18L Meaning of “augmented profits”

(1) For the purposes of this Part a company's “augmented profits” of an accounting period are— (a) the company's taxable total profits of that period, plus (b) any exempt distributions of a qualifying kind received by the company (“R”) that are not excluded. (2) For the purposes of this section a distribution is an “exempt distribution of a qualifying kind” if— (a) it is a distribution for the purposes of the Corporation Tax Acts because (and only because) it falls within paragraph A, B, G or H in section 1000(1), and (b) it is exempt for the purposes of Part 9A of CTA 2009 (company distributions). (3) For the purposes of this section a distribution which R receives from a company (“C”) is excluded if— (a) C is a 51% subsidiary of R or of a company of which R is a 51% subsidiary, or (b) C is a trading company or relevant holding company that is a quasi-subsidiary of R. (4) Section 18M— (a) makes further provision for determining whether a company is a 51% subsidiary of another for the purposes of subsection (3), and (b) defines expressions used in that subsection.

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.

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.
