(3)Subsection (2) has effect subject to section 189(2).

(5)Assumption B is that the amount of DP’s relevant profits in respect of which DP is given credit for foreign tax does not include the amount (if any) by which DP’s relevant profits are treated as reduced in accordance with section 174.

(6)If any adjustment is required to be made for the purpose of giving effect to any of the preceding provisions of this section—

(a)it may be made by setting the amount of the adjustment against any relief or repayment to which DP is entitled in pursuance of DP’s claim under section 174, and

(b)nothing in the Tax Acts limiting the time within which any assessment is to be or may be made or amended prevents that adjustment from being so made.

(7)In subsection (5) “DP’s relevant profits” means the profits arising to DP from the carrying on of the relevant activities (see section 216).

  • double taxation arrangements” means arrangements that have effect under section 2(1) (double taxation relief by agreement with territories outside the United Kingdom), and
