This measure changes the rules governing when capital gains tax payments must be made to HMRC in respect of exit charges. Exit charges can arise on unrealised gains when a:
- trust ceases to be resident in the UK
- assets cease to be used in a trade carried on through a branch or agency in the UK.
This measure provides that in certain circumstances payment of these charges can be deferred.
