    (2)   If the particulars, and any further information given under this paragraph with respect to any transaction or transactions, are not such as to make full and accurate dislosure of all facts and considerations relating thereto which are material to be known to the Inland Revenue, any clearance given by them under this paragraph shall be void.

    (3)   In no event shall the giving of a clearance under this paragraph with respect to any transaction or transactions prevent this paragraph applying to a person in respect of transactions which include that transaction or all or some of those transactions and also include another transaction or other transactions.'.
