Where on a change in the year 1964-65 or any subsequent year of assessment in the persons carrying on a part of a trade a person carries on that part as his separate trade, and if it had been carried on as a separate trade immediately before the change subsection (1) of section 17 (company reconstruction without change of ownership not to be treated as involving a discontinuance of the trade) of the Finance Act 1954 would have applied to the change, then—
a
the part in question shall be treated for all the purposes of the Income Tax Acts not as a new trade set up and commenced by that person, but as carried on by him in continuation of a separate trade consisting of that part; and

PART I

Meaning of " capital sum "
1
In section 17 of this Act (in this Schedule referred to as " the principal section ") " capital sum " means any sum of money, or any money's worth, except so far as it or any part of it is to be treated for the purposes of income tax as a receipt to be taken into account in computing the profits or gains or losses of a trade, profession or vocation, or profits or gains or losses arising from woodlands, or is, apart from the principal section, chargeable under Case VI of Schedule D.

Transactions amounting to the obtaining of a capital sum
2
1
References in the principal section to a sum obtained in respect of the lessee's interest in a lease of an asset, or in respect of any other interest in an asset include—
a
in the case of a lessee's interest, references to sums representing the consideration in money or money's worth obtained on a surrender of the rights to the lessor, or on an assignment of the lease, or on creating a sublease or any other interest out of the lease, and
b
references to any insurance moneys payable in respect of the asset, so far as payable to the owner of the interest in the asset.
2
Such references also include references to sums representing money or money's worth obtained by the person entitled to the interest by a transaction or series of transactions disposing of the asset, or of an interest in the asset, and in particular transactions which comprise arrangements under which the rights of the lessee under a lease of the asset are merged in any way with the rights of the lessor, or with any other rights as respects the asset, so far as the money or money's worth so obtained is attributable to the rights of the lessee under the lease.

Transactions not at arm's length
3
1
References in the principal section to sums obtained in respect of any interest in an asset include references to money or money's worth so obtained in any transaction (including a transaction of the kind described in paragraph 2 of this Schedule) by way of consideration received by a person who is an associate (as defined in this Schedule) of the person entitled to the interest in the asset.
2
If an interest in the asset is disposed of by any person to a person who is his associate (as defined in this Schedule), the person disposing of the interest shall (unless in fact he obtains a greater sum) be treated for the purposes of the principal section as having obtained in respect of the interest—
a
the value of the interest in the open market, or
b
the value of the interest to the person to whom it is. in effect, transferred,
whichever is the greater.
3
For the purposes of this paragraph a disposition may be direct or indirect and may be effected by any such transaction as is described in paragraph 2(2) of this Schedule.

Partnerships and joint interests
4
1
For the purposes of the principal section and this Schedule any sum obtained by persons carrying on a trade, profession or vocation in partnership in respect of an interest in an asset which is and continues to be used for the purposes of the trade, profession or vocation shall be regarded as apportionable between them in the shares in which they are then entitled to the profits of the trade, profession or vocation.
2
Subject to the foregoing sub-paragraph, for those purposes a sum obtained by persons jointly entitled to an interest in an asset shall be apportionable according to their respective interests in the rights.
3
For the said purposes, any payment in respect of which a deduction is allowable by way of income tax relief which is made by persons carrying on a trade, profession or vocation in partnership shall be apportioned in such manner as may be just.
4
Section 329(1) of the Income Tax Act 1952 (Commissioners having jurisdiction in questions of apportionment) shall apply for determining any question arising under this Schedule as to the manner in which any sum or payment is to be apportioned.

Meaning of " associate "
5
For the purposes of this Schedule, and in construing the expressions " associate " and " associated " in the principal section and this Schedule, the following persons shall be deemed to be associated with each other, that is to say.—

b
any person in his capacity of trustee of a settlement and any individual who in relation to the settlement is a settlor, and any person associated with that individual (" settlement" and " settlor " having for this purpose the meanings assigned to them by section 403 of the Income Tax Act 1952);

In this paragraph " body of persons" includes a partnership, and " control" has the meaning assigned to it by section 333 of the Income Tax Act 1952.

Additional capital sum in respect of same interests
6
1
So far as in respect of a capital sum—
a
any part of a payment allowed as a deduction by way of income tax relief of a kind to which the principal section applies is taken into account in making an assessment under subsection (1) of the principal section, or
b
any part of a payment allowed as a deduction in computing profits or losses for the purposes of the profits tax is taken into account in treating income as arising under subsection (2) of the principal section for the purposes of the profits tax,
that part of the payment shall be left out of account in determining whether any and if so what amount should be assessed, or treated as arising as income chargeable to the profits tax, by reference to any other capital sum ; and the order in which this paragraph is applied shall be the order in which the capital sums are obtained.
2
In this paragraph references to any deduction allowable in computing the profits or losses of a trade or business include references to a deduction which would be so allowable but for the provisions of section 42(5) of the Finance Act 1938.

Consequential adjustments of income tax and the profits tax
7
1
There shall be made all such adjustments of income tax and of the profits tax, whether by way of making assessments or by repayment of tax, as are required after the making of any such payment as is described in subsection (1) or subsection (2) of the principal section to give effect to the charge under the said subsection (1) or, as the case may be, to charge income arising under the said subsection (2), in respect of a sum obtained before the making of the payment.
2
Notwithstanding anything in the Income Tax Acts or the enactments relating to the profits tax limiting the time within which an assessment may be made or a claim for relief may be admitted any such adjustment may be made, by making an assessment or otherwise, at any time not more than six years from the end of the year of assessment (or, in relation to the profits tax, from the end of the chargeable accounting period) in which the payment was made.
PART II

Hire-purchase agreements
8
1
If the lease constitutes a hire-purchase agreement, for the references in the provisos to subsections (1) and (2) of the principal section to the amount of the capital sum there shall, where that capital sum was obtained in respect of the lessee's interest in the lease constituting the hire-purchase agreement, be substituted references to the amount of the capital sum (adjusted, if necessary, under subsection (5) of the principal section) after deducting any capital expenditure which was incurred by the person obtaining the capital sum in providing the lessee's interest and which is, for capital allowance purposes, still unallowed at the time when the assignment or other transaction takes place in respect of which the capital sum is obtained.
2
In this paragraph " capital expenditure incurred by the person obtaining the capital sum in providing the lessee's interest" means—
a
so much of any payment made under the lease by the person obtaining the capital sum (or, where the capital sum was obtained by the personal representatives of a deceased person, so made by that deceased person) as is not a payment in respect of which a deduction is allowable by way of income tax relief which is one of the kinds listed in subsection (4) of the principal section, plus
b
where the lessee's interest was assigned to the person obtaining the capital sum, any capital payment made by that person as consideration for the assignment.
3
In this paragraph the reference to the amount of capital expenditure which is, for capital allowance purposes, still unallowed at the said time shall be construed as a reference to the amount of the capital expenditure after deducting any amount which, under section 297 of the Income Tax Act 1952 (definition of " expenditure unallowed " for purposes of capital allowances for machinery and plant), would be deductible in ascertaining as at that time the amount still unallowed of expenditure incurred by the said person in providing the leased asset.
4
If the amount to be deducted in pursuance of sub-paragraph (1) of this paragraph exceeds the amount of the capital sum from which it is to be deducted, no charge shall arise under subsection (1) or subsection (2) of the principal section in respect of the capital sum.

Disposition of part of rights under hire-purchase agreement
9
1
If the capital sum represents the consideration for part only of the lessee's interest in the lease which constitutes a hire-purchase agreement, the amount to be deducted under paragraph 8(1) of this Schedule shall be such proportion of the capital expenditure which is still unallowed as is reasonable having regard to the degree to which the capital expenditure has contributed to the value of what is disposed of in return for the capital sum.
2
If more than one capital sum is, or is to be regarded as, obtained by the same person in respect of the lessee's interest in the lease which constitutes a hire-purchase agreement, then, so far as in respect of one of those capital sums any deduction is made in respect of capital expenditure in pursuance of paragraph 8(1) of this Schedule, that capital expenditure shall be left out of account in applying paragraph 8 of this Schedule to any other such capital sum ; and the order in which this sub-paragraph is applied shall be the order in which the capital sums are obtained.

Meaning of " hire-purchase agreement"
10
1
In this Part of this Schedule " hire-purchase agreement" has the same meaning as in the Hire-Purchase Act 1938.
2
In Scotland, for the foregoing definition there shall be substituted the following definition—
- " hire-purchase agreement " means any contract, in whatsoever terms it may be expressed, whereby goods are taken on hire by one person from another person in consideration of periodical payments to be made by the first mentioned person to the other person, with an option to the first mentioned person to become the buyer of the goods.
