EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Instrument and does not purport to be a legal interpretation)

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 2001 are to be increased under section 556 (2) of the Taxes Consolidation Act, 1997 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 complied by the Central Statistics Office expressed on the basis that the consumer price index at mid-November, 1968, is 100.
