HA 26: Attribution when balance dates differ
or “How to handle taxes when financial reporting dates differ (now repealed)”

You could also call this:

“This rule about share value losses no longer applies”

This part of the law is no longer in effect. The section called ‘Attribution when loss results in reduction in value of shares’ was removed on 1 April 2011. This means it doesn’t apply to any income years that started on or after that date. The law used to be about how to handle situations where a loss led to shares becoming less valuable, but now you don’t need to worry about this specific rule anymore.
