# Finance Act 2003, Paragraph 10


(1) A land transaction is exempt from charge if conditions A to D are met.
Relief under this paragraph is referred to in this Part of this Act as “co-ownership scheme seeding relief”.

(3) Condition B is that the main subject-matter of the transaction consists of a major interest in land.

(5) Condition D is that the effective date of the transaction is a day within the seeding period (see paragraph 11).

(5B) In sub-paragraph (5A), “entry notice” has the meaning it has in the Co-ownership Contractual Schemes (Tax) Regulations 2025.
