Section 340: Treatment of demolition costs

1146.This section is based on section 8(12) of CAA 1990. It applies to a person who, having incurred demolition costs, faces a balancing allowance or balancing charge as a result of a building being demolished. The net cost of the demolition is added to the residue of qualifying expenditure prior to the demolition. This means the net cost gets tax relief through industrial buildings allowances.

1147.Subsection (4) allows the cost of demolition or the net cost of demolition to be treated as expenditure on a replacement property only for the purposes of assured tenancy allowances (Part 10).
