Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Income Tax (Pay As You Earn) Regulations 2003 (S.I. 2003/2682) which make provision for the assessment, charge, collection and recovery of income tax in respect of pay as you earn income.

Regulation 2 amends regulation 87 to introduce a requirement that any amount paid in respect of mileage allowance payments which is not an approved amount is reported on form P11D. It also introduces a requirement that any amount paid in respect of passenger payments which is not an approved amount is reported on form P11D. These requirements were removed in error by SI 2015/1927.
