Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 Explanatory Notes

Section 243: Support for public bus services

989.This section derives from section 197AB of ICTA. That section excludes from the charge under section 154 the benefit arising from any financial or other support provided by one or more employers for a public bus service that their employees use for journeys to and from the workplace, or between workplaces. The section takes into account the amendments made by section 33 of FA 2002. Certain definitions are now in section 249. In providing for no liability to income tax the exemption in ICTA has been widened in the same way as in section 242. See Change 46 in Annex 1.
