CX 47: Government grants to businesses
or “Government payments to businesses for certain expenses are not taxable income”

You could also call this:

“ This rule about debt forgiveness for new start grants has been removed from the law ”

This part of the law, called ‘Amounts remitted as condition of new start grant’, used to be in the Income Tax Act 2007. However, it has been taken out of the law. This happened on 24 February 2016. The government made this change when they passed a new law with a very long name about taxes and research.
