Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 Explanatory Notes

Section 513: Capital receipts: payments by trustees to employer company

2084.This section and section 514 apply where the trustees receive money which gives rise to a capital receipt that counts as employment income in the hands of the participant (see section 501). This section then applies to deal with the “basic” case that arises in these circumstances. The trustees are to pay over an amount equal to the amount of employment income to the employer company (an expression defined in subsection (5)), and the employer company is then to account for the PAYE and to pay the balance to the employee.

2085.This section is the first of two that rewrite paragraph 96 of Schedule 8 to FA 2000. This section derives from sub-paragraphs (1) and (2) of paragraph 96. Subsection (5) takes account of the amendment made to paragraph 96(2) of Schedule 8 to FA 2000 by section 39(4) of FA 2002.
