83Provisions supplementary to sections 80 to 82
(1)In sections 80 to 82 above " capital payment" means any payment which is not chargeable to income tax on the beneficiary or, in the case of a beneficiary who is neither resident nor ordinarily resident in the United Kingdom, any payment received otherwise than as income.
(2)In subsection (1) above references to a payment include references to the transfer of an asset and the conferring of any other benefit, and to any occasion on which settled property becomes property to which section 46 of the [1979 c. 14.] Capital Gains Tax Act 1979 applies.
(3)The fact that the whole or part of a benefit is by virtue of section 45 (2) (b) above treated as the recipient's income for a year of assessment after that in which it is received—
(a)shall not prevent the benefit or that part of it being treated for the purposes of sections 80 to 82 above as a capital payment in relation to any year of assessment earlier than that in which it is treated as his income; but
(b)shall preclude its being treated for those purposes as a capital payment in relation to that or any later year of assessment.
(4)For the purposes of sections 80 to 82 above the amount of a capital payment made by way of loan, and of any other capital payment which is not an outright payment of money, shall be taken to be equal to the value of the benefit conferred by it.
(5)For the purposes of sections 80 to 82 above a capital payment shall be regarded as received by a beneficiary from the trustees of a settlement if—
(a)he receives it from them directly or indirectly, or
(b)it is directly or indirectly applied by them in payment of any debt of his or is otherwise paid or applied for his benefit, or
(c)it is received by a third person at the beneficiary's direction.
(6)Section 29(3) of the [1979 c. 14.] Capital Gains Tax Act 1979 (losses accruing to non-residents not to be allowable losses) shall not prevent losses accruing to trustees in a year of assessment for which section 80 above or section 17 of that Act applied to the settlement from being allowed as a deduction from chargeable gains accruing in any later year beginning after 5th April 1981 (so far as they have not previously been set against gains for the purposes of a computation under either of those sections or otherwise).
