a difference between—
a the tax-adjusted carrying value of a transitional qualifying instrument which is an asset or liability at the end of an accounting period ending on 31 December 2023, and
b the tax-adjusted carrying value of that instrument at the beginning of the 2024 period,
a credit or debit (as the case may be) of an amount equal to the difference must be brought into account for the purposes of Part 5 of CTA 2009 for the 2024 period in the same way as a credit or debit which is brought into account in determining the company's profit or loss for that period in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice.
2 For the purposes of this paragraph “tax-adjusted carrying value” is to be construed in accordance with—
a section 465B of CTA 2009 (tax-adjusted carrying value in relation to the asset or liability representing a loan relationship), and
b section 702 of CTA 2009 (tax-adjusted carrying value in relation to a contract).
3 Where in the 2024 period, in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice, the rights and liabilities under the transitional qualifying instrument have been treated as divided between—
a a loan relationship, and
b one or more derivative financial instruments or equity instruments,
the reference in this paragraph to the tax-adjusted carrying value of the transitional qualifying instrument means the sum of the tax-adjusted carrying values for each of those component instruments.
4 In sub-paragraph (3) “equity instrument” has the meaning it has for accounting purposes.
14
1 This paragraph applies to a transitional qualifying instrument which qualified as a regulatory capital security as a result of falling within regulation 2(1)(c) or (d) of the Taxation of Regulatory Capital Securities Regulations 2013.
2 The revocations made by paragraph 1 do not affect the application of regulation 3(2)(c)(i) of those Regulations in a case where the writing down or conversion concerned took place before 1 July 2019.
15
1 This paragraph applies if—
a regulation 3(2)(c)(i) of the Taxation of Regulatory Capital Securities Regulations 2013 applied in relation to a transitional qualifying instrument as a result of the writing down of the principal amount of the security on a temporary basis, and
b a credit was, accordingly, not brought into account under Part 5 of CTA 2009.
2 No debit is to be brought into account under that Part in respect of the writing up of the principal amount of the security in accordance with any regulatory requirements or the provisions governing the security.

Commencement for purposes of income tax and CGT

16
1 The provision made by paragraphs 1 to 4 has effect for the purposes of income tax in relation to payments made on or after 1 January 2019.
2 But the revocations made by paragraph 1—
a do not affect the application of regulation 6 or 9 of the Taxation of Regulatory Capital Securities Regulations 2013 in relation to payments made before the day on which this Act is passed, and
b do not, in the case of a transitional qualifying instrument, apply to payments made before 1 January 2024 in any case where regulation 6 or 9 of those Regulations would have applied but for the provision made by paragraph 1.
17The revocations made by paragraph 1 have effect for the purposes of capital gains tax in relation to disposals made on or after 1 January 2019.
18In so far as it relates to the definition of “corporate bond” in section 117(1) of TCGA 1992, the amendment made by paragraph 6 has effect in relation to disposals made on or after 1 January 2019.

1 The Treasury may by regulations amend section 475C of CTA 2009.
2 The power conferred by this paragraph may not be exercised after 31 December 2019.
3 The regulations may contain incidental, supplementary, consequential and transitional provision and savings.
4 The consequential provision that may be made by the regulations includes provision amending any provision made by or under any Act.
5 The regulations may contain retrospective provision.

PART 3  Stamp duty and stamp duty reserve tax

20A transfer of a hybrid capital instrument (within the meaning of section 475C of CTA 2009) is exempt from all stamp duties.
21The revocations made by paragraph 1, and the provision made by paragraph 20, have effect—
a for the purposes of stamp duty, in relation to instruments executed on or after the day on which this Act is passed, and
b for the purposes of stamp duty reserve tax—
i in the case of agreements to transfer securities which are not conditional, in relation to agreements made on or after that day, and
ii in the case of agreements to transfer securities which are conditional, in relation to agreements where the condition is satisfied on or after that day.
