(a)a sum arises to—

(i)a company connected with A, or

(ii)a person not connected with A,

(b)any of the enjoyment conditions is met, and

(c)the sum does not arise to A apart from this section.

(2)The enjoyment conditions are—

(a)the sum, or part of the sum, is in fact so dealt with by any person as to be calculated at some time to enure for the benefit of A or a person connected with A;

(b)the arising of the sum operates to increase the value to A or a person connected with A of any assets which—

(i)A or the connected person holds, or

(ii)are held for the benefit of A or the connected person;

(c)A or a person connected with A receives or is entitled to receive at any time any benefit provided or to be provided out of the sum or part of the sum;

(d)A or a person connected with A may become entitled to the beneficial enjoyment of the sum or part of the sum if one or more powers are exercised or successively exercised (and for these purposes it does not matter who may exercise the powers or whether they are exercisable with or without the consent of another person);

(e)A or a person connected with A is able in any manner to control directly or indirectly the application of the sum or part of the sum.

In this subsection, in a case where the sum referred to in subsection (1)(a) arises to a company connected with A, references to a person connected with A do not include that company.

(3)There arises to A for the purposes of this Chapter—

(a)the sum referred to in subsection (1)(a), or

(i)the nature or form of the benefits, or

(ii)whether the person has legal or equitable rights in respect of the benefits.

(6)The enjoyment condition in subsection (2)(b), (c) or (d) is to be treated as not met if it would be met only by reason of A holding shares or an interest in shares in a company.

(7)The enjoyment condition in subsection (2)(a) or (e) is to be treated as not met if the sum referred to in subsection (1)(a) arises to a company connected with A and—

(a)the company is liable to pay corporation tax in respect of its profits and the sum is included in the computation of those profits, or

In this subsection “CFC” has the same meaning as in Part 9A of TIOPA 2010.

(a)it is reasonable to assume that in the absence of the arrangements the sum or part of the sum would have arisen to A or an individual connected with A, and

(b)it is reasonable to assume that the arrangements have as their main purpose, or one of their main purposes, the avoidance of a liability to pay income tax, capital gains tax, inheritance tax or corporation tax.

(9)The condition in subsection (8)(b) is to be regarded as met in a case where the sum is applied directly or indirectly as an investment in a collective investment scheme.

(10)Section 993 (meaning of “connected”) applies for the purposes of this section, but as if—

(a)subsection (4) of that section were omitted, and

(b)partners in a partnership in which A is also a partner were not “associates” of A for the purposes of sections 450 and 451 of CTA 2010 (“control”).

(2)In ITA 2007, in section 809EZA(3)(c), omit “directly or indirectly”.
