Schedule 1: Consequential Amendments Part 1: Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988 Paragraph 3: section 1A of ICTA
3341.Section 1A of ICTA is an income tax only provision. As this section is primarily concerned with rates of tax it is not rewritten.
3342.The repeal of Schedule F and Schedule D Cases III, IV, V and VI (for income tax purposes) means that it is now possible to restructure section 1A of ICTA to identify more clearly the types of income within the scope of the section. So, for example, instead of bringing in all income chargeable under Schedule D Case III, and then excluding certain items, it is now possible to focus directly on the income within section 1A of ICTA.
3343.As a result of the revised approach, section 1A(4)(b) of ICTA – dealing with estate income chargeable under section 695(4)(b) or 696(6) of ICTA – can be repealed. Similarly, it is not necessary to retain section 1A(7) of ICTA which effectively brings purchased life annuities within the scope of section 1A of ICTA – such purchased life annuities are now brought in by the consequential amendment to section 1A(2)(a) of ICTA.
