OP 73: Consolidated FDPA debit for loss of shareholder continuity

You could also call this:

“Outdated rule about changes in company ownership affecting foreign dividend payments”

This part of the law used to talk about what happens to a consolidated FDP group’s account when there’s a change in who owns the company. FDP stands for foreign dividend payment. The law said there would be a debit, which is like a charge, in the group’s account if the company’s shareholders changed too much. However, this rule doesn’t exist anymore. The government removed it on 1 April 2017. If you want to know more about why they changed this, you can look at section 241(1) of the Taxation Act 2017.
