The amendments made by paragraph 1 have effect in relation to gifts made on or after 24 March 2010. An amendment corresponding to that made by paragraph 1(2), having effect in relation to gifts made on or after that date, is to be treated as having been made in ICTA. The amendments made by paragraph 2 have effect in relation to payments representing expenditure incurred on or after 24 March.

The threshold of £25,000 in paragraph 1(3) applies whether or not an employee has more than one employment as a relevant banking employee with a taxable company. If relevant remuneration is awarded during the chargeable period to or in respect of a relevant banking employee by reason of the employee's employment as such by a number of associated taxable companies, the threshold in paragraph 1(3) in relation to each of the taxable companies is £25,000 divided by the number of the taxable companies. For this purpose taxable companies are associated if—

This paragraph applies where— A loan is a “relevant” loan if the main purpose, or one of the main purposes, of providing it, or undertaking to provide it, is the reduction or elimination of a liability to bank payroll tax or any other tax or national insurance contributions. The loan is to be regarded as relevant remuneration awarded during the chargeable period to or in respect of the relevant banking employee by reason of the employee's employment as a relevant banking employee; and the amount of the relevant remuneration is to be regarded as the amount which is loaned or (where the amount of the loan is not fixed) the amount which it is reasonable to assume will be loaned. A contractual obligation to provide a relevant loan is taken to arise for the purposes of this paragraph even if provision of it is dependent on compliance by the relevant banking employee with any conditions.

In order to establish the amount of bank payroll tax payable by it, every taxable company must deliver a return to HMRC. The return must be delivered on or before 31 August 2010. A return under this paragraph is referred to as a bank payroll tax return.

A taxable company may amend its bank payroll tax return. An amendment under this paragraph is made by notice to HMRC in such form, and accompanied by such information, as HMRC may reasonably require. No such amendment may be made after 31 August 2011. Nothing in sub-paragraph (1) permits a taxable company to amend its return to revise an amount determined under paragraph 7(2), 12(2) or 13(3) merely because the amount determined under that provision differs from the amount which is actually paid or provided (or loaned).

HMRC may determine to the best of their knowledge and belief the amount of bank payroll tax payable by a taxable company if the company has not delivered a bank payroll tax return on or before 31 August 2010. Notice of the determination— The amount determined by HMRC is taken to be the amount payable by the company (in the same way as if it were an assessment) unless and until the determination is superseded by a relevant assessment. A relevant assessment is an assessment— If— the proceedings may be continued as if they were proceedings for the recovery of so much of the tax shown in the assessment as has not been paid. No determination may be made under this paragraph after 31 August 2013.

This paragraph applies if an order is made under section 104(3) of FA 2009 appointing a day on which sections 101 to 103 of that Act are to come into force for the purposes of bank payroll tax. Part 2 of Schedule 53 to that Act (which makes special provision about the late payment interest start date) has effect for those purposes as if— Interest charged under section 101 of FA 2009 on an amount of bank payroll tax may be enforced as if it were an amount of bank payroll tax payable by the taxable company.

“Relevant remuneration”, in relation to a relevant banking employee of a taxable company, means anything that— Whether or not the relevant banking employee is chargeable to income tax in respect of anything is irrelevant in determining whether or not it is relevant remuneration. Excluded remuneration is not relevant remuneration.

Subject to sub-paragraphs (2) to (4), the amount of any relevant remuneration is— Where relevant remuneration is awarded to or in respect of an employee by virtue of paragraph 6(1)(a) and its amount is not fixed when it is awarded, its amount is such as it is reasonable at that time to assume would be its amount (in accordance with sub-paragraph (1)) if and when paid or provided. Where the market value of any relevant remuneration at the time it is awarded exceeds, or would exceed, what would otherwise be its amount, its amount is that market value. Where anything constituting relevant remuneration is or would be, when awarded, subject to any restriction or restrictions, the restriction is, or restrictions are, to be ignored in arriving at its amount. For this purpose “restriction” means any condition, restriction or other similar provision which causes the value of the relevant remuneration to be less than it otherwise would be.

Paragraph 3 of Schedule 28AB to ICTA (schemes about effect of paying foreign tax) is amended as follows. In sub-paragraph (2)— In sub-paragraph (3)(b), for “the payment by the claimant of that amount of foreign tax” substitute “that amount of foreign tax being paid or payable by the claimant”.

In section 86 of TIOPA 2010 (schemes about claims or elections etc)— The amendments made by this paragraph have effect in relation to amounts of foreign tax payable—

The amendments made by this Schedule have effect in relation to accounting periods that begin on or after 1 April 2010 (“the commencement date”). Where a company has an accounting period (“the straddling accounting period”) that— the straddling accounting period is to be treated as split. Where this paragraph provides that the straddling accounting period is to be treated as split, that part of the straddling accounting period that falls before the commencement date and that part of the straddling accounting period that falls on or after that date are to be treated for the purposes of the amendments made by this Schedule as separate accounting periods. In relation to the first accounting period of a company in relation to which the amendments made by this Schedule have effect—

In FA 2009, in Schedule 6, in paragraph 1(11)—

Chapter 3 of Part 8 of ITA 2007 (relief for gifts by individuals of shares, securities and real property to charities etc) is amended as follows.

This paragraph applies if HMRC discover, with respect to a taxable company, any of the following situations— HMRC may make an assessment (a “discovery assessment”) in the amount or further amount which ought in their opinion to be charged or recovered in order to make good to the Crown the loss of bank payroll tax. If the company has delivered a bank payroll tax return, HMRC may only make a discovery assessment if condition A or condition B is met. Condition A is that the situation discovered by HMRC was brought about carelessly or deliberately by the company or a person acting on its behalf. Condition B is that HMRC could not reasonably have been expected to be aware of the situation at the time when they—

Paragraphs 50 to 51G of Schedule 18 to FA 1998 (overpaid tax etc) apply (so far as relevant) to bank payroll tax assessable for the chargeable period as they apply to corporation tax assessable for an accounting period, subject to the following modifications. With respect to bank payroll tax, a claim under paragraph 51 may not be made after 31 August 2014. For the purposes of paragraph 51E, the relevant restrictions for making a discovery assessment under this Schedule are— Nothing in sub-paragraph (1) permits a taxable company to make a claim under paragraph 51 of Schedule 18 to FA 1998 with respect to bank payroll tax merely because an amount determined under paragraph 7(2), 12(2) or 13(3) differs from the amount which is actually paid or provided (or loaned).

The following provisions of TMA 1970 apply for the purposes of bank payroll tax and this Schedule as they apply for the purposes of corporation tax and the Taxes Acts— The application of section 115 of TMA 1970 in relation to the delivery of bank payroll tax returns is subject to any requirements published under paragraph 19(1) of this Schedule.
