Commentary on Sections Overview Overview Section 1067: Expenditure on sub-contracted R&D not undertaken in-house
2779.This section identifies the expenditure which qualifies for relief if the company commissions another person to do the research and development. It is based on paragraph 10 to Schedule 12 to FA 2002.
2780.The section does not reproduce the condition in paragraph 10(4) of Schedule 12 to FA 2002 that the expenditure is not of a capital nature. This condition is unnecessary because section 53 in Part 3, the trading income Part, already prohibits a deduction for capital expenditure.
