Overview
Section 773: Overview of Chapter

2277.This section provides an overview of the Chapter, outlining its purpose and the charge it imposes. It is based on section 775(1) of ICTA.

2278.Although section 775(1)(a) and (b) of ICTA refer to “transactions or arrangements”, section 775(1)(c) only refers to “transactions”. The original source legislation, section 31(1)(c) of FA 1969, refers to “transactions or arrangements” and subsection (2) restores this phrase.
