Commentary on Sections

Part 5: Enterprise investment scheme

Overview

Chapter 6: Withdrawal or reduction of EIS relief
Overview
Section 223: Section 222: supplementary

707.This section supplements section 222. It is based on section 300A(1), (2) and (7) to (11) and section 312(1) of ICTA.

708.Subsections (1) and (2) contain limitations on the application of section 222.

709.There is a new reference in subsection (2)(c) to “the day” on which the amount of relief is determined. This is in line with the interpretation that the provision disqualifies restitution if it happens on the 61st day after the day of the determination.

710.Subsections (3) and (4) set out, for one particular case, the consequences of section 222 applying. Subsection (4) combines part of the provision in section 300A(10) of ICTA with material from paragraph 13C(4) of Schedule 5B to TCGA. A consequential amendment to that paragraph completes the picture (see the commentary in Part 2 of Schedule 1 to this Act on paragraph 13C of Schedule 5B to TCGA).
