Option for valuation on flat-rate basis

A1

1

This paragraph applies if, in a prescribed accounting period, supplies of goods by a taxable person (“P”) arise by virtue of paragraph 5(1) of Schedule 4 (but otherwise than for a consideration) where road fuel which is or has previously been supplied to or imported or manufactured by P in the course of P's business is provided for, or appropriated to, private use.

2

For this purpose “road fuel is provided for, or appropriated to, private use” if—

a

it is provided or to be provided by P—

i

to an individual for private use in the individual's own car or a car allocated to the individual, and

ii

by reason of the individual's employment,

b

where P is an individual, it is appropriated or to be appropriated by P for private use in P's own car, or

c

where P is a partnership, it is provided or to be provided to any of the individual partners for private use in that partner's own car.

3

P may opt for all supplies of goods within sub-paragraph (1) made by P in the prescribed accounting period to be valued on the flat-rate basis.

4

On the flat-rate basis, the value of all supplies made to any one individual in respect of any one car is that determined in accordance with an order under paragraph B1.

B1

1

The Treasury must, by order, make provision about the valuation of supplies on the flat-rate basis.

2

In particular, an order under this paragraph must—

a

set out a table (“the base valuation table”) by reference to which the value of supplies is to be determined until such time as the base valuation table is replaced under paragraph (b),

b

provide that at regular intervals—

i

the amounts specified in the base valuation table are to be revalorised by the Commissioners in accordance with the order, and

ii

a table (an “updated valuation table”) containing the revalorised amounts is to take effect (and replace any existing table) in accordance with the order, and

c

require the Commissioners to publish any updated valuation table before it takes effect, together with a statement specifying the date from which it has effect.

3

An order under this paragraph may provide for the base valuation table and any updated valuation table to be implemented or supplemented by either or both of the following—

a

rules set out in the order which explain how the value is to be determined by reference to any table;

b

notes set out in the order with respect to the interpretation or application of any table or any rules or notes.

4

Rules or notes may make different provision for different circumstances or cases.
