1992 c. 7. The scope of section 11 and the provisions of Schedule 1 exercised by the Treasury and the Commissioners of Inland Revenue in making these Regulations is extended by section 133(1) of the Finance Act 1999 (c. 16) insofar as they relate to the electronic delivery of information.

Section 121(1) is cited because of the meaning ascribed to “prescribe”.
