(a) 5an individual is temporarily non-resident,

(b) a relevant distribution is made or treated as made to the

(c) the tax year in which it is made or treated as made (“the
distribution year”) is a tax year for which the individual is UK

(3) The total income (see Step 1 of the calculation in section 23 of ITA
2007) on which the individual is charged to income tax for the year
of return is to be increased by an amount equal to the amount on
which tax would be charged under this Chapter in respect of the
20distribution disregarding any double taxation relief arrangements.

(4) But the notional UK tax on that distribution is to be allowed as a
credit against the individual’s liability to income tax for the year of
return under Step 6 of the calculation in section 23.

(5) If the distribution year is the year of return, the tax charged under
25this Chapter in respect of the relevant distribution is to be charged
and assessed without regard to the existence of double taxation relief
arrangements.

(6) For the purposes of this section, a dividend or other distribution is a
“relevant distribution” if—

individual was at a relevant time—

(i) a material participator in the company, or

(ii) an associate of a material participator in the company.

(7) 35But a dividend or other distribution within subsection (6) in the form
of a cash dividend is not a “relevant distribution” to the extent that
the dividend is paid in respect of post-departure trade profits.

(8) “Post-departure trade profits” are—

(a) trade profits of the close company arising in an accounting
40period that begins after the start of the temporary period of
non-residence, and

(b) so much of any trade profits of the close company arising in
an accounting period that straddles the start of that
temporary period as is attributable (on a just and reasonable
45basis) to a time after the start of that temporary period.

Finance (No. 2) BillPage 541

(9) The extent to which a dividend is paid in respect of post-departure
trade profits is to be determined on a just and reasonable basis.

(10) The “notional UK tax” on the relevant distribution is so much of the
income tax paid by the individual for the distribution year as is
5attributable on a just and reasonable basis to the relevant
distribution.

(11) If section 393 applies, references in this section to a distribution being
made to the individual are to a cash dividend being paid over to the
individual.

being received by the individual are to a cash dividend being paid
over to the individual or (as the case may be) a dividend being
treated as paid to the individual.

(10) 40In this section—

liable for tax by virtue of subsection (2) (or as preventing a charge to
tax on that gain from arising under this Chapter).

30rules in force for determining an individual’s residence for that pre-
commencement tax year (and not in accordance with the statutory residence
test).

and

(ii) there was no time in that year when the individual
was Treaty non-resident (see paragraph 110(3)).

(3) 40Whether an individual was resident in the UK for a pre-commencement tax
year is to be determined in accordance with the rules in force for
determining an individual’s residence for that pre-commencement tax year
(and not in accordance with the statutory residence test).

155 (1) The existing temporary non-resident provisions, as in force immediately
45before the day on which this Act is passed, continue to have effect on and
after that day in any case where the year of departure (as defined in Part 4 of
this Schedule) is a tax year before the tax year 2013-14.

(2) Where those provisions continue to have effect by virtue of sub-paragraph
(1)—

the tax year 2013-14 or a subsequent tax year is to be determined for
5the purposes of those provisions in accordance with Part 1 of this
Schedule, but
