(This note is not part of the Regulations)
Schedule 19AB to the Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988 provides that insurance companies carrying on pension business shall be entitled to provisional repayments of tax on pension business investment income. However, during a transitional period, the Commissioners of Inland Revenue may make a provision, by regulations, for the amount of a provisional repayment to be reduced by a prescribed percentage for any accounting period ending during that transitional period. The regulations may prescribe different percentages for accounting periods ending after different dates.
The Insurance Companies (Pension Business) (Transitional Provisions) Regulations 1992 (S.I. 1992/2326) ("the principal Regulations") made provision for the transitional period to apply to accounting periods ending after 2nd October 1992 and before 1st January 1999. The principal Regulations prescribed 7.5 per cent. as the percentage by which the amount of a provisional repayment should be reduced during the transitional period.
Regulation 3 amends the principal Regulations by prescribing 7.5 per cent. as the percentage by which the amount of a provisional repayment shall be reduced where the accounting period ends after 2nd October 1992 and before 1st January 1994, and 12.5 per cent. as the percentage in other cases.
Regulation 4 makes an amendment of a drafting nature to the principal Regulations.
1988 c. 1; Schedule 19AB was inserted by section 49 of, and Schedule 8 to, the Finance Act 1991 (c. 31), and amended by section 103(2)(h) of, and Part III(9) of Schedule 23 to, the Finance Act 1993 (c. 34).
S.I. 1992/2326.
