HA 19: Credit accounts and dividend statements
or “Rules for qualifying companies when paying dividends and reporting them”

You could also call this:

“This rule about assigning tax losses is no longer used”

This part of the law is no longer in effect. It was about how tax losses were assigned in certain situations, but it was removed from the Income Tax Act 2007 on 1 April 2011. This means that from that date onwards, this rule doesn’t apply anymore. If you need to know about current rules for tax losses, you should look at other parts of the law that are still active.
