CU 13: Application of sections to non-resident mining operators
or “This section about non-resident mining operators no longer applies”

You could also call this:

“Old rule for getting money back when selling mining shares no longer applies”

This part of the law used to be about getting back some money when you sell shares in a mining company. The money you could get back was called “reinvestment profit”. However, this rule doesn’t exist anymore. It was removed from the law on 1 April 2014. This means that from the 2014-2015 tax year onwards, you can’t use this rule to get money back when you sell mining shares.
