# Finance Act 2003, Paragraph 8


(1) This paragraph applies to a transaction (“the relevant transaction”) if—
(a) PAIF seeding relief has been allowed in respect of the transaction,
(b) the main subject-matter of the transaction consists of a chargeable interest in or over land which is or includes a dwelling, and
(c) a non-qualifying individual (see paragraph 9) is permitted to occupy the dwelling at any time on or after the effective date of the transaction.
The dwelling which a non-qualifying individual is permitted to occupy is referred to as “the disqualifying dwelling”.
(2) The relief, or an appropriate proportion of it, is withdrawn, and tax is chargeable in accordance with this paragraph.
This is subject to sub-paragraphs (3) and (4).
(3) Relief is withdrawn only if, at the time a non-qualifying individual is permitted to occupy the disqualifying dwelling, the property AIF holds a chargeable interest in or over that dwelling—
(a) that was acquired by the property AIF under the relevant transaction, or
(b) that is derived from an interest so acquired.
(4) Where a non-qualifying individual is first permitted to occupy the disqualifying dwelling at a time after the end of the control period, relief is withdrawn only if, at that time, the purchaser in the relevant transaction fails to meet the genuine diversity of ownership condition set out in regulation 9A of the AIF (Tax) Regulations.
For the purposes of this sub-paragraph, regulation 9A(2)(a) of those Regulations is to be read as if the words “throughout the accounting period” were omitted.
(5) The amount chargeable is the amount that would have been chargeable in respect of the relevant transaction but for PAIF seeding relief or, as the case may be, an appropriate proportion of the tax that would have been so chargeable.
(6) In sub-paragraphs (2) and (5), an “appropriate proportion” means an appropriate proportion having regard to the extent to which the subject-matter of the relevant transaction was an interest in or over land other than the disqualifying dwelling.
