Notwithstanding anything in subsection (2) of this section, where rent is payable under a lease under which the tenant is entitled to the use of furniture, and tax in respect of the payment for its use is chargeable under Case VI of Schedule D, tax in respect of the rent shall be charged under Case VI of Schedule D unless the landlord, by notice in writing to the surveyor given within two years after the end of the year of assessment, requires that this provision shall not apply. Where notice is given under this subsection any adjustment of the liability to tax of the person giving the notice which is required in consequence thereof may be made by an additional assessment or by repayment or otherwise, as the case may require.

Any additional assessment under Case VIII may be made and signed by the surveyor.
Where any tax under Case VIII is charged in respect of profits or gains arising from any land to a person who is not the occupier of the land, but the tax is not paid by that person (in this subsection referred to as " the person in default "), it may be recovered in accordance with the following provisions:—
subject to the following paragraph, the collector may from time to time by notice in writing, in such form as may be prescribed by the Commissioners of Inland Revenue, require any lessee of the land or any part thereof whose interest is derived (directly or indirectly) from that held by the person in default (in this subsection referred to as " a derivative lessee ") to make to him payment, on the date or dates specified in the notice, of such sum or sums as may be required to satisfy the tax;
the sum demanded from a derivative lessee to be paid during any period shall not exceed the amount of the rent or other payments arising out of the land which becomes due from him at the end of the period and payable to the person in default or to another derivative lessee;
in default of payment by a derivative lessee of any amount duly demanded of him under this subsection, that amount may be recovered from him in like manner as if he had been charged with tax of that amount;
where any sum on account of tax has been collected from a derivative lessee in pursuance of this subsection, he may deduct that sum from any subsequent payment arising as aforesaid and payable to the person in default or to another derivative lessee, and shall be acquitted and discharged of the amount so deducted;
where under the foregoing paragraph, or under that paragraph as applied by this paragraph, a sum is deducted from an amount payable to another derivative lessee, that paragraph shall apply as if the sum had been collected from him under a demand made under this subsection by the collector, and where the amounts from which under that paragraph he is entitled to make deductions in respect of that sum during the following twelve months are less than that sum, he shall be entitled to recover from the Commissioners of Inland Revenue an amount equal to the difference, which shall be treated as reducing the tax recovered under this subsection.
Where any person (hereinafter referred to as " the agent") is in receipt of rents or receipts from land on behalf of another person (hereinafter referred to as " the principal"), and any tax under Case VIII charged on the principal has not been paid, the collector may by notice in writing, in such form as may be prescribed by the Commissioners of Inland Revenue, require the agent to pay to the collector in or towards the satisfaction of the tax any sums from time to time received by the agent on behalf of the principal on account of rents or receipts from any land (including any sums so received which are in his hands when the notice is given) until the liability in respect of the tax has been satisfied; and the agent shall pay all such sums over to the collector accordingly and the payment shall acquit and discharge him as against the person on whose behalf he received them. If the agent fails to comply with the requirements of a notice duly served on him, he shall be liable to a penalty not exceeding fifty pounds for each failure, non-compliance as respects sums in his hands when the notice is given, or as respects any one payment subsequently received by him, being treated as a separate failure.
Section 369 of the Act of 1952 (taxation of non-residents in name of agent) shall not apply to tax on profits or gains chargeable to tax under Case VIII, or on any of the profits or gains chargeable under Case VI of Schedule D— where payment is made (whether in the United Kingdom or elsewhere) directly to a person whose usual place of abode is outside the United Kingdom, but section 170 of the Act of 1952 shall apply in relation to the payment as it applies to other payments being annual payments charged with tax under Schedule D and not payable out of profits or gains brought into charge to tax.
in a case falling within subsection (4) of the foregoing section, or
which arise under the terms of a lease, but to a person other than the landlord, or otherwise arise out of any disposition or contract such that if they arose to the person making it they would be chargeable under Case VIII,
Where by virtue of the foregoing subsection the tax chargeable for any year of assessment on a person's profits or gains chargeable to tax under either or both of the Cases therein mentioned would apart from this subsection be greater than the tax which would be chargeable thereon apart from subsection (2) of this section, then on a claim in that behalf being made relief shall be given from the excess, whether by repayment or otherwise.
Where on a claim in that behalf a person proves— the claimant shall be treated for tax purposes for all relevant years of assessment as if he had not been entitled to the said amount, and such adjustment shall be made, by repayment or otherwise, as the case may require; but if all or any part of the said amount is subsequently received, the claimant or, if he is dead, his executors or administrators shall not later than six months thereafter give notice in writing of its receipt to the surveyor, and such re-adjustment of liability to tax (for all relevant years of assessment) shall be made as may be necessary and may be made at any time at which it could be made if it related only to tax for the year of assessment in which the amount, or the part of the amount, is received.
that he has not received an amount which he was entitled to receive in respect of any rents or receipts on the profits or gains arising from which he would be chargeable under Case VIII, and
if the non-receipt of the said amount was attributable to the default of the person by whom it was payable, that the claimant has taken any reasonable steps available to him to enforce payment,
if the claimant waived payment of the said amount, that the waiver was made without consideration and was reasonably made in order to avoid hardship,
The foregoing subsection shall be deemed to be included in the third column of Schedule 6 to the Finance Act 1960 (relating to penalties on persons failing to furnish particulars or furnishing false particulars).
For the purpose of obtaining particulars of profits or gains chargeable to tax under Case VIII, the surveyor may by notice in writing require—

any lessee or former lessee of land to give such information as may be so prescribed as to any consideration given for the grant or assignment to him of the tenancy;

The foregoing subsection shall be deemed to be included in the second column of Schedule 6 to the Finance Act 1960 (relating to penalties on persons, other than the taxpayer, failing to furnish particulars or furnishing false particulars).

any claim to which objection is made shall, if the claimant so elects when he makes the claim, be heard and determined by the Special Commissioners.
Section 15 of this Act shall not have effect as respects tax for the year 1963-64, and—
paragraph (a) of section 14(1) of this Act shall not have effect as respects tax for that year, but
the occupier of a unit of assessment shall not be assessed to tax under Schedule A for that year unless he is liable in respect of the unit to pay rent under a short lease (within the meaning of section 173 of the Act of 1952) or to make any other payment, not being one specified in the proviso to section 15(1) of this Act, on which he may deduct tax, and if so assessed shall not be assessed on any amount such that as reduced for the purpose of collection it exceeds the amount on which tax may be deducted ;
the landlord shall not be so assessed (by virtue of section 109 or 110 of the Act of 1952) on any amount such that as reduced for the purpose of collection it exceeds the greater of the two following amounts, that is to say—
the rent to which he is entitled, less any rates or other charge or composition specified in section 86(1) of the Act of 1952 (deduction for tenant's rates etc.) paid by him,
the amount of any payment on which tax may be deducted by him as mentioned in paragraph (b) above.
Subject to the provisions of this section.—
no claim under section 101 of the Act of 1952 (maintenance claims) shall be made as respects tax for the year 1963-64 by the occupier of the unit of assessment, and
a landlord shall not be entitled under the said section 101 to repayment of tax for 1963-64 on an amount greater than the excess (if any) of the amount specified in sub-paragraph (i) above over that specified in sub-paragraph (ii) above.
References in the foregoing provisions of this section to the occupier shall be construed, where different parts of a unit of assessment are the subject of separate occupations, and an immediate lessor (within the meaning of Chapter II of Part VII of the Act of 1952) is in occupation of a part, as references to the immediate lessor, but in such a case—
subsection (1)(b) of this section shall apply only (and with any necessary apportionment) as respects so much of the unit as is in the occupation of the immediate lessor, and
subsection (2)(a) of this section shall not prevent a claim by the immediate lessor in respect of so much of the cost of maintenance, repairs, insurance and management as is attributable to any part of the unit of assessment not in his occupation.
Where any of the circumstances relevant to the existence or amount of liability to tax under Schedule A for the year 1963-64 are not the same at the time as at which that liability falls to be determined as at another time (whether earlier or later) in the year, the relief (if any) from such tax to be given under the foregoing provisions of this section shall be such as is appropriate having regard to the different circumstances and the proportion of the year for which they obtained ; and for the purpose of securing that any amount of tax to be levied shall be borne by the right person and in the right proportions such assessments or additional assessments, or repayments of tax, shall be made as may be just, regard being had to any arrangements made between the persons concerned.
Where this paragraph applies to an estate for the year 1963-64 the owner shall be treated for the purposes of tax under Schedule A or under Chapter II of Part VII of the Act of 1952 (excess rents) as if he were not the occupier of any part of the estate occupied by him, and as if— but as respects any period during which the sub-paragraph (1) hereinbefore contained does not exclude the operation of subsection (2)(a) of this section, the cost of the maintenance, repairs, insurance and management of any part of the land referred to in that sub-paragraph as the estate, being a part in the occupation of the owner, shall be disregarded in the application of section 101(4) of the Act of 1952 to the land.
Paragraph 9 of Schedule 4 to this Act, and the provisions of paragraph 10 of that Schedule modifying the application of the said paragraph 9 in certain cases, shall apply for the purpose of computing rent payable by a person in determining his liability to tax for the year 1963-64 under section 175 or 176 (excess rents) of the Act of 1952 as they apply for the purpose of computing amounts deductible for purposes of Case VIII in subsequent years.
The amounts of tax deductible or repayable under section 157 (pay as you earn) of the Act of 1952 before the 6th July 1963 shall not be deemed to have been affected by the foregoing provisions of this Chapter, but any necessary adjustment of a person's liability to tax shall be made by adjusting subsequent deductions or repayments or, if need be, by an assessment.
In the case of any person who became the owner of a unit of assessment during the year 1963-64, an allowance under section 101 of the Act of 1952 in respect of the unit of assessment for that year shall be computed as if that section required the cost of maintenance, repairs, insurance and management to be ascertained on the basis of the actual cost in the year instead of according to the average of the preceding five years, and as if subsection (2) of that section (by virtue of which " maintenance" includes the replacement of farm buildings, etc.) were omitted.
The foregoing provisions of this section shall apply in relation to section 176(1)(g) of the Act of 1952 (deduction for maintenance etc. in taxing excess rents under certain short leases) as they apply in relation to section 101 of that Act, but with the substitution—
for references to a unit of assessment of references to land in respect of the excess rents for which the person in question is chargeable to tax under the said section 176, and
for the reference to an owner of a reference to a lessor.
Where the payment of any premium is required under a lease, or otherwise under the terms subject to which a lease is granted, and the duration of the lease does not exceed fifty years, the landlord shall be treated for the purposes of the Income Tax Acts as becoming entitled, when the lease is granted, to an amount by way of rent (in addition to any actual rent) equal to the amount of the premium reduced by one-fiftieth of that amount for each complete period of twelve months (other than the first) comprised in the duration of the lease.
Where the terms subject to which a lease is granted impose on the tenant an obligation to carry out any work on the premises, the lease shall be deemed for the purposes of this section to have required the payment of a premium to the landlord (in addition to any other premium) of an amount equal to the amount by which the value of the landlord's estate or interest, immediately after the commencement of the lease, exceeds what its then value would have been if the said terms did not impose that obligation on the tenant: Provided that this subsection shall not apply in so far as the obligation requires the carrying out of work payment for which would, if the landlord and not the tenant were obliged to carry it out, be deductible from the rent under Schedule 4 to this Act.
Where, under the terms subject to which a lease is granted, a sum becomes payable by the tenant in lieu of the whole or a part of the rent for any period, or as consideration for the surrender of the lease, the lease shall be deemed for the purposes of this section to have required the payment of a premium to the landlord (in addition to any other premium) of the amount of that sum; but—
in computing tax chargeable by virtue of this subsection in respect of a sum payable in lieu of rent, the duration of the lease shall be treated as not including any period other than that in relation to which the sum is payable;
notwithstanding anything in subsection (1) of this section, rent treated as arising by virtue of this subsection shall be deemed to become due when the sum in question becomes payable by the tenant.
Where, as consideration for the variation or waiver of any of the terms of a lease, a sum becomes payable by the tenant otherwise than by way of rent, the lease shall be deemed for the purposes of this section to have required the payment of a premium to the landlord (in addition to any other premium) of the amount of that sum; but in computing tax chargeable by virtue of this subsection the duration of the lease shall be treated as not including any period which precedes the time at which the variation or waiver takes effect or falls after the time at which the variation or waiver ceases to have effect, and notwithstanding anything in subsection (1) of this section rent treated as arising by virtue of this subsection shall be deemed to become due when the contract providing for the variation or waiver is entered into.
Where a payment falling within subsection (1), (3) or (4) of this section is due to a person other than the landlord, no charge to tax shall arise under that subsection, but any amount which would otherwise fall to be treated as rent shall be treated as profits or gains of that other person chargeable under Case VI of Schedule D: Provided that where the amount relates to a payment falling within the said subsection (4) it shall not be so treated unless the payment is due to a person connected with the landlord.
Where an amount by reference to which a person is chargeable to tax by virtue of this section is payable by instalments, he may, before the expiration of the year of assessment following that in which he becomes entitled to the first such instalment, by notice in writing to the surveyor claim that the tax chargeable by reference to that amount shall, instead of being computed in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this section, be computed as if each instalment were rent payable under the lease or, in the case of instalments payable to a person other than the landlord, or payable to a person after he has ceased to be the landlord, were an annual profit or gain chargeable to tax under Case VI of Schedule D, and where a claim is so made all such additional assessments, alterations of assessments and repayments of tax shall be made as may be necessary.
Section 16(2) of this Act shall not apply in relation to amounts which in computing profits or gains under Case VIII are relevant only by virtue of the foregoing provisions of this section.
Where by virtue of this section a person is treated as becoming entitled in the year 1963-64 to any rent in respect of a unit of assessment, the computation under section 175(1) (excess rents) of the Act of 1952 of the amount which would have been the amount of the assessment of the unit for the purposes of Schedule A, as reduced for the purpose of collection, if the annual value had been determined (having regard to that rent) as therein mentioned shall be made without increasing, on account of that rent, the amount by which the assessment would have been reduced for the purpose of collection.
Where the terms subject to which a lease of a duration not exceeding fifty years was granted are such that the grantor, having regard to values prevailing at the time it was granted, and on the assumption that the negotiations for the lease were at arm's length, could have required the payment of an additional sum (hereinafter referred to as " the amount foregone ") by way of premium, or additional premium, for the grant of the lease, then, on any assignment of the lease for a consideration— the amount of the excess, in so far as it is not greater than the amount foregone reduced by the amount of any such excess arising on a previous assignment of the lease, shall in the same proportion as the amount foregone would under section 22(1) of this Act have fallen to be treated as rent if it had been a premium under the lease, be treated as profits or gains of the assignor chargeable to tax under Case VI of Schedule D.
where the lease has not previously been assigned, exceeding the premium (if any) for which it was granted, or
where the lease has been previously assigned, exceeding the consideration for which it was last assigned,
If there is submitted to the surveyor, by the grantor or any assignor or assignee of the lease, a statement showing whether or not a charge to tax arises or may arise under this section, and if so the amount on which the charge arises or may arise, then if the surveyor is satisfied as to the accuracy of the statement he shall certify the accuracy thereof.
Where the terms subject to which an estate or interest in land is sold provide that it shall be, or may be required to be, reconveyed at a future date to the vendor or a person connected with him, the vendor shall be chargeable to tax under Case VI of Schedule D on any amount by which the price at which the estate or interest is sold exceeds the price at which it is to be reconveyed or, if the earliest date at which, in accordance with those terms, it would fall to be reconveyed is a date two years or more after the sale, on that excess reduced by one-fiftieth thereof for each complete year (other than the first) in the period between the sale and that date.
Where under the terms of the sale the date of the reconveyance is not fixed, then—
if the price on reconveyance varies with the date, the price shall be taken for the purposes of this section to be the lowest possible under the terms of the sale;
the vendor may, before the expiration of six years after the date on which the reconveyance takes place, claim repayment of any amount by which tax assessed on him by virtue of this section exceeded the amount which would have been so assessed if that date had been treated for the purposes of this section as the date fixed by the terms of the sale.
Where the terms of the sale provide for the grant of a lease directly or indirectly out of the estate or interest to the vendor or a person connected with him, this section shall apply as if the grant of the lease were a reconveyance of the estate or interest at a price equal to the sum of the amount of the premium (if any) for the lease and the value at the date of the sale of the right to receive a conveyance of the reversion immediately after the lease begins to run : Provided that this subsection shall not apply if the lease is granted, and begins to run, within one month after the sale.
Paragraph 8 of Schedule 4 to this Act, and the provisions of paragraph 10 of that Schedule modifying the application of the said paragraph 8 in certain cases, shall have effect for reducing or removing a charge to tax imposed otherwise than under Case VIII by virtue of any of the three foregoing sections (excluding section 22(6)) as they have effect in relation to a charge to tax imposed under Case VIII; and the provisions of Schedule 6 to this Act shall have effect for giving relief, on a claim being made by him in that behalf, from any increase in an individual's liability to tax which is attributable to amounts being treated by virtue of any of the three foregoing sections (excluding section 22(6)) as receipts for a single year of assessment rather than as receipts for the period in relation to which they are chargeable.
Sections 16(6), 17 and 18 of this Act shall apply in relation to sums chargeable to tax under Case VI of Schedule D by virtue of any provision of the three foregoing sections as they apply to profits or gains chargeable to tax under Case VIII.
In relation to amounts which by virtue of any provision of the three foregoing sections would, in the case of a person resident in the Republic of Ireland and not resident in the United Kingdom, be included in his income if he were not resident in the Republic of Ireland, Chapter IV (prevention of tax avoidance by means of transactions resulting in the transfer of income to persons abroad) of Part )(VIII of the Act of 1952 shall apply as if his income included those amounts and as if references to an individual included references to any person, but shall so apply as if subsection (3) of section 412 (which provides relief for certain transactions) were omitted.
For the purposes of section 346 (loss relief under Case VI of Schedule D) of the Act of 1952, a loss sustained in a transaction falling within any of the three foregoing sections shall be disregarded.
In ascertaining for the purposes of the three foregoing sections the duration of a lease, the following provisions shall have effect:— Provided that where the duration of a lease falls to be ascertained after a date on which the lease has for any reason come to an end, the duration shall be taken to have extended from its commencement to that date, and where the duration falls to be ascertained at a time when the lease is subsisting the provisions of the foregoing paragraphs shall be applied in accordance with circumstances prevailing at that time.
where the terms of the lease include provision for the determination thereof by notice given either by the landlord or by the tenant, the lease shall not be treated as granted for a term longer than one ending at the earliest date on which it could be determined by notice;
where any of the terms of the lease (whether relating to forfeiture or to any other matter) or any other circumstances render it unlikely that the lease will continue beyond a date falling before the expiration of the term of the lease, the lease shall not be treated as having been granted for a term longer than one ending on that date:
Nothing in the three foregoing sections shall apply in relation to a lease granted or an estate or interest in land sold before the beginning of the year 1963-64 or in pursuance of a contract entered into before the 4th April 1963: Provided that section 22(4) of this Act shall apply to the variation or waiver of any terms of a lease (not being a variation or waiver made in pursuance of a contract entered into before the 4th April 1963) notwithstanding that the lease was granted before the beginning of the year 1963-64.
In relation to Scotland the expression " term" in this section, where referring to the duration of a lease, means " period ".
Profits or gains arising out of land in the case of any concern specified in Schedule 7 to this Act shall be charged to tax under Case I of Schedule D.
The foregoing subsection shall not apply to tax for the year 1963-64, but in relation to tax for that year the concerns specified in the proviso to paragraph 1 of Schedule A (mining and other concerns the profits of which are charged under Case I of Schedule D) shall include quarries of sand or gravel, sand pits, gravel pits and brickfields.
Where any assessment to tax under Schedule A falls to be made after the end of the year 1963-64, the assessment may be made on any person liable to bear any of the tax, to the extent of the amount to be borne by him, as if to that extent he were assessable in respect thereof under section 110 of the Act of 1952 (landlord's option to be assessed in lieu of occupier); and where such an assessment is made subsections (3) and (4) of that section (payment of tax by occupier, and deduction of amount paid from rent) shall apply, but not so as to authorise recovery, from a person not liable (apart from this provision) to bear the tax, of tax which he cannot deduct from rent payable to a person so liable.
In paragraph 1 of Schedule B (which specifies the lands which are to be charged to tax under Schedule B) for the words from " all lands " to the end of the paragraph there shall be substituted " woodlands in the United Kingdom managed on a commercial basis and with a view to the realisation of profits, so however that this paragraph has effect subject to the right given by section 125 of this Act to elect for assessment under Schedule D " ; and paragraphs 3 to 5 of Schedule B shall cease to have effect.
Annual value for the purposes of Schedule B shall be determined in accordance with the provisions set out in Schedule 5 to this Act (being provisions corresponding with the provisions enacted for determining gross value for rating purposes), but as if the land, instead of being woodlands, were let and occupied in its natural and unimproved state, so however that where a person is in occupation of land chargeable to tax under Schedule B for part only of the year, or where land in a person's occupation is so chargeable to tax for part only of a year, the value by reference to which he is chargeable under Schedule B shall be the appropriate proportion of the value determined as aforesaid.
Profits or gains arising in any year of assessment from payments for any easement over or right to use any land made to the person who occupies the land shall not be excluded from the charge to tax under Case VIII by reason only that he is chargeable with respect to the land under Schedule B, but shall be treated for purposes of Case VIII as limited to the amount (if any) by which they exceed the assessable value of the land or, as the case may be, by which they exceed such proportion of that value as corresponds to the proportion of the year for which he occupies the land.
Any assessment to tax under Schedule B made after the end of the year 1963-64 as respects land in England or Wales or in Scotland may be made either in any division where the person assessed is engaged in a trade, profession, or vocation or in which he ordinarily resides, or in any division where the land is situated, and an assessment made in pursuance of the provisions of this subsection shall be valid and effectual notwithstanding the subsequent removal of the person assessed from the division in which he is assessed.
In computing profits or gains under Case I or Case II of Schedule D no deduction shall be made in respect of the annual value of land occupied for the purpose of the trade, profession or vocation; and section 136 of the Act of 1952 (which allows such deductions in the case of land separately assessed and charged under Schedule A) shall cease to have effect: Provided that the provisions of Schedule 8 to this Act shall have effect for allowing deductions, in the cases there provided, by reference to deductions which would have fallen to be made if the said section 136 had applied for the years 1963-64 and 1964-65.
Section 137(n) of the Act of 1952 (prohibition of deduction of rent and certain other payments, being payments made subject to deduction of tax) shall not apply to payments in relation to land made in respect of periods ending on or before the 5th April 1964, and in making any deductions permitted by this subsection the amount of the payment shall be taken to be the gross amount thereof : Provided that—
this subsection shall not apply to any payment to which section 180 (mineral rents and royalties, etc.) of the Act of 1952 applies;
the aggregate amount of the deductions permitted by this subsection as respects any land in computing profits or gains for the year 1963-64 shall not exceed the assessment of the land for that year under Schedule A, as reduced for the purpose of collection.
Where, in relation to any land used in connection with a trade, profession or vocation.— the provisions of Schedule 9 to this Act shall have effect, in the cases there provided, for allowing deductions calculated by reference to that amount in computing the profits or gains of the trade, profession or vocation.
tax has become chargeable under section 22 (except subsection (6)), 23 or 24 of this Act on any amount (disregarding any reduction in that amount under paragraph 8 of Schedule 4 to this Act), or
tax would have become so chargeable on that amount but for the operation of section 22(6) of this Act or the said paragraph 8, or but for any exemption from tax,
Where during a period in the five years ending with the year 1962-63 any premises were occupied by a person for the purposes of a trade, profession or vocation carried on by him, and payments relating to the premises made by him during that period in respect of maintenance, repairs or insurance were not deducted in computing the profits or gains of the trade, profession or vocation chargeable under Case I or II of Schedule D, he shall be entitled to a deduction in computing those profits or gains for the year 1963-64 of any amount by which the aggregate of the payments exceeds the aggregate of so much of the relief which was or, on a claim in that behalf, could have been allowed to him under sections 99 to 101 of the Act of 1952 as related to the premises and is attributable to any part of the said period.
In computing the profits or gains of a trade of dealing in land, any trading receipt falling within subsection (1), (3) or (4) of section 22 of this Act shall be treated as reduced by the amount on which tax is chargeable by virtue of that section.
In a case falling within section 22(6) of this Act.—
if no claim is made under that subsection, the foregoing subsection shall have effect as if it provided that sc much only of any instalment falling within subsection (1), (3) or (4) of section 22 of this Act shall be treated as a trading receipt as exceeds the sum which bears to the amount on which tax is chargeable by virtue of the said section 22 the proportion which the instalment bears to the sum of which it is an instalment;
if a claim is made, the foregoing subsection shall not apply, but no part of any instalment shall be treated as a trading receipt.
In computing the profits or gains of a trade of dealing in land, any trading receipts falling within section 23 or 24 of this Act shall be treated as reduced by the amount on which tax is chargeable by virtue of that section, but where on a claim being made under subsection (2)(b) of the said section 24 the amount on which tax was chargeable by virtue of that section is treated as reduced this subsection shall be deemed to have applied to the amount as reduced, and such adjustment of liability to tax shall be made (for all relevant years of assessment), whether by means of an additional assessment or otherwise, as may be necessary and may be so made at any time at which it could be made if it related only to tax for the year of assessment in which the said claim is made.
Where, as respects tax for the year 1964-65 or any subsequent year, any question arises as to the annual value of land, it shall be determined by the General Commissioners for the division in which the land is situated, or if it is situated partly in one division and partly in another the General Commissioners for such one of those divisions as the person in whose case the question falls to be determined may elect; and those Commissioners shall hear and determine the question in like manner as an appeal made to them against an assessment under Schedule D, and all the provisions of the Income Tax Acts relating to such an appeal (including the provisions relating to the statement of a case for the opinion of the High Court on a point of law) shall apply accordingly with any necessary modifications.
Any person authorised in that behalf by the Commissioners of Inland Revenue may, on producing if so required evidence of his authority, at any reasonable time enter on and inspect, with a view to establishing its annual value, any land the annual value of which falls to be determined for purposes of tax for the year 1964-65 or any subsequent year.
A payment made as an instalment, or part of an instalment, of an annuity within the meaning of the Tithe Acts 1936 and 1951 shall be treated for income tax purposes as follows.
Five-sixths of the amount of the payment, but no more, shall be deducted from or set off against the income of the person making the payment for the year of assessment in which the instalment becomes payable, and tax shall be discharged or repaid accordingly.
No part of the payment shall be allowed as a deduction for the year 1963-64 under section 97 of the Act of 1952 (allowance under Schedule A for tithe annuities) or shall be included for any subsequent year among the deductions provided for by Schedule 4 to this Act.
In this Chapter, except where the context otherwise requires.— and paragraph 20 of Schedule 9 to the Finance Act 1962 (meaning of " connected person ") shall apply for the purposes of this Chapter.
and any duty chargeable by reference to that heading shall be charged accordingly.

that the rules of the association restrict membership to persons who are tenants or prospective tenants of the association, and preclude the granting or assignment (or in Scotland the granting or assignation) of tenancies to persons other than members, and
that the association satisfies such other requirements as may be prescribed by the approving authority, and will comply with such conditions as may for the time being be so prescribed.
References in this section to the approval of an association shall be construed as references to approval—
by the Minister of Housing and Local Government, in the case of an association in England or Wales,
by the Secretary of State in the case of an association in Scotland,
by the Minister of Health and Local Government for Northern Ireland, in the case of an association in Northern Ireland;

For the purposes of this Chapter any sum (other than rent) paid on or in connection with the granting of a tenancy shall be presumed to have been paid by way of premium except in so far as other sufficient consideration for the payment is shown to have been given.
In the application of this Chapter to Scotland " premium " includes in particular a grassum payable to any landlord or intermediate landlord on the creation of a sub-lease; and in this subsection " intermediate landlord " means, where an occupying lessee is a sub-lessee, any person for the time being holding the interest of landlord under a sub-lease which comprises the property of which the occupying lessee is sub-lessee, but does not include the immediate landlord.
Investment allowances in respect of expenditure incurred after the 5th November 1962 (other than expenditure on the provision of a ship) shall be increased by one-half, and accordingly, in relation to expenditure incurred after that date, for references in section 16(2) and (5) of the Finance Act 1954 and section 21(4) of the Finance Act 1959 to one-tenth there shall be substituted references to three-twentieths and for references in section 16(3), (4) and (6) of the Finance Act 1954 and section 15 of the Finance Act 1957 to one-fifth there shall be substituted references to three-tenths.
An annual allowance under section 266 of the Act of 1952 in respect of capital expenditure incurred after the 5th November 1962 on the construction of a building or structure, or under section 17 of the Finance Act 1956 in respect of capital expenditure incurred after that date on dredging, shall be equal to one twenty-fifth of the expenditure instead of (as heretofore) one-fiftieth thereof, and accordingly, as respects any such allowance, for the word " one-fiftieth " where it occurs in sections 266(1) and 268(5) of the Act of 1952 and section 17(1) of the Finance Act 1956, there shall be substituted the words " one twenty-fifth ", and for the word " fiftieth " where it occurs in sections 266(2) and 267(1) of the Act of 1952 there shall be substituted the word " twenty-fifth ".
The provisions of this section shall have effect for calculating annual allowances under Chapter II of Part )( of the Act of 1952 in respect of machinery or plant to which this section applies, that is to say new machinery or plant capital expenditure on the provision of which was incurred after the 5th November 1962; and such machinery or plant shall continue to be treated as machinery or plant to which this section applies notwithstanding any sale of it or other change of circumstances.
Where, for any year of assessment, an annual allowance in respect of machinery or plant to which this section applies falls to be computed in accordance with section 281 (normal method) of the Act of 1952 by reference to a percentage established before the year 1963-64 under that section, the amount of the allowance resulting from the application of that percentage—
where it is less than fifteen per cent. of the relevant capital amount, shall be increased so as to equal fifteen per cent. of that amount; or
where it is between fifteen and twenty per cent. of the relevant capital amount, shall be increased so as to equal twenty per cent. of that amount; or
where it is less than twenty-five but not less than twenty per cent. of the relevant capital amount, shall be increased so as to equal twenty-five per cent. of that amount.
Where for the year 1963-64 or a subsequent year of assessment a percentage established before the year 1963-64 under the said section 281 falls to be redetermined or a percentage falls to be determined under that section for a new class of machinery or plant, the percentage shall for the purpose of its application to machinery or plant to which this section applies be redetermined or determined, and Chapter II of Part )( of the Act of 1952 shall thereafter apply in relation to machinery or plant of the class in question to which this section applies, as if, instead of requiring the annual allowance to be five-fourths of the percentage therein specified of the relevant capital amount, the said section 281 required it to be a percentage of that amount determined by the Commissioners of Inland Revenue by reference to the anticipated normal working life of machinery or plant of the class in question, being such a percentage as is mentioned below, that is to say—
where that life is eighteen years or more, fifteen per cent.; or
where that life is less than eighteen but not less than fourteen years, twenty per cent.; or
where that life is less than fourteen years, twenty-five per cent.
Where a percentage has been determined for a year of assessment under the foregoing subsection and is not for any later year superseded by a subsequent determination, it shall be treated as if it had been determined for that later year also.
In deciding, as respects a class to which a percentage established before the year 1963-64 under the said section 281 applies, whether or not, for the purposes of machinery or plant to which this section applies, a redetermination of the percentage is necessary, the amount of the percentage as falling to be adjusted, that is to say as increased by one quarter and further increased, where so required, under subsection (2) of this section, shall be treated as if it were a percentage determined in accordance with subsection (3) of this section: Provided that where the percentage so established, as increased by one quarter, is greater than the percentage mentioned in paragraph (c) of the said subsection (3), this subsection shall apply as if that greater percentage were instead so mentioned.
Subsections (2) to (5) of this section shall apply in relation to allowances falling to be computed in accordance with section 282 (alternative method) of the Act of 1952 as if references to section 281 of that Act were references to that section, and as if for any reference to fifteen, twenty or twenty-five per cent. there were substituted a reference to six and one quarter, eight and one half or eleven and one quarter per cent. respectively.
If, in relation to any machinery or plant to which this section applies, a direction falls to be made under section 285 (adjustments of annual allowances in cases of abnormal use) of the Act of 1952 for the year 1963-64 or any subsequent year of assessment, the anticipated normal working life of the machinery or plant shall be ascertained as though it were used throughout its working life in the manner in which and to the extent to which it is used in the year in question, and the annual allowance in respect of the machinery or plant for that year shall be calculated as, by virtue of subsection (3) of this section (or by virtue of that subsection as applied by the foregoing subsection), it would be if the relevant percentage for machinery or plant of that class fell to be redetermined for that year and its anticipated normal working life were as so ascertained.
Where, in the case of machinery or plant of any class, annual allowances for the year 1962-63 or any earlier year of assessment falling to be computed in accordance with section 281 or 282 of the Act of 1952 were computed by reference to a percentage which, though not determined or deemed to have been determined by the Commissioners under that section, was commonly treated as if it had been so determined, that percentage shall, notwithstanding that a percentage is after the commencement of this Act so determined for that year, be regarded for the purposes of annual allowances under Chapter II of Part )( of that Act for the year 1963-64 or any subsequent year of assessment in respect of machinery or plant of that class to which this section applies as the percentage so determined for the year 1962-63 or that earlier year, as the case may be.
In relation to machinery or plant of any class, references in this section to a percentage established before the year 1963-64 shall be construed as references to a percentage established by a determination made or deemed to have been made under section 281(2) or, as the case may be, section 282(2) of the Act of 1952 and applying for the year 1962-63 to that class, and references to the anticipated normal working life of the machinery or plant shall be construed in accordance with section 281(6) or, as the case may be, section 282(6) of that Act.
In section 283 of the Act of 1952 (which provides for a change from the normal method of computing annual allowances to the alternative method), in subsection (1)(b), for the words " the percentage mentioned in subsection (2) of the last preceding section " there shall be substituted the words " the percentage that would otherwise apply ".
Nothing in this section shall affect the operation of section 284 of the Act of 1952 (by which a person to whom an annual allowance is to be made in respect of machinery or plant used for working mineral deposits may elect to have the allowance computed by a special method).
In the case of expenditure incurred after the 5th November 1962, an allowance under section 336 of the Act of 1952 (allowances for capital expenditure on scientific research) shall be made by allowing in the first of the five years of assessment mentioned in that section a deduction equal to the whole of the expenditure instead of by allowing in that year a deduction equal to three-fifths of the expenditure and in each of the remaining four years a deduction equal to one-tenth of the expenditure, and accordingly, in relation to expenditure so incurred, that section shall have effect as if— and section 16(6)(a) of the Finance Act 1954 (which provides for an investment allowance to be made only for the first year of assessment for which an allowance under the said section 336 falls to be made) shall not have effect.
in subsection (1), for the words from " a deduction " to the end, there were substituted the words " a deduction equal to the whole of the expenditure shall be allowed in charging the profits or gains of the trade for the relevant year of assessment as defined by the following subsections ";
in subsections (2) and (4), for the words " the five years shall be that and the next four years ", there were substituted the words " the relevant year of assessment shall be that year "; and
in subsection (3), for the words from " the five years " to the end, there were substituted the words " the relevant year of assessment shall be the year of assessment next following that in which the trade was set up and commenced. ",
The said section 336, as amended by the foregoing subsection, shall have effect in relation to expenditure incurred after the 5th November 1962 as if the following subsection were inserted at the end:—
In the case of an asset representing expenditure incurred after the 5th November 1962, Part )(I of the Act of 1952 shall apply as if, in section 337 thereof, subsection (1) (which restricts allowances where an asset ceases to be used for scientific research) were omitted and the following were substituted for subsection (2):—.
Subject to the provisions of this section, where, foi the purposes of a trade carried on or about to be carried on by him, a person incurs capital expenditure on the acquisition of a mineral asset the acquisition of which entitles him to work a mine, oil well or other source of mineral deposits of a wasting nature in the United Kingdom, and the trade consists of or includes the working of that source, he shall be entitled for any year of assessment the basis period for which ends after the incurring of the expenditure to an annual allowance in respect of the expenditure.
Subject as aforesaid, the annual allowance for a year of assessment shall be equal to the fraction mentioned below of the royalty value of the output in the basis period for the year from the source to which the expenditure relates, that is to say—
where the first working of the source after the expenditure was incurred was less than ten years before the end of that basis period, one-half ;
where that first working was less than twenty but not less than ten years before the end of the basis period, one-quarter;
in any other case, one-tenth.
An annual allowance under this section in respect of any expenditure shall not be made to a person for a year of assessment unless the amount of the expenditure exceeds the aggregate of any allowances under this section made to him for previous years in respect of the expenditure together with any capital sums accruing to him in or before the basis period for the year by virtue of his acquisition of the mineral asset in question, and where made shall not be greater than the amount of the excess; and for this purpose there shall be deemed to have been made for years preceding the year 1963-64 such annual allowances as would have fallen to be made if this section had always had effect.
Where in the basis period for any year of assessment a person ceases to work the source to which capital expenditure incurred by him relates and, apart from this and the foregoing subsection, an annual allowance under this section would fall to be made to him for that year in respect of the expenditure, the allowance shall not be made, and—
if the aggregate of any allowances under this section made to him for previous years in respect of the expenditure exceeds so much of the expenditure as represents the cost of acquiring the output got by him from the source (other than output got before the 4th April 1963), a balancing charge on an amount equal to the excess shall be made on him for that year, or
if that aggregate is less than so much of the expenditure as represents the cost of acquiring that output, a balancing allowance equal to the difference shall be made to him for that year.
So much of the capital expenditure incurred by a person on the acquisition of a mineral asset as remains after deducting— shall be taken for the purposes of the foregoing subsection to represent the cost of acquiring the output got by him from the source; and where part of the output was got by him before the 4th April 1963, the cost of acquiring the part got on or after that date shall be taken for those purposes to be an amount which bears to the amount so remaining the same proportion as the royalty value of the output from the source on or after that date bears to the royalty value of the whole output got by virtue of the expenditure. In this subsection " market value ", in relation to an asset, means the price which it might reasonably be expected to fetch on a sale in the open market (whether for use by the purchaser for mining purposes or other purposes) if, before the sale, the owner of the asset had carried out such works (if any) for restoring or otherwise making good the land surface at the site of the source as, having regard to the obligations imposed on him and other relevant circumstances, he might reasonably be expected to carry out whether or not he sold the asset, but reduced by so much of that price as is attributable to matters not representing any part of the capital expenditure in question.
the market value of the asset at the time the source to which the expenditure relates ceases to be worked by ' him, and
any capital sums accruing to him before that time by virtue of his acquisition of the asset,
Where a balancing adjustment is made in respect of a person under subsection (4) of this section, or would fall to be so made if the relevant amounts were not equal, and after ceasing to work the source he carries out any works for restoring or otherwise making good the land surface at the site of the source, the cost of those works shall not be taken into account in computing for the purposes of tax under Case I of Schedule D the profits or gains of his trade unless it was assumed, in computing the market value of the asset for the purposes of the said subsection (4), that those works would be carried out.
Where any allowance under this section falls to be made to a person in or before a year of assessment in the basis period for which he ceases to work the source to which the expenditure in question relates, and in the basis period for a later year of assessment he again begins to work the source, then—
in computing, in accordance with subsection (2) of this section, the amount of an annual allowance for the later year or any subsequent year, the period between the cessation and recommencement of working shall be disregarded ; and
in computing, for the purposes of subsection (3) or (4) of this section, the aggregate of allowances for previous years, those allowances shall be treated as reduced by the amount on which any balancing charge under paragraph (a) of the said subsection (4) has been made in respect of the expenditure.
Allowances or charges falling to be made under this section to or on any person shall be made to or on him in charging the profits or gains of his trade.
Where a person (in this subsection referred to as " the transferee ") acquires a mineral asset from another person (in this subsection referred to as " the transferor "), and the transferee is a body of persons over whom the transferor has control, or the transferor is a body of persons over whom the transferee has control, or both the transferee and the transferor are bodies of persons and some other person has control over both of them, the capital expenditure incurred by the transferee on the acquisition of the asset shall be taken for the purposes of this section (including this subsection) not to exceed the capital expenditure incurred by the transferor on its acquisition by him or, where the asset consists of an interest or right granted by the transferor, so much of the capital expenditure so incurred by the transferor as, on a just apportionment, is referable to that interest or right; and the expenditure incurred by the transferee shall where necessary be treated as reduced accordingly.
Where in the basis period for any year of assessment a person, having previously incurred capital expenditure on the acquisition of a mineral asset the acquisition of which entitled him to work a source, incurs for the purposes of the trade capital expenditure on the acquisition of another mineral asset the acquisition of which entitles him to work the same source, this section shall apply as respects that year and subsequent years of assessment as if the assets were one mineral asset capital expenditure on the acquisition of which was incurred by him when he incurred the first-mentioned expenditure and was of an amount equal to the aggregate of that expenditure and the further expenditure: Provided that where the first-mentioned expenditure was incurred before the 4th April 1963 and the further expenditure on or after that date— If the asset to which the further expenditure relates extends to mineral deposits or land not included in the asset to which the first-mentioned expenditure relates, so much of it as so extends shall be treated for the purposes of this section as a separate mineral asset, and the further expenditure shall be apportioned between the assets as may be just.
no greater allowances shall for the purpose of subsection (3) of this section be deemed by reason of this subsection to have been made before that date;
the cost of acquiring output got before that date, as computed under subsection (5) of this section, shall not by reason of this subsection be treated as increased.
References in this section to expenditure on the acquisition of an asset do not include— and where expenditure was incurred on the acquisition of an asset in respect of which, for years of assessment previous to a year for which he first becomes entitled in respect of the expenditure to an allowance under this section, the person incurring the expenditure has been allowed any deductions under Schedule 9 to this Act, the expenditure shall be treated for the purposes of this section as reduced by so much of those deductions as, if he had been entitled to an allowance under this section for earlier years, would have been excluded by paragraph 5 of that Schedule.
expenditure to which Chapter III of Part X of the Act of 1952 applies; or
expenditure on machinery or plant, or on any asset which has been treated for any year of assessment as machinery or plant; or
expenditure on any building or structure,
In this section—
" output " in relation to a source, means mineral deposits lifted or extracted from the source ;
Subject to the provisions of this section, the Income Tax Acts shall have effect, and this section shall be construed, as if it were contained in Part X of the Act of 1952: Provided that the provisions of the said Part X shall apply in relation to this section subject to the following modifications, that is to say—
section 323(1) shall be deemed to require a claim for an allowance to be made in such form and accompanied by such plans and other particulars as the Commissioners of Inland Revenue may direct;
section 325(2) (meaning of " basis period ") shall apply for the purposes of subsection (2) of this section with the omission of the proviso ;
in section 326(1) (apportionment of the consideration on sales etc.) the reference to expenditure incurred on the provision or the purchase of property shall be deemed to include a reference to expenditure on the acquisition of a mineral asset;
section 327 and Schedule 14 shall not apply, so how ever that paragraph 2 of that Schedule (but not paragraph 4) shall apply for determining the amount of any capital sum accruing to a person by virtue of his acquisition of a mineral asset.
The foregoing provisions of this section shall have effect only for the year 1963-64 and subsequent years of assessment but for that purpose shall apply in relation to expenditure incurred and other things done before as well as after the beginning of the year 1963-64.
Subject to the provisions of this section, annual allowances under Chapter II of Part X of the Act of 1952 in respect of capital expenditure incurred after the 3rd April 1963 on the provision of new machinery or plant (not being mobile equipment) for use in a development district for industrial purposes shall be computed in accordance with section 281 (normal method of computation) of the Act of 1952 as if, instead of requiring an annual allowance to be five-fourths of the percentage therein specified of the relevant capital amount, that section required it to be so much of that amount as is specified by the person to whom the allowance is to be made in making his claim for the allowance; and accordingly (but subject as aforesaid) neither section 35 of this Act nor section 282 (alternative method of computation), 284 (special method for mines, etc.) or 285 (adjustments in cases of abnormal use) of the Act of 1952 shall apply in relation to such allowances.
If, during the basis period for any year of assessment and within the three years beginning when it was first put into use, any machinery or plant is used— the foregoing subsection shall not apply to the annual allowance in respect of the machinery or plant for that or any subsequent year of assessment and shall be deemed not to have applied to the annual allowance in respect thereof for any previous year of assessment.
in a place which is not included in any development district, or
for purposes other than industrial purposes, or
in a building or structure prevented by section 271(3) (dwelling-houses, retail shops, showrooms, hotels and offices) of the Act of 1952 from being an industrial building or structure within the meaning of Chapter I of Part X of that Act,
Subsection (1) of this section shall not apply to annual allowances falling to be made to a person in respect of expenditure on the provision of machinery or plant treated as incurred by him by virtue of section 299 of the Act of 1952 (allowances to lessees) unless the contract of letting provides that he shall or may become the owner of the machinery or plant on the performance of the contract; and where the contract so provides, but without becoming the owner of the machinery or plant he ceases to be entitled (otherwise than on his death) to the benefit of the contract so far as it relates to the machinery or plant, the said subsection (1) shall be deemed not to have applied to annual allowances falling to be made to him in respect of the machinery or plant.
Where subsection (1) of this section is to be deemed not to have applied to annual allowances for any year of assessment, there shall be made all such additional assessments and adjustments of assessments as may be necessary.
A district shall be treated as being a development district within the meaning of this section— and a certificate given by a person authorised in that behalf by the President of the Board of Trade and stating that at the time or during the period specified in the certificate a place in Great Britain was or was not included in any development district shall be conclusive for the purposes of this section.
if and so long as, being within Great Britain, it is for the purposes of the Local Employment Act 1960 a development district as defined by section 1(2) of that Act, or
if it is within Northern Ireland,
In relation to any new town outside a development district which draws or will draw its population mainly from the district, this section shall apply as if the new town were included in the district, and a certificate given by a person authorised in that behalf by the Minister of Housing and Local Government, or (where the new town is in Scotland) the Secretary of State, and stating whether or not a new town draws or will draw its population mainly from a specified district shall be conclusive for the purposes of this subsection.
Where a district in Great Britain ceases at any time to be a development district, this section shall apply in relation to the following machinery or plant as if the district had continued to be a development district, that is to say—
machinery or plant which at that time is within, and has before that time been used in, the district;
machinery or plant provided for use in the district under a contract entered into before that time ;
machinery or plant provided for use in the district under a contract entered into within two years after that time and in the case of which the following conditions are satisfied—
that it is for use in or about a building or structure provided for use for industrial purposes under a contract entered into after the 3rd April 1963, or is for use in conjunction with other machinery or plant so provided, and
that its provision was required for the fulfilment of the purpose for which the building or structure or, as the case may be, the other machinery or plant was provided, and
that contracts for the provision of a substantial proportion of the assets required for the fulfilment of that purpose had been entered into before the district ceased to be a development district.

Subsections (5), (6) and (7) of the foregoing section shall apply for the purposes of this section as they apply for the purposes of that section, but so that the said subsection (7) shall apply as if references to machinery or plant included references to works expenditure on the construction of which is expenditure to which the said Chapter III applies, and as if, in the application of paragraph (c) of that subsection to such works, references to a building or structure were omitted.

In this section—
Subject to subsections (1A) to (3) below and to the following provisions of this Part of this Act, the stamp duty chargeable under the heading “Conveyance or Transfer on sale” in Schedule 1 to the Stamp Act 1891 shall be charged by reference to the amount or value of the consideration for the sale at the following rates, that is to say—

The amount to be allowed by way of initial allowance for any one vehicle shall not exceed six hundred pounds (whether the allowance falls to be made by reference to lump sum expenditure or by reference to the amounts of instalments), the references in paragraph 3(2) of Schedule 14 to the Act of 1952 to seven-tenths of the limit of recharge on the seller having effect accordingly as references to the limit of recharge reduced by six hundred pounds.
The amount of an annual allowance shall not exceed five hundred pounds ; and—
where the amount of an annual allowance, if calculated in accordance with section 281 (normal method of calculating annual allowances) of the Act of 1952, would be reduced by the foregoing provisions of this subsection the allowance shall be so calculated ;
section 291 of that Act (annual allowances where previous use has not attracted full allowances) shall have effect as if at the end of subsection (1) thereof there were added " and in any case where the machinery or plant was not in fact used for the purposes of the trade in the first of those previous years (whether or not the trade was then being carried on) there shall be deemed to have been made to him for that year the maximum allowances permitted by subsections (2) and (3) of section 41 of the Finance Act 1963 ".
Where apart from this subsection a balancing allowance would fall to be made in respect of any vehicle, and the event giving rise to the allowance takes place within the basis period for a year of assessment as respects which the foregoing subsection would operate to reduce the amount of any annual allowance falling to be made in respect of the vehicle, or would so operate but for any provision of the Income Tax Acts (other than this section) reducing annual allowances.—
if the person to whom the balancing allowance would fall to be made proves that as respects the period during which the vehicle has been used for the purposes of his trade the amount (if any) falling to be made to him by way of annual allowances in respect of the vehicle is less than an amount at a rate of five hundred pounds a year, the amount of the balancing allowance shall not exceed the amount of the difference, increased, if any amount which could have been allowed by way of initial allowance was not claimed, by that amount;
in any other case no balancing allowance shall be made unless any amount which could have been allowed by way of initial allowance was not claimed, and if so the balancing allowance shall not exceed that amount.
It is hereby declared that the provisions of the Income Tax Acts (other than this section) which in special circumstances reduce initial or annual allowances, and balancing allowances, apply to allowances after modification by the foregoing provisions of this section ; and in particular—
the reference in section 286 of the Act of 1952 to an annual allowance computed in accordance with the preceding provisions of Chapter II of Part )( of that Act includes a reference to an annual allowance computed in accordance with those provisions and the foregoing provisions of this section;
where, in a case falling within section 293 or the proviso to section 294 of that Act (effect on balancing allowances of part-time use otherwise than for trade purposes, and of subsidies for wear and tear), it is just and reasonable that the foregoing subsection should apply with the substitution for the reference to five hundred pounds of a reference to a smaller amount, that subsection shall so apply, without prejudice to the determination in accordance with the said section 293 or the said proviso whether any balancing allowance falls to be made, or would fall to be made apart from the foregoing subsection.

Section 296(1) of the Act of 1952 (optional treatment of balancing charge in certain cases of replacement) shall not have effect where the vehicle is the new plant referred to in that subsection, and this provision shall apply in relation to balancing charges as well as in relation to initial and annual allowances.

so much of the aggregate of the payments for the hire of the vehicle and of any payment for the acquisition thereof as does not exceed the retail price of the vehicle at the time it was made shall be treated as capital expenditure incurred in the provision of the vehicle, and as having been incurred when the hiring began, and
the payments to be treated as expenditure on the hiring of the vehicle shall be rateably reduced so as to amount in the aggregate to the balance.

Where by reason of any change of circumstances a lease ceases to be, or becomes, a tenant's repairing lease or ceases to be, or becomes, a lease at a full rent, paragraphs 3 and 4 of this Schedule shall apply in relation to the lease as it subsists after the change of circumstances as if it were a new lease granted when the change occurred.
Where the person chargeable retains possession of a part of any premises and that part is used in common by persons respectively occupying other parts of the premises, the foregoing provisions of this Schedule shall apply as if a payment made in respect of the part used in common had been made in respect of those other parts.
This paragraph shall apply to an estate if, at the end of the year 1962-63, the land then comprised therein was managed as one estate and the owner for the time being of the estate by notice in writing to the surveyor so elects, but such an election— Where in any year of assessment the estate comprises premises not included in it at the end of the year 1962-63, sub-paragraph (1) of this paragraph (except the proviso) shall apply in relation to the year of assessment as if the premises were not included in the estate in the year: Provided that where at the end of the year 1962-63 the owner of the remainder of the estate, as then subsisting, was entitled under trusts arising under a settlement or on an intestacy, or was entitled (in Scotland) under a disposition by way of liferent and feu, to an interest such that, on the occurrence of some future event or events, he might become the owner of the said premises, this sub-paragraph shall not apply to the premises if at any time before the end of the year 1962-63 the premises and the remainder of the estate, as then subsisting, were together managed as one estate. In this paragraph " estate" means land in one ownership managed as one estate.
Where in relation to any premises— and, in respect of a lease granted out of, or disposition of, the lease, estate or interest in respect of which tax so became or would have become chargeable on the said amount (in this and the two following paragraphs referred to as " the amount chargeable on the superior interest"), a person would apart from this paragraph be chargeable under the said provisions on any amount (in this and the following paragraph referred to as " the later chargeable amount"), the amount on which he is so chargeable shall, where no claim is or can be made by him under section 22(6) of this Act, be the excess (if any) of the later chargeable amount over the appropriate fraction of the amount chargeable on the superior interest. Where a person would apart from this paragraph be so chargeable in respect of a lease or disposition which extends to a part only of the said premises, the amount on which he is so chargeable shall, where no claim is or can be made by him under section 22(6) of this Act, be the excess (if any) of the later chargeable amount over so much of the appropriate fraction of the amount chargeable on the superior interest as, on a just apportionment, is attributable to that part of the premises. For the purposes of this and the following paragraph the appropriate fraction of the amount chargeable on the superior interest is the sum which bears to that amount the same proportion as the period in respect of which the later chargeable amount arose bears to the period in respect of which the amount chargeable on the superior interest arose, and for those purposes the period in respect of which an amount arose—
Where in relation to any premises tax has or would have become chargeable as mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(a) or (b) of the foregoing paragraph in respect of a lease, estate or interest, then, subject to the provisions of the following sub-paragraph, the person for the time being entitled to the lease, estate or interest shall be treated for the purpose of deductions under the foregoing provisions of this Schedule from rent receivable by him in respect of those or other premises as paying rent for those premises (in addition to any actual rent), becoming due from day to day, during any part of the period in respect of which the amount chargeable on the superior interest arose for which he was entitled to the lease, estate or interest, and in all bearing to that amount the same proportion as that part of the period bears to the whole. Where the foregoing paragraph has effect in relation to a lease granted out of, or disposition of, the lease, estate or interest in respect of which tax has or would have become so chargeable, sub-paragraph (1) above shall apply for the period in respect of which the later chargeable amount arose only if the appropriate fraction of the amount chargeable on the superior interest exceeds the later chargeable amount, and shall then apply as if the amount chargeable on the superior interest were reduced in the proportion which the said excess bears to the said appropriate fraction : Provided that where the lease so granted, or the said disposition, extends to a part only of the premises, sub-paragraph (1) above and this sub-paragraph shall be applied separately in relation to that part and to the remainder of the premises, but as if for any reference to the amount chargeable on the superior interest there were substituted a reference to that amount proportionately adjusted.
Where the amount chargeable on the superior interest arose under section 22(2) of this Act by reason of an obligation which included the carrying out of work in respect of which any allowance has fallen or will fall to be made under Part )( or Part )(I of the Act of 1952, paragraphs 8 and 9 of this Schedule shall apply as if the obligation had not included the carrying out of that work and the said amount had been calculated accordingly. Where an amount relevant for the purposes of paragraph 8 or 9 of this Schedule arose under section 24 of this Act and the reconveyance or grant in question takes place at a price different from that taken in calculating the amount or on a date different from that taken in determining the period in respect of which the amount arose, that paragraph shall be deemed to have had effect (for all relevant years of assessment) as it would have had effect if the actual price or date had been so taken, and such adjustment of liability to tax shall be made, by means of an additional assessment or otherwise, as may be necessary and may be so made at any time at which it could be made if it related only to tax for the year of assessment in which the reconveyance or grant takes place.
Except as provided by this and the following paragraph, no payment shall be deductible under the foregoing provisions of this Schedule if made before the beginning of the year 1964-65. If the cost to the owner of any premises of maintenance, repairs, insurance and management during the five years ending with the year 1963-64 exceeded the relief available to him in respect of those five years, the excess shall be treated for the purposes of the foregoing provisions of this Schedule as if it were a payment in relation to the premises made by him in the year 1964-65 in respect of dilapidation attributable to that year: Provided that there shall be disregarded for the purposes of this sub-paragraph— and where during any period the owner was in occupation of a part only of the premises there shall be disregarded for those purposes so much of any payment made during the period, or relief available to him in respect of the period, as is attributable to that part. Where relief available in respect of any land managed as one estate fell to be computed in accordance with section 101(4) of the Act of 1952, payments made in respect of the estate, and the relief so available, shall for the purposes of the foregoing sub-paragraph be treated as apportioned between the premises comprised in the estate in accordance with their annual values for purposes of Schedule A, but so that as respects any premises in relation to which the owner was chargeable under section 175 of the Act of 1952 (excess rents) the annual value shall be taken to be that determined as mentioned in subsection (1) of that section. References in this paragraph to relief available to a person in respect of any premises are references to relief which was or, on a claim in that behalf, could have been allowed to him in respect of the premises under sections 99 to 101 or 176(1)(g) of the Act of 1952.
If, in respect of any payment such as is mentioned in paragraph 1 of this Schedule made by a person in relation to any premises before the beginning of the year 1964-65, a loss is by virtue of section 346 of the Act of 1952 (relief in respect of losses under Case VI of Schedule D) carried forward to that year, the amount of the loss shall be treated for the purposes of the foregoing provisions of this Schedule as if it were a like payment made by that person in respect of the premises in, and in respect of, that year. Where by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) above a deduction falls to be made in any year it shall be made notwithstanding anything in subsection (3) of the said section 346 (which requires relief under that section to be given as far as possible from the first subsequent Case VI assessment), and relief shall not be given under that section in respect of a loss in so far as a deduction in respect of it is made under this paragraph.
Subject to the provisions of this Schedule, where the sum to which a person becomes entitled in the year of assessment is a sum other than rent payable under a lease there shall be deducted from that sum such amounts (if any) as are expressed to be deductible under the following sub-paragraph. There shall be deductible—
No payment shall be deductible under the foregoing paragraph if made before the beginning of the year 1964-65 : Provided that this paragraph shall not prevent the deduction of a payment in so far as a loss in respect of the payment is by virtue of section 346 of the Act of 1952 (relief in respect of losses under Case VI of Schedule D) carried forward to that year, and where the deduction falls to be made it shall be made notwithstanding anything in subsection (3) of that section (which requires relief to be given as far as possible from the first subsequent Case VI assessment), and to the extent that it is made relief shall not be given under that section.
Where the person entitled to possession of any land is in the practice of granting sporting rights over the land for payment, but in any year of assessment such rights are for any reason not granted by him, the aggregate of any amounts paid by him which, if such rights had been granted in the year, would have been deductible under paragraph 13 above from payments receivable by him in respect of the grant shall be treated for the purposes of paragraph 4 of this Schedule as a deduction which by virtue of paragraph 2 thereof might have been made by him from rent to which he was entitled for that year under a lease of the land, being a lease at a full rent: Provided that if in the year sporting rights over the land are exercised by that person or by any other person at his invitation or, where the first mentioned person is a company to which section 245 of the Act of 1952 applies, by any person who is a director or member of the company within the meaning of Chapter III of Part IX of that Act, the aggregate of the said amounts shall be treated as reduced by an amount equal to the price which might reasonably be expected to have been paid for that exercise of the rights if the person exercising them had had to give full consideration therefor. For the purposes of the proviso to the foregoing sub-paragraph, an exercise of sporting rights shall be disregarded if it gives rise to a charge to tax under Schedule E by virtue of section 161 (benefits to directors etc.) of the Act of 1952. In this paragraph " sporting rights " means rights of fowling, shooting or fishing, or of taking or killing game, deer or rabbits.
Where in any year of assessment the owner or tenant of any premises incurs expenditure in the making of any sea wall or other embankment necessary for the preservation or protection of the premises against the encroachment or overflowing of the sea or any tidal river, he shall be treated for the purposes of this Schedule as making, in that year of assessment and in each of the succeeding twenty years of assessment, a payment in relation to the premises preserved or protected by the embankment of an amount equal to a twenty-first part of the expenditure and incurred in respect of dilapidation attributable to the year. In relation to expenditure in respect of which an allowance under section 94(1)(c) of the Act of 1952 would, but for the provisions of this Act, have fallen to be made in respect of the premises for the year 1964-65, the foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall apply as if the expenditure had been incurred in the year of assessment following that in which it was actually incurred and, so far as the expenditure was incurred in repairing the embankment in question, shall apply as if it had been incurred in making it, but those provisions shall not otherwise apply to expenditure incurred before the beginning of the year 1964-65: Provided that the person who under the foregoing provisions of this sub-paragraph would be treated, in respect of expenditure incurred in repairing the embankment, as having made in the year 1964-65 a payment as mentioned in sub-paragraph (1) of this paragraph may before the expiration of the year 1965-66 by notice in writing to the surveyor claim that so much of that expenditure as exceeded the total allowances made in respect of it under the said section 94(1)(c) shall instead be treated for the purposes of this Schedule as if it had been an amount paid by him in respect of the maintenance of the premises preserved or protected by the embankment in, and in respect of, the year 1964-65. This paragraph shall not apply in relation to any expenditure in respect of which an allowance has been made under Part X or Part XI of the Act of 1952.
Subject to the provisions of this paragraph, where a sum or part of a sum deductible under the foregoing provisions of this Schedule can be deducted for the year of assessment in which the sum is paid it shall be so deducted, and where it cannot it shall be deducted for the earliest year of assessment for which it can be deducted. Where for any year of assessment the amount from which deductions can be made under the foregoing provisions of this Schedule is sufficient to allow the' deduction therefrom of some, but not all, of different sums or parts of sums deductible under those provisions, the sum or parts to be deducted for that year shall in the aggregate be equal to the said amount, and subject to that requirement shall be such as the person whose liability to tax is in question may choose. No deduction shall be made under this Schedule in respect of a payment made by a person— An amount or pant of an amount shall not be deducted under this Schedule more than once from any sum or from more than one sum, and shall not in any case be deducted thereunder if it has been otherwise allowed as a deduction in computing the income of any person for purposes of income tax. Where, on account of a payment made in any year of assessment, a deduction falls to be made under this Schedule from any rents or receipts to which the person making the payment became entitled in a previous year, all such adjustments of liability to tax shall be made, by repayment or otherwise, as may be necessary to give effect to the deduction.
This Schedule has effect subject to the provisions of sections 476 and 477 of the Act of 1952.
In this Schedule references to a lease extend only to a lease conferring a right, as against the person whose interest is subject to the lease, to the possession of premises; and for the purposes of this Schedule a lease shall be taken to be at a full rent if the rent reserved under the lease (including an appropriate sum in respect of any premium under the lease) is sufficient, taking one year with another, to defray the cost to the lessor of fulfilling his obligations under the lease and of meeting any expenses of maintenance, repairs, insurance and management of the premises subject to the lease which fall to be borne by him.
" tenant's repairing lease " means a lease where the lessee is under an obligation to maintain and repair the whole, or substantially the whole, of the premises comprised in the lease,
Sections 20, 28, 47, Schedules 4, 12.
The annual value shall be taken to be the rent which might reasonably be expected to be obtained on a letting from year to year if the tenant undertook to pay all usual tenant's rates and taxes, and if the landlord undertook to bear the costs of the repairs and insurance, and the other expenses, if any, necessary for maintaining the subject of the valuation in a state to command that rent.
Section 6 of the Rating and Valuation Act 1961 (adjustment of gross value by reference to provision of or payment for services, etc.) shall apply for the purposes of the foregoing paragraph, and in relation to land in Scotland or Northern Ireland shall apply as if it extended to the whole of the United Kingdom.
Section 25.
The relief shall be computed in accordance with the following provisions of this Schedule, and in those provisions—
" chargeable sum " means an amount to which, under subsection (1), (2), (3) or (4) of section 22 of this Act, the claimant is treated as becoming entitled in the year of assessment, or in respect of which he is, by virtue of subsection (5) of that section or section 23 or 24 of this Act chargeable to tax for the year under Case VI of Schedule D ;
" yearly equivalent ", in relation to any chargeable sum, means the amount which bears to that sum the same proportion as one bears to the number of years and fractions of years in the relevant period.
There shall be computed— and the relief shall consist of a reduction or repayment of tax equal to the difference between those amounts.
the amount of the tax which, in respect of the chargeable sum or the aggregate of the chargeable sums, as the case may be, would be chargeable if—
the relief were not given, and
that sum or aggregate were treated as the highest part of the claimant's total income, and
amounts deductible in computing the tax were so far as possible deducted from other sums from which they are deductible in the year rather than from that sum or aggregate ; and
the amount of the tax which, in respect of that sum or aggregate, would be chargeable if calculated by reference to the yearly equivalent of that sum or of each sum comprised in that aggregate, as the case may be, in accordance with the following paragraph,
Where the relief is to be given in respect of one chargeable sum only, the tax shall be calculated for the purposes of paragraph 2(b) of this Schedule as follows, that is to say— and whether or not any such balance remains the tax shall be arrived at by applying the said rate or rates to so much of the chargeable sum as remains after deducting such amounts as, following the principle set out in the said paragraph 2(a)(iii) are deductible from that sum. Where the relief is to be given in respect of two or more chargeable sums, the tax for each shall be calculated for the said purposes as provided by the foregoing sub-paragraph, but so mat— Where two or more chargeable sums arise in respect of relevant periods of equal duration they shall be treated for the purposes of this paragraph as a single chargeable sum of an amount equal to the aggregate of those sums and arising in respect of a relevant period of like duration.
A provision of paragraph 2 or 3 of this Schedule requiring tax to be calculated as if an amount were treated as the highest part of the claimant's total income shall apply notwithstanding any provision of the Income Tax Acts directing other income to be treated as the highest part of his total income, but for the purposes of those paragraphs his total income shall be deemed not to include any amount in respect of which he is chargeable to tax under section 37 of the Finance Act 1960 (payments on retirement or removal from office or employment).
A provision of paragraph 2 or 3 of this Schedule shall apply in relation to any part of the claimant's total income (as computed for the purpose of that provision) as respects which he would be entitled under Part VIII of the Act of 1952 (personal and other reliefs) to a deduction equal to tax at the standard rate on that part as if that part were subject to a nil rate of tax, and shall apply in relation to any part thereof as respects which he would be entitled under section 220 of that Act (reduced rate relief) to a deduction equal to tax at any other rate on that part as if that part were subject to a rate of tax equal to the difference between the standard rate and that other rate.
Sections 224 and 227 of the Act of 1952 shall apply, subject to any necessary modifications, in relation to claims for relief under this Schedule as they apply in relation to claims for relief under Part VIII of that Act, and a claim for relief under this Schedule in respect of surtax may be made to the Special Commissioners by an individual at the time of making his return for the year of assessment for the purposes of surtax or at any subsequent time not later than six years after the end of the year of assessment. Except in relation to a claim in respect of surtax, section 19 of this Act shall not apply as respects relief under this Schedule, and in relation to a claim in respect of surtax shall apply as if references to the surveyor and the Commissioners concerned were references to the Special Commissioners, and as if proviso (c) were omitted.
For the purposes of any provision of the Income Tax Acts (other than this Schedule) requiring income of any description to be treated as the highest part of a person's income, his income shall be calculated without regard to any chargeable sum; and where for any year of assessment a person claims relief both under this Schedule and under paragraph 7 of Schedule 4 to the Finance Act 1960 then, in calculating relief under the said paragraph 7, the claimant's income shall be deemed to include, in respect of any chargeable sum (including two or more sums treated for the purposes of paragraph 3 of this Schedule as one chargeable sum), no greater amount than the balance (if any) of the yearly equivalent thereof remaining after the making of any deduction required by the said paragraph 3.
Section 26, Schedule 12.
Mines and quarries (including gravel pits, sand pits and brickfields).
Ironworks, gasworks, salt springs or works, alum mines or works (not being mines falling within the preceding paragraph), and waterworks and streams of water.

Section 29.
Subject to the provisions of this Schedule, an allowance under this Schedule shall be made to the person carrying on a trade where land which was occupied by him at any time before the end of the year 1962-63 for the purposes of the trade permanently ceases to be occupied by him for those purposes.
The amount of the allowance shall be the excess of—
the aggregate of any deductions in respect of the annual value of the land which, by virtue of section 136 of the Act of 1952, would have been made in computing the profits or gains of the trade for the years 1963-64 and 1964-65 but for section 29 (1) of this Act and the repeal by this Act of the said section 136, over
the aggregate of any deductions relating to the land made in computing the profits or gains of the trade for those years, being—
deductions permitted by section 29 (2) of this Act, so far as made in respect of the period in respect of which the deductions mentioned in paragraph (a) above would have been made, or
deductions in respect of rent from which an amount representing tax was deducted under section 173 of the Act of 1952, so far as made in respect of that period.
The allowance shall be made by—
treating the amount of it as rent paid for the land by the said person (in addition to any actual rent) becoming due from day to day during the period defined in paragraph 4 of this Schedule, and
allowing deductions accordingly in computing the profits or gains of the trade chargeable under Case I of Schedule D for any year of assessment the profits or gains for which fall to computed by reference to a period including that period or any part thereof.
The said period is that ending when the land permanently ceases to be occupied by the said person for the purposes of the trade, and of a duration equal to the aggregate of—
the number of months and fractions of months during which the land was occupied by him for the purposes of the trade in so much of the period by reference to which the profits or gains of the trade for the year 1963-64 fall to be computed as fell before the beginning of that year, and
the number of months and fractions of months during which the land was so occupied in so much of the period by reference to which the profits or gains of the trade for the year 1964-65 fall to be computed as fell before the beginning of the year 1963-64.
No allowance shall be made under this Schedule where the date on which the land permanently ceases to be occupied by the said person for the purposes of the trade—
falls within a year of assessment and also within a period by reference to which the profits or gains of the trade for that year of assessment fall to be computed, or
falls within a year of assessment in which he permanently ceases to carry on the trade.
Where there is a change in the persons carrying on the trade, but by virtue of section 19(3) of the Finance Act 1953 or section 17(1) of the Finance Act 1954 the trade does not by reason of the change fall to be treated for any of the purposes of the Income Tax Acts as permanently discontinued, this Schedule (including this paragraph) shall apply as if any occupation of the land before the change occurred by ithe persons carrying on the trade immediately before it occurred were occupation by the persons carrying on the trade immediately after it occurred.
Where, by reason of a change in the persons carrying on the trade, the trade falls to be treated for any of the purposes of the Income Tax Acts as permanently discontinued, a person engaged in carrying on the trade immediately before the change occurred who continues to be so engaged immediately after it occurred shall be treated for the purposes of this Schedule as not having been in occupation of the land at any time before it occurred.
The foregoing provisions of this Schedule shall apply in relation to a profession or vocation as they apply in relation to a trade, but as if the reference in paragraph 3 to Case I of Schedule D were a reference to Case II of that Schedule.
Sections 29, 37, 69.
In this Schedule:—
Subject to the provisions of this Schedule, where during any part of the relevant period the land in relation to which the amount chargeable arose is occupied by the person for the time being entitled to the lease, estate or interest as respects which it arose for the purposes of a trade, profession or vocation carried on by him, he shall be treated, in computing the profits or gains of the trade, profession or vocation chargeable to tax under Case I or II of Schedule D, as paying in respect of that land rent for the period (in addition to any actual rent) becoming due from day to day of an amount which bears to the amount chargeable the same proportion as that part of the relevant period bears to the whole.
As respects any period during which a part only of the land in relation to which the amount chargeable arose is occupied as mentioned in the foregoing paragraph, that paragraph shall apply as if the whole were so occupied, but the amount chargeable shall be treated as reduced by so much thereof as, on a just apportionment, is attributable to the remainder of the land.
Where a person, although not in occupation of the said land or a part thereof, deals with his interest in the land or that part as property employed for the purposes of a trade, profession or vocation carried on by him, paragraphs 2 and 3 of this Schedule shall apply as if the land or part were occupied by him for those purposes: Provided that—
where paragraph 8 of Schedule 4 to this Act has effect in relation to a lease granted out of that interest, paragraph 9(2) of that Schedule shall apply for modifying the operation of the said paragraphs 2 and 3 as it applies for modifying the operation of paragraph 9(1) of that Schedule ;
in computing profits or gains for any year of assessment, rent shall not by virtue of this paragraph be treated as paid by a person for any period in respect of land in so far as rent treated under paragraph 9 of Schedule 4 to this Act as paid by him for that period in respect of the land has in any previous year of assessment been deducted, or falls in that year to be deducted, under that Schedule.
Where, in respect of expenditure on the acquisition of his interest in the land in relation to which the amount chargeable arose, a person has become entitled to an allowance under section 37 of this Act (mineral depletion) for any year of assessment, then—
if the allowance is in respect of the whole of the expenditure, no deduction shall be allowed him under this Schedule for that or any subsequent year, or
if the allowance is in respect of part only of the expenditure, a deduction allowed him under this Schedule for that or any subsequent year shall be of an amount bearing to the amount which apart from this paragraph would fall to be deducted the same proportion as the remainder of the expenditure bears to the whole.
Where the amount chargeable arose under section 22(2) of this Act by reason of an obligation which included the carrying out of work in respect of which any allowance has fallen or will fall to be made under Part X or Part XI of the Act of 1952, this Schedule shall apply as if the obligation had not included the carrying out of that work and the amount chargeable had been calculated accordingly.
Where the amount chargeable arose under section 24 of this Act and the reconveyance or grant in question takes place at a price different from that taken in calculating that amount or on a date different from that taken in determining the relevant period, the foregoing provisions of this Schedule shall be deemed to have had effect (for all relevant years of assessment) as they would have had effect if the actual price or date had been so taken, and such adjustment of liability to tax shall be made, by means of an additional assessment or otherwise, as may be necessary and may be so made at any time at which it could be made if it related only to tax for the year of assessment in which the reconveyance or grant takes place.
Sections 43, 69.
A claim under section 43 of this Act shall be made to the surveyor, and shall not be made later than two years after the end of the year of assessment to which, or to a part of which, it relates.
No such claim shall have effect unless it is proved that during the year or part of a year to which the claim relates— Provided that where the Commissioners of Inland Revenue are satisfied that the requirements of sub-paragraphs (a) to (d) of this paragraph are substantially complied with they may direct that the claim shall have effect, but if subsequently information comes to the knowledge of the Commissioners which satisfies them that the direction was not justified they may revoke the direction and thereupon the liability of all persons concerned to income tax for all relevant years shall be adjusted by the making of assessments or additional assessments or otherwise. For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(b) of this paragraph occupation by any other person in accordance with the will, or the provisions applicable on the intestacy, of a deceased member, shall be treated during the first six months after the death as if it were occupation by a member.
Any such claim shall be in such form and contain such particulars as may be prescribed by the Commissioners of Inland Revenue, and, without prejudice to the generality of this provision, the required particulars may include an authority granted by all members of the association for any relevant information contained in any return or statement made by a member under the provisions of the Income Tax Acts to be used by the Commissioners in such manner as they may think fit for determining whether the claim ought to be allowed.
