Commentary on Sections Glossary History Section 306: Amount of initial allowance and period for which allowance made
1045.This section is based on parts of sections 1(1) and 161(2) and on section 1(5) and (10) of CAA 1990. It provides that initial allowances are 100% of the qualifying enterprise zone expenditure but allows a person to claim less than the full amount.
1046.There is a minor change. Subsection (4) deals with the case in which expenditure is incurred for the purposes of a trade, profession or vocation which has not yet begun. This rule is needed to identify the chargeable period under subsection (3) in respect of which the initial allowance is to be made. In CAA 1990 this applies only for trades. But the addition of professions and vocations follows logically. See Change 36 in Annex 1.
