Income Tax Act 2007

Finance Act 2002

Schedule 16

3293.Part 7 of this Act, based on Schedule 16 to FA 2002, provides for individuals to obtain income tax reductions for investments in community development finance institutions (CDFIs). That Schedule continues in force so far as it provides for companies to obtain relief against corporation tax for such investments. The relief is referred to as CITR.

Paragraphs 4 to 7

3294.This amendment substitutes for paragraphs 4 to 7 a new paragraph 4 applying Chapter 2 (accredited community development finance institutions) of Part 7 of this Act for the purposes of Schedule 16 to FA 2002. This amendment ensures that accreditation in accordance with that Chapter applies for the purposes of both CITR for individuals under Part 7 of this Act and CITR for companies under Schedule 16 to FA 2002.

Paragraph 12

3295.This amendment substitutes for paragraph 12(2) new sub-paragraphs (2), (2A) and (2B). These new sub-paragraphs ensure that the limit on the value of investments made in the CDFI in any accreditation period in respect of which it may issue tax relief certificates applies to the aggregate value of investments made by companies under Schedule 16 to FA 2002 and of investments made by individuals under Part 7 of this Act.

Paragraphs 40 and 41

3296.This amendment omits paragraphs 40 and 41 which have effect only for the purposes of capital gains tax or corporation tax on chargeable gains. Sections 151BB and 151BC(1) to (4) of TCGA, introduced by this Schedule, are based on those paragraphs. See the commentary on those new sections of TCGA.

Paragraph 47

3297.There are two amendments to paragraph 47.

3298.The first omits the references to capital gains tax and corporation tax on chargeable gains in paragraph 47(3) and (4). Section 151BA(2) and (3) of TCGA, introduced by this Schedule, are based on those sub-paragraphs so far as they have effect for those purposes (see the commentary on that new section of TCGA). Those sub-paragraphs continue to apply for the purposes of CITR for companies. Section 377(2) and (3), based on those sub-paragraphs, apply for the purposes of CITR for individuals.

3299.The second omits paragraph 47(5) and (6). Those sub-paragraphs have effect only for the purposes of capital gains tax or corporation tax on chargeable gains. Section 151BA(6) and (7) of TCGA, introduced by this Schedule, are based on those sub-paragraphs. See the commentary on that new section of TCGA.

Paragraph 48

3300.This amendment omits the reference to capital gains tax and corporation tax on chargeable gains in paragraph 48(2). Section 151BC(5) of TCGA, introduced by this Schedule, is based on that sub-paragraph so far as it has effect for those purposes (see the commentary on that new section of TCGA). That sub-paragraph continues to apply for the purposes of CITR for companies. Section 379(2), based on that sub-paragraph, applies for the purposes of CITR for individuals.
