Part 3: Other amendments

794.This Part inserts new section 367A into ICTA, new section 173A into ITEPA and new sections 372A to 372D into ITA and amends section 1005 of ITA.

Section 367A of ICTA: Alternative finance arrangements

795.This section brings alternative finance arrangements within the scope of sections 353 and 365 of ICTA, which provide for relief for interest payment in certain limited circumstances. It is based on section 51(2) of FA 2005.

Such products are to be treated as loans for the purposes of that Part. They correspond to sections 256 to 259 of CTA 2010 which have effect for the purposes of Part 7 of that Act (community investment tax relief: corporation tax relief).
