# The Finance Act 1998, Schedule 2 (Assessments in Respect of Drawback) (Appointed Day) Order 2008, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order appoints 1st September 2008 as the day on which paragraph 6 (amending section 2 of the Finance (No.2) Act 1992 (c.48)), and paragraphs 8(3), 9(4) and 10(c) (effecting related amendments concerning section 2) of Schedule 2 to the Finance Act 1998 come into force for the purposes of assessments in respect of drawback of excise duty to which entitlement has been cancelled under any provision contained in the Cider and Perry Regulations 1989, the Wine and Made-wine Regulations 1989 and the Beer Regulations 1993.
Paragraph 6 of Schedule 2 to the Finance Act 1998 amends section 2 of the Finance (No.2) Act 1992 (c.48) (power to provide for drawback of excise duty). It enables the Commissioners for Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs, where an entitlement to drawback of excise duty is cancelled under any provision contained in regulations made under the section, to assess a person prescribed in such regulations for an amount equal to sums paid or credited in respect of the drawback. The person assessed has a right to seek a review by the Commissioners of the assessment and, following the decision by the Commissioners on such a review, a right to appeal against that decision to the VAT and Duties Tribunal.
Paragraphs 8(3), 9(4) and 10(c) of Schedule 2 make consequential amendments to the Finance Act 1994 (c.9).
