Income Tax Act 2007

Section 891: Meaning of “UK public revenue dividend”

2687.This section defines “UK public revenue dividend” as being any income from securities which is paid out of the public revenue of the United Kingdom or Northern Ireland, but excludes interest on local authority stock. It is based on section 349(4) of ICTA.

2688.The reference to “Northern Ireland” in the definition of “UK public revenue dividend” reflects the fact that amounts paid out of the public revenue of the United Kingdom to the Northern Ireland Exchequer Consolidated Fund (from which securities may be issued under section 11(1)(c) of the Exchequer and Financial Provisions Act (Northern Ireland) 1950) are not “public revenue of the United Kingdom”.
