Finance Act 2015

Background Note

12.In addition to ring fence corporation tax (RFCT), oil and gas companies are also subject to an additional tax, the supplementary charge (SC), on adjusted ring fence profits arising from oil-related activities. The rate of SC is currently 20 per cent.

13.Field allowances provide relief by reducing the amount of adjusted profits on which SC is due for oil and gas projects which meet certain conditions. Existing field allowances and the onshore allowance are provided by Part 8, Chapters 7 and 8 CTA 2010, and apply to fields, projects and sites which satisfy the relevant criteria.

14.The new investment and cluster area allowances will help provide the right conditions for business investment to maximise the economic recovery of the UK's oil and gas resources' and simplify the existing regime of field allowances, and encourage exploration and appraisal within the surrounding area (or “cluster”).

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.
