220 Form and amount of CITR

(1) If the investor is eligible for CITR in respect of the investment, the investor may make a claim in respect of the investment for any one or more of the relevant accounting periods. (2) If the investor makes a claim for a relevant accounting period, the investor is entitled to a reduction in the amount of its liability for corporation tax for that period. (3) The amount of that reduction for the relevant accounting period is 5% of the invested amount in respect of the investment for the period. (4) For the purposes of this section and section 220A the “relevant” accounting periods are— (a) the accounting period in which the investment date falls, and (b) each of the accounting periods in which the subsequent 4 anniversaries of that date fall. (5) The investor is entitled to make a claim for CITR for a relevant accounting period if— (a) the investor considers that the conditions for the CITR are for the time being met, and (b) the investor has received a tax relief certificate (see section 229) relating to the investment from the CDFI, but a claim may not be made before the end of the accounting period to which the claim relates. (6) Subsection (5) is subject to the following provisions— (a) section 236 (loans: no claim after disposal or excessive repayments or receipts of value), (b) section 237 (securities or shares: no claim after disposal or excessive receipts of value), (c) section 238 (no claim after loss of accreditation by the CDFI), and (d) section 239 (accreditation of investor).

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.
