Non-Domestic Rates (Scotland) Act 2020

The Act

Part 4 – Anti-avoidance regulations

Section 38 – Meaning of “advantage”

170.Section 38 explains what is meant by an “advantage” in relation to non-domestic rates. This is essentially anything that reduces the amount of rates payable, delays payment of the rates or results in repayment of rates. Subsection (1) sets out a number of things that might, in particular, constitute an advantage. This includes avoiding a rates assessment, having rates remitted, obtaining or increasing a relief from rates, having rates repaid, or a repayment increased, and having a payment deferred or having a repayment advanced.

171.Subsection (2) provides that, when determining whether there is an advantage in relation to rates, the amount of rates that would have been payable in the absence of avoidance arrangements may be relevant.
