This is the original version (as it was originally enacted).
46(1)In relation to an appeal of which notice has been given under paragraph 36, “settlement agreement” means an agreement between the appellant and an officer of Revenue and Customs that is—
(a)entered into before the appeal is determined, and
(b)to the effect that the decision appealed against should be upheld without variation, varied in a particular manner or discharged or cancelled.
(2)Where a settlement agreement is entered into in relation to an appeal, the consequences are to be the same (for all purposes) as if, at the time the agreement was entered into, the tribunal had decided the appeal and had upheld the decision without variation, varied it in that manner or discharged or cancelled it, as the case may be.
(3)Sub-paragraph (2) does not apply if, within 30 days from the date when the settlement agreement was entered into, the appellant gives notice in writing to HMRC that it wishes to withdraw from the agreement.
(4)Where a settlement agreement is not in writing—
(a)sub-paragraph (2) does not apply unless the fact that an agreement was entered into, and the terms agreed, are confirmed by notice in writing given by HMRC to the appellant or by the appellant to the HMRC, and
(b)the references in sub-paragraphs (2) and (3) to the time when the agreement was entered into are to be read as references to the time when the notice of confirmation was given.
(5)Sub-paragraph (6) applies where notice of an appeal has been given under paragraph 36 and—
(a)the appellant notifies HMRC, orally or in writing, that the appellant does not wish to proceed with the appeal, and
(b)HMRC do not, within 30 days after that notification, give the appellant notice in writing indicating that they are unwilling that the appeal should be withdrawn.
(6)Sub-paragraphs (1) to (4) have effect as if, at the date of the appellant’s notification, the appellant and an officer of Revenue and Customs had agreed (orally or in writing, as the case may be) that the decision under appeal should be upheld without variation.
(7)References in this paragraph to an agreement being entered into with an appellant, and to the giving of notice or notification by or to the appellant, include references to an agreement being entered into, or notice or notification being given by or to, a person acting on behalf of the appellant in relation to the appeal.
