Details

This measure explains that the rules which apply to restitution interest only apply to awards made at a rate of interest greater than a statutory rate. It also makes changes so that an assessment under part 8C may be made within 2 years of the end of the accounting period in which the restitution claim is finally determined, if the normal assessing time limit has expired.

The government is seeking technical feedback on the draft regulations to:

  • ensure they operate as the government intends
  • identify any areas which need further clarification in more detailed guidance

A technical consultation on the draft regulations runs from 28 April 2025 to 30 May 2025.

To provide comments, email: part8cctaamendments2025@hmrc.gov.uk by 11:59pm on 30 May 2025.
