SCHEDULES.

FOURTH SCHEDULE Income Tax Reliefs in Connection with Redundancy Schemes.

PART III Exclusion of relief in respect of contributions paid after relief has been given under part II of this schedule.

7 The provisions of this Part of this Schedule shall have effect where—

(a) a contribution is paid under a scheme in respect of a trade ; and

(b) before the contribution is paid, payments have been made under the scheme to the person carrying on the trade ; and

(c) reductions have been made, under the preceding provisions of this Schedule, in the amounts which, by reason of those payments, are to be treated as trading receipts of the trade.

8 There shall be ascertained—

(a) the total amount of the said reductions ; and

(b) the sum by which that total would have been decreased if the contribution, and any previous contributions to which this Part of this Schedule applies, had been paid before any of the payments were made.

9 For the purpose of determining what deduction is to be made in respect of the contribution under section twenty-five of the Finance Act, 1935, the contribution shall be deemed to be reduced by the sum specified in sub-paragraph (b) of the last preceding paragraph, but—

(a) for the purpose of the application of that paragraph in relation to contributions subsequently paid under the scheme in respect of the trade, the total amount of the reductions referred to in that paragraph shall be treated as decreased by that sum ; and

(b) for the purpose of the application of paragraph 5 of this Schedule, in relation to payments subsequently made under the scheme in respect of the trade, the total amount of the reductions referred to in the said paragraph 5 shall be treated as decreased by the said sum.

10 When two or more contributions are paid at the same time, the provisions of this Part of this Schedule shall have effect as if they were a single contribution.
