The references in subsections (2) and (3) of that section (as amended by paragraph 5) to so much of the qualifying expenditure incurred to date as is UK expenditure are to be read as references to so much of the qualifying expenditure incurred to date as—

b

has been incurred on or after that date and is UK expenditure.

But if the exhibition in relation to which sub-paragraph (4) applies has entered production before 1 April 2024, the production company may elect for that sub-paragraph to have effect in relation to that exhibition as if “2025” were substituted for “2024”.

  • UK expenditure” has the same meaning as in that Part after the amendments made by paragraph 4;

  • European expenditure” has the same meanings as in that Part before the amendments made by paragraph 4.
