LL 5: Meaning of foreign dividend company net earnings
or “Definition of foreign dividend company earnings removed from law”

You could also call this:

“Removed rule about tax credits for certain foreign dividends”

This part of the law used to talk about ‘Foreign dividend company lower tier UFTCs’. However, it has been removed from the law. The government took it out on 30 June 2009. This means that this specific rule no longer applies. If you want to know more about tax credits, you might need to look at other parts of the Income Tax Act 2007.
