LP 6: Deriving supplementary dividend and breach of terms of trust
or “Rules for paying extra dividends on some shares or to trust beneficiaries”

You could also call this:

“Rules for certain dividend-holding companies no longer apply”

You don’t need to know about supplementary dividend holding companies anymore. The law that used to talk about the requirements for these companies has been removed. This part of the law was taken out on 1 April 2013, so it doesn’t apply to any tax years after that date.
