590U.K.In paragraph 109(4) of Schedule 2 (transitional provision: contracts in accounting periods beginning before 1st January 1992) for the words from “Section 539(3)” to the end substitute “Section 539 (relief for deficiencies) has effect as if for subsections (1) to (6) there were substituted—
“(1)A deficiency from a policy or contract arising on a chargeable event is allowable as a deduction in calculating an individual's net income for a tax year if, had a gain arisen instead on the chargeable event—
(a)the individual would have been liable to income tax on the gain for that year, or
(b)the individual would have been so liable apart from the requirement in section 465(1) that the individual must be UK resident in the tax year in which the gain arises.
(2)See section 540 for the cases in which a deficiency is treated as arising from a policy or contract on a chargeable event, section 541 for how the deficiency is calculated and section 469(5) for the apportionment of deficiencies in cases where two or more persons are interested in a policy or contract.””
