New paragraph (8) provides that, where a method makes partial provision for the attribution of any input tax, only such part as is not covered by the method shall be attributed on the basis of use.\nA full regulatory impact assessment of the effect that this instrument will have on the costs of businesses is available at www.hmce.gov.uk.",
