EXPLANATORY NOTE
These Regulations amend the Double Taxation Relief (Surrender of Relievable Tax Within a Group) Regulations 2001 (S.I. 2001/1163) (“the principal Regulations”). The principal Regulations provide for the surrender of “eligible unrelieved foreign tax” by one company in a group to another group company. The amendment made by these Regulations is in consequence of the Finance Act 2008 (c. 9).
Regulation 1 provides for the citation, commencement and effect of these Regulations.
Regulation 2 amends paragraph (5) of regulation 4 of the principal Regulations by substituting “section 431(2YB) of the Income and Corporation Taxes Act” for “section 89(1B) of that Act” (meaning the Finance Act 1989) which has been repealed by Finance Act 2008.
A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
