EF 5: Use of money interest payable by person
or “You can claim interest paid to Inland Revenue as a tax deduction”

You could also call this:

“This provision about different tax years was removed in 2011”

This part of the law used to talk about different tax years. However, it’s no longer in use. The government removed it on 29 August 2011. This change started to apply from the 2011-12 tax year onwards. The law that made this change is called the Taxation (Tax Administration and Remedial Matters) Act 2011.
