# The Landfill Disposals Tax (Administration) (Wales) Regulations 2018, Regulation 19: Claims by persons carrying out taxable operations


(1) A registered person who is entitled to customer insolvency credit in respect of a taxable disposal may claim the credit in a tax return made in respect of—
(a) the first qualifying accounting period, or
(b) any subsequent accounting period.
(2) The first qualifying accounting period is the accounting period in which the period of 6 months, beginning with the date of the relevant insolvency event, expires.
(3) The claim is to be made in the tax return—
(a) by setting off the amount of the credit against the amount of tax that the person would otherwise be required to pay under section 42(1) of LDTA in respect of the relevant accounting period, and
(b) if the amount of the credit exceeds that amount of tax, by stating the amount of the excess credit.
(4) Where an amount of excess credit is stated in the tax return in accordance with paragraph (3)(b)—
(a) WRA may set off that amount against any amount of tax that the person is required to pay but has not yet paid, and
(b) if any amount of excess credit remains, WRA must pay the person an amount equal to that remaining amount.
(5) But WRA is not required to make a payment under paragraph (4)(b) unless and until each tax return that the person is required to make in respect of the tax has been made.
(6) In this regulation—
“the relevant insolvency event” (“y digwyddiad ansolfedd perthnasol”) means the insolvency event that gave rise to an entitlement to credit in respect of the taxable disposal;
“the relevant accounting period” (“y cyfnod cyfrifyddu perthnasol”) means the accounting period in respect of which the tax return containing the claim is made.
