Commentary on Sections

Example 3

£150(Pe) – £50(E) = £100
Part 4: Employment income: exemptions
Chapter 8: Exemptions: Special kinds of employees
Section 293: Overnight expenses of other elected representatives

1206.This section derives from the overnight expenses part of section 200ZA of ICTA in respect of elected representatives of the Scottish Parliament, the National Assembly for Wales and the Northern Ireland Assembly.

1207.This exemption has not been combined with the similar one for Members of the House of Commons because the detailed rules are different. It is clearer to keep them separate. Again, this section is supplemented by section 360.
