EH 49: Refund on death

You could also call this:

“This provision about tax refunds after someone's death has been removed from the law”

This part of the law used to talk about getting a refund when someone dies. However, it was removed from the law on 18 March 2019. This means that this specific rule about refunds after death no longer applies. If you want to know more about what happens to taxes when someone dies, you might need to look at other parts of the tax law.
