EXPLANATORY NOTE.

These regulations specify the multipliers by reference to which sums such as the base cost of an asset and enhancement expenditure incurred on it) which are allowable as a deduction from the consideration for the disposal of an asset in the year of assessment 1990-91 are to be increased under section 3 (1) of the Capital Gains Tax (Amendment) Act, 1978 , for the purpose of computing the chargeable gain accruing to a person on such a disposal. The multipliers are derived from the consumer price index numbers compiled by the Central Statistics Office expressed on the basis that the consumer price index at mid-November, 1968, is 100.
