Aggregation of assessments. |
21.—(1) Where two or more assessments fall to be made on a person under Schedule A, B, D or E, or under two or more of those Schedules,— | |
(a) the tax in the assessments may be stated in one sum, | ||
(b) as regards Schedule A or B in a case in which there are two or more tenements or rateable hereditaments, one assessment may be made on the total of the annual or assessable values, | ||
and the notice of assessment may be stated correspondingly, but particulars of the annual or assessable values comprised in one assessment made pursuant to paragraph (b) of this subsection shall, on request, be given by the inspector of taxes. | ||
(2) A notice of appeal in a case in which subsection (1) of this section applies must, to be valid, indicate each assessment appealed against. | ||
(3) Pending the determination of an appeal against any one or more of such assessments as are referred to in subsection (1) of this section, an amount of tax being a portion of the one sum referred to in that subsection shall be payable on the due date or dates and shall be the amount which results when the appropriate personal reliefs are deducted from the assessments not under appeal or allowed from the tax charged in those assessments (as may be appropriate). | ||
(4) The tax stated in one sum under subsection (1) or the amount payable under subsection (3) of this section shall for the purposes of section 14 of the Finance Act, 1962 , be deemed to be tax charged by an assessment to income tax. | ||
(5) If for any of the purposes of the Income Tax Acts, other than subsection (3) of this section, it becomes necessary to determine what amount of the tax charged is applicable to any one of two or more assessments referred to in subsection (1) of this section— | ||
(a) a certificate from the inspector of taxes indicating the manner in which the deductions, allowances or reliefs were allocated and stating the separate amounts of tax, if any, and the instalments thereof applicable to any one or more assessments or to each assessment shall be sufficient evidence of the charge to tax in and by each such assessment, | ||
(b) where an assessment to which that certificate relates is made under paragraph (b) of subsection (1) of this section, the inspector of taxes may further certify what portion of the amount of the tax charged in and by that assessment is applicable to any of the annual or assessable values, and for the purposes of the Income Tax Acts that portion shall be deemed to be tax charged in and by an assessment. | ||
(6) Notwithstanding the making of one assessment pursuant to paragraph (b) of subsection (1) of this section, the provisions of the Income Tax Acts, other than this section, relating to assessments under Schedule A or B (as the case may be) shall continue to apply as if the tenements or rateable hereditaments had been assessed separately. | ||
(7) In this section “personal reliefs” means any relief under section 32 of the Income Tax Act, 1918, under sections 16 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 and 22 of the Finance Act, 1920 , under section 4 of the Finance Act, 1951 , or under section 17 of the Finance (No. 2) Act, 1959 . |
