The powers exercised by the Commissioners for Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs are those conferred by sections 20AA(1) and (2) and 24(1) of, and paragraphs 19 to 21 of Schedule 4 to, the Hydrocarbon Oil Duties Act 1979(2).

Section 14E of HODA was relevantly amended by paragraph 6 of Schedule 9 to the Taxation (Cross-border Trade) Act 2018 (c. 22). Paragraphs 6(3) and 6(4) of that Schedule are omitted by paragraph 17 of Schedule 11 to the Finance Act 2020 (c. 14) and a new section 14E of HODA was substituted by paragraph 8 of Schedule 11 to the Finance Act 2020, which was commenced in relation to Northern Ireland only by S.I. 2021/740 (C. 36) with effect from 30th June 2021, for the purposes of making regulations, and with effect from 1st October 2021 (also for Northern Ireland only), for all other purposes.
Section 20AA of HODA was inserted by the Finance Act 1989 (c. 26), section 2(1); sections 20AA-20AB were placed under a new heading entitled “Powers to allow reliefs” by the Finance Act 2016 (c. 24), Schedule 17(1), paragraph 6(2). The reference in section 20AA to hydrocarbon oil is to be construed as including a reference to biodiesel and bioblend, by virtue of regulation 3 of S.I. 2004/2065.
