777 Relief on realisation and reinvestment: application to group member

(1) This section deals with the application of Chapter 7 (roll-over relief in case of realisation and reinvestment) in relation to a company that is a member of a group. (2) Chapter 7 does not apply if the expenditure on other assets is expenditure on the acquisition of assets from another member of the same group by a tax-neutral transfer. (3) Chapter 7 applies as if two companies (“A” and “B”) are the same person if— (a) the realisation of the old asset is by A, (b) at the time of the realisation A is a member of a group, (c) the expenditure on other assets is by B, (d) B is a member of the same group as A at the time the expenditure is incurred (“the expenditure time”), (e) B is not a dual resident investing company within the meaning of section 949 of CTA 2010 (dual resident investing companies) at the expenditure time, (f) immediately after the expenditure time the other assets are chargeable intangible assets in relation to B, and (g) both A and B make a claim for relief under Chapter 7. (4) Expressions used in this section that are defined for the purposes of Chapter 7 have the same meaning in this section. (5) In particular, see section 754 for the meaning of “the old asset” and “the other assets”.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Think it through

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
