Finance Act 2013

TCGA 1992

76.Paragraph 75 amends section 2 of TCGA. At present the charge to capital gains tax is on all gains for a year during any part of which the person is resident or ordinarily resident. From 2013-14 ordinary residence ceases to be a factor and the charge is on gains arising if the residence condition is met. In new subsection (1A) the residence condition is expressed separately for the various categories of person chargeable to capital gains tax. In particular, the condition for an individual is based on residence status for the tax year so as to be consistent with the wording of the statutory residence test. Section 2 is further amended by Part 3 of the statutory residence test to provide that for an individual a year of residence may be split into a UK part and overseas part in certain circumstances with the charge restricted according to the period in which the gains accrue.

77.Paragraph 76 amends section 10(1) of TCGA so that instead of a reference to being not resident and not ordinarily resident there is a reference to the residence condition in section 2(1A) not being met.

78.Paragraph 77 removes references to ordinarily resident from section 13 of TCGA.

79.Paragraph 78 amends section 16(3) of TCGA so that instead of a reference to being not resident and not ordinarily resident there is a reference to the residence condition in section 2(1A) not being met.

90.Paragraph 105 removes a reference to ordinarily resident from paragraph 2(7)(a) of Schedule 1 to TCGA.

91.Paragraph 106 removes references to ordinarily resident from paragraph 5 of Schedule 4A to TCGA and amends the language of paragraph 6 to refer to the residence condition in section 2(1A).
